Pete, if you ever get back to the UK, look out for an Italian restaurant called Frankie and Benny's. In the restaurant they play all the oldies and they are great, but they do a 4 CD pack and it is jam packed of great Oldie's music.

I know it yep used to go there in the good old days when you could have a smoke ,, ahhhh the good old days lol

Now i dont use any establishment that refuses smokers on principle . I have every oldy in the world probably well not the world slight exageration lol but a damn good collection its just nice to have a station which has a mix of oldies which i dont know the order there coming etc ..
