Re: Who knows what about thermal wrapping on houses?
Agree , the 1985 home will be affected differently to the older ones. I'd still proceed with caution as these houses wouldn't have been designed to be wrapped in this way and it can take a period of time to see any negative affects. When I had the black mould in the 1870s house, the affects of fitti...

Re: Who knows what about thermal wrapping on houses?
I'm not an expert or work in this particular area but I have some experience with older properties abroad from the 1870's.

Re: Record player suggestions
I use a Thorens TD150 mk2. They are a simple but easily upgraded design too. Mine has an audio technica at1005mk2 tonearm fitted which adds much more detail and oomph.

Re: Interesting shops throughout Europe
On holidays recently and drove over to Marbella today to have a look around. I called into technogold - very nice equipment on display. Massive sansui 22000 and some other choice vintage stuff.
