View From The DsD desk

If I look right ...

The "Only Here For The Beer" crew at our wedding.
DarceysMam's Bridesman over my shoulder, DD's Best Man#1 in blazer, BM#2 (youknowwho) squatting, Best Bird with the shiny chest! [This is a photo of the poster-photo; best I could do at 10toRR!]















If I look left ...

Especially for Blimpy, this one. And I've left it side on to give you half a chance of reading spines.
(Helping hint: nothing in this one past about Th... - Yes, they're alphabetical, I'm a bloke!)

Just got time to pour a drink.

Damn, Gordon's squatting, not kneeling! That's what I get for rushing.

And I've no idea why the spaces have appeared - sorry.

Yes, we're proud of the fact you're not wearing socks too.

A fine display of CDs, if you have that many alphabetical ordering is essential I think (speaking as a girl with CDs in band alphabetical/album date order).

Krrch! (The sound of a can of worms being opened)
Bethnoir- I order according to colour and label... alphabetical is too counter-intuitive for me.. when I'm looking for an album I always visualize the colour of its spine... admittedly I only have about half the cds shown in DD's picture..

I used to have CDs in every room and a vaguely genre categorisation but once I got to over 1,000, I realised I was spending more time looking for them than listening to them so went to IKEA, bought the shelves and they are now alphabetical, apart from about 30 that I keep in the kitchen on a rotating basis. I'll post a photo later.

Darcey agrees with you, nilpferd. If she's in here with me and I'm working too hard to stop her, she - like the pic of nilpferd jr - regularly empties out the 2nd & 3rd shelves up (out of shot in the pic, you're looking at about 2/3 of the total maybe). She then plays by making 'towers' with them; similar pictures go on same piles, I've noticed. As they're the Various / Compilation / Magazine Covermount shelves, it makes putting them back in order a swine.

Mrs Tin gave me an MP3 rack for Christmas but I can't see it anywhere.

Seriously, when I moved from a house into a caravan some years ago, all my vinyl, CDs and tapes had to go so I spent a summer ripping them all into the computer.
