Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch

Hello folks. It's my sister's 40th birthday and I am looking for some help from you all. I was looking at various personalised gifts online but am worried someone else will do the same. So then I started thinking about doing something different and more effortful. She loves books so I was thinking books published in 1976, which led me onto:

Song or album that was Number 1 when she was born
Book published 1976
Classic film from 1976....

Any other ideas along same lines....
Any suggestions for the above books, films....

I made my friend a cd of tracks that were hits in 1976 including the Number One on her birthday. She loved it as it was something unique and personal to her.

Girlie - fab idea. Playlist sorted now for the 'getting it onto a disc' bit.

HB - I've had a look at the newspapers but you can't get a preview of what the front page looks like or anything. Hmmm!
