Good on yer DP! It would be interesting to note how much an equivalent haul would cost through the good folks on Amazon, for example. P&P costs of £1.30 per disc at least means that you've beaten the market on this one. Trouble is, it would cost me at least 30 quid in petrol to get to Folkestone and back.

But you'd have the pleasure of a visit to Folkestone

A paddle on the beach -


and plenty of entertainment -




(I'm being rather unkind to Folkestone, which does have a (biannual?) arts festival)
