When a school trip goes wrong, Gordon finds himself stranded on a remote island marine station with his classmates. To make matters worse, a pod of confused pilot whales is beaching on the same island. Gordon and his friends must recruit a mysterious whaler who lives in the haunted lighthouse to help them rescue the whales - and themselves.

It's no mystery what money pit my money went into... 💸

🎼Any vinyl recommendations? I am thinking of getting the Ella Fitzgerald Gold albums. I'm curious what albums are MUSTS to listen to on vinyl?

CoffeeCatsBooks Lol, I kept debating on getting that record player and then it waitlisted. I was really bad yesterday. 7y
Jess_Read_This @CoffeeCatsBooks Lol! I missed out and joined the waitlist. Within minutes I was offered it and then took that as a sign I was supposed to have it 🙈 7y
DeborahSmall I bought my son a turntable for his 18th last year, he loves vinyl. His most recent buys have been most of Bowie, Muse, Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Stone Roses and my favourite twin peaks music. I'm over 3/4 finished A Darker Shade of Magic. So glad I bought the hardbacks as I love it 7y

CoffeeCatsBooks That's too funny! Glad you got it 😊. Oh and I'd recommend Nina Simone. 7y
EvieBee Nice! I hope you love My Life with Bob. I recommend Miles Davis on vinyl. 😎 7y
JenniferJarrell Any jazz is better on vinyl. I also prefer vinyl for folk like Phil Ochs and Simon and Garfunkel, as well as a lot of the '60s classic rock (The Doors, Fleetwood Mac, CSNY). I am a massive Stevie Nicks fan, and her voice on a warm vinyl record is sublime. 7y
Smangela 😍 Ella Fitzgerald will be amazing! Maybe some Nat King Cole? 7y
elliemcc11 My brother would say Stevie wonder and definitely the jazz. He's into music and vinyl whereas I'm less so. 7y
LauraBrook I always like classical on record - so warm and lovely! 7y
Jess_Read_This @DeborahSmall ohh! Good suggestions! Chili Peppers on vinyl would be good to hear. I got mine in paperback and am already regretting not splurging on the HB! 7y
Jess_Read_This @CoffeeCatsBooks omg, Nina Simone.. yes! I just put a few of her songs on my iPod this past weekend! 7y
Jess_Read_This @EvieBee84 You totally are the person who introduced me to My Life with Bob!! And Miles is being added to the lis! 7y
Jess_Read_This @JenniferJarrell Yessss!! I just put about 5 different renditions of the Sound of Silence on my iPod. Vinyl will be even better! I love the Doors and Fleetwood. I have to check out Phil Ochs! Thank you for the recommendation! 7y
Jess_Read_This @Smangela I adore Ella. I just listened to a podcast on her life and love her even more. Oh.. Nat is a must!! 7y
Jess_Read_This @elliemcc11 Thank you! I love jazz and am excited to explore the sounds on vinyl now! My brother is into vinyl too! 7y
Jess_Read_This @LauraBrook Oh.. yes.. the perfect thing for a rainy afternoon or just any afternoon spent reading! 7y
EvieBee Yay!! 7y
DeborahSmall @Jess_Read_This I had the paperbacks but knew I'd love them after I read first few pages so ordered hardbacks with my birthday money last month. So worth it ❤️ 7y

Don't know how much reading will get done in the next few days. I've had a weird sort-of maybe sinkhole in an odd spot in my backyard for a couple of weeks. The floor drain in the basement has just backed up with what looks like sewage. Then there's the fridge situation. Could it be a pipe leak under the house? Or some other mystery thing? Oy vey. Looks like I'll be using my neighbors house for the bathroom (thank goodness they're away)!

SaturnDoo Yikes😯 8y
Zelma Oh hell, I am so sorry! I completely understand the frustrations of the house going downhill and plumbing issues. 8y
Readerann Oh, so not fun. Good luck! 8y
BestOfFates ☹️ good luck! 8y
LauraBrook @Nebklvr @LeahBergen @AmandaL @SaturnDoo @Zelma @Readerann @BestOfFates Well, things aren't quite so bad as I originally thought! The sewage backup was just caused by a clogged pipe between the laundry and floor drain (& wasn't sewage just rust and gross stuff), and the sinkhole is really some kind of rusting tank that no one knew was there! (We think it was used as filler when the house was built in the 30s.) It'll be fixed by landscapers! Phew. 8y
Nebklvr @LauraBrook Thank goodness! 8y
SaturnDoo @LauraBrook whew... big sigh of relief ☺ glad it isn't as bad as it could have been. 8y
Hobbinol Goodness! Why does everything have to happen at once?! Glad you'll have your nose back in a book soon!! 8y
kspenmoll Glad to hear all ok- no wonder dreams of teeth falling out! 😍😍😍 8y
