… which means either the people at HMV Hong Kong are retail geniuses, or the population of China’s SAR are slightly backward/honest.

is that it? where the fuck is the inane rambling and tenuous fucking link to planning or adland? what shit are you trying to pull here campbell?
and i have no fucking idea why hmv would open a fucking store in hk when youre now residing in commie central. i also didnt realise that the hmv pooch looks like hes about to take a massive fucking dump. makes sense because who the fuck buys music and dvds any fucking more. except rob “i want to own the original of every piece of audio and film shit ever made” campbell.
this is back to your usual shit but much much fucking shorter. whats wrong? has j left you or something. if she has then its your pain our fucking gain.
Comment by andy@cynic April 6, 2011 @ 6:01 amShe’s still with me … or at least I think she is … you can thank the need to get to the airport for the short post, but I’ll make up for it tomorrow, as I know how much you miss it.
Comment by Rob April 6, 2011 @ 6:43 ami raise a fucking glass to whoever books your travel arrangements, long may it fucking continue.
Comment by andy@cynic April 6, 2011 @ 6:51 amWell you should double toast them because the flights got mixed up and I’m not going till tomorrow.
Now if only I’d found that out prior to [1] waking up at 5am and [2] getting to the airport.
Laugh it up you bastard, laugh it up.
Comment by Rob April 6, 2011 @ 12:03 pmand why the fuck is this post out earlier than usual? typo or jetlag?
what the fuck is happening over there. and dont think i really care because i couldnt really give a fuck.
Comment by andy@cynic April 6, 2011 @ 6:03 amIs HMV a museum for how people used to do shit?
Comment by Billy Whizz April 6, 2011 @ 6:07 ammore like a fucking memoriam.
Comment by andy@cynic April 6, 2011 @ 6:13 amI also share Andy’s concerns relating to the length of this post, it simply isn’t the sort of thing the Robert we all know and occasionally enjoy, does.
Comment by George April 6, 2011 @ 6:31 amI remember when HMV was regarded as the posh record shop, only seen in major cities, like McDonald’s.
When I was growing up, records (LP’s, EP’s, 12″ remixes & singles) were purchased at WH Smiths, Boots or Our Price records but then fast food meant Wimpy and nothing else.
Anyone who say’s life hasn’t improved isn’t old enough to remember what it was once like.
you used to buy records? you didnt tape the shit off the sunday night chart show? you fucking rich bastard. youll be saying you used to get smash hits delivered to your fucking door with your parents newspaper next. middle class social fucking climber.
Comment by andy@cynic April 6, 2011 @ 6:35 amI used to read the NME, but thank you for revealing your past so openly Andrew. Admitting to reading Smash Hits would take great courage.
Comment by George April 6, 2011 @ 6:37 amyou fucking wanker. anyway it was my fucking sisters even though i didnt have one. at least it wasnt that heavy metal shit kerrang, a pile of wank that campbell used to sneak out of the office to buy every fucking wednesday morning and probably still does hoping to catch a fucking snippet on queen. twat.
Comment by andy@cynic April 6, 2011 @ 6:41 amDon’t diss Kerrang … though it is responsible for getting me a written warning for what Rupert Howell classified as basically skiving. Oh the good ol’ days …
Comment by Rob April 6, 2011 @ 6:46 amback then you used to get a written warning or a bollocking every other fucking week, thats when you were interesting and almost fun to work with.
Comment by andy@cynic April 6, 2011 @ 6:52 amInteresting and almost fun to work with? You’re talking about Rob? Rob Campbell?
Comment by Billy Whizz April 6, 2011 @ 7:10 amhow could you play records when electricity hadn’t been invented yet?
Comment by Billy Whizz April 6, 2011 @ 7:11 am1) relatively speaking he was. still a cock compared to every other fucker though.
2) fuck off you little twat. just because you dress like a fucking 12 year old doesnt excuse the fact youre no spring bastard chicken.
Comment by andy@cynic April 6, 2011 @ 7:17 amI do still read my blog Andy – I can see your comments, just in case you didn’t realise that!
Comment by Rob April 6, 2011 @ 12:17 pmGod your comment about W H Smiths, Boots, Our Price and Wimpy brings back some memories George. I am so glad I was not the only one who suffered such a bad childhood either, ha!
Comment by Rob April 6, 2011 @ 6:45 amsmash hits?
Comment by andy@cynic April 6, 2011 @ 6:51 amI used to work in a Wimpy. 3 1/2 years, man and boy. They still exist, albeit mostly at service stations.
Comment by Will April 6, 2011 @ 4:09 pmYou worked at Wimpy for three and a half years! Murderers get less … respect. Or commiseration’s.
Comment by Rob April 6, 2011 @ 7:18 pmI had a Wimpy last year, biggest rip off of a burger I have ever had the misfortune to buy. Was about £6 and was about the size of a £99p McDonalds cheeseburger
Comment by Rob Mortimer April 6, 2011 @ 8:38 pmwhat disturbs me is that i also thought the HMV dog looks like he’s taking a shit.
Comment by lauren April 6, 2011 @ 8:41 amgreat fucking minds blah blah fucking blah.
Comment by andy@cynic April 6, 2011 @ 9:12 amand fools rarely differ, blah blah blah
Comment by lauren April 6, 2011 @ 11:34 amDoes anyone remember Look In?
Comment by northern April 6, 2011 @ 4:36 pmAnd I welcome a shorter post as it allows more time to read the comments and let’s face it, that’s where the action is
Sadly I do remember that mag and even more sadly, I know that the comments are the only reason people come to this blog. Does that make me sad or just honest? Or both?
Comment by Rob April 6, 2011 @ 5:34 pmIs that the one in the shopping centre where we were the other week?
Comment by Rob Mortimer April 6, 2011 @ 4:59 pmdid you share a moment in hk? how fucking romantic.

Comment by andy@cynic April 6, 2011 @ 9:54 pmHMV has about as much to do with music these days as MTV.
