A Belated Vintage Tips, Tutorials and Links Round-Up

 

International ‘Goldfinger’ soundtrack covers from How to be a Retronaut
This round up should have come to you on Friday, as with all the wonders of modern travel I had planned to finish it on the train journey up to Scotland for a wedding this weekend. However the ‘wonders’ of modern travel turned out to be predictably unreliable, as after paying for wifi it became apparent my power access wasn’t working, and my laptop subsequently died halfway through putting this together. Thank you as always, Virgin Trains.
So you lucky things, you will get two round-ups this week – enjoy!
