Isn’t digital technology wonderful?

I’ve been threatening to do it for a long, long time.  Buy myself the complete film works of Laurel and Hardy in a DVD boxed set.  Alright, for the perfectionist, it isn’t quite complete, and some of the ‘prints’ are of questionable quality.  But for a true L&H fan of close to 70 years, it’ll do me nicely.

I’ve been watching the price for some time.  Started at £199, which is way out of budget.  It’s been coming down in fits and starts, though, and when I saw it on Amazon today for £34 I could sit on my hands no longer.

“Do you think I’m naughty?” I asked, seeking reassurance.

“Twenty-one disks for 34 quid?  You’d be crazy not to.  You’ve been going on about them for as long as I’ve known you.”

“OK.  Done.”
