number one

[administrator]

read a post on damien's message board about a guy who was thrown out of hmv in oxford street for putting a copy of "o" in the number 1 position of the charts and thought it might be good to do that in hmv stores everywhere! who's with me?

[janedoe]

Class! smileys/smiley10.gif But I just applied for a job thre so maybe not such a good idea??smileys/smiley3.gif

[Pete]

i put a copy of O over the speical edition thinktank by blur to show how blur copied the little book idea :)

OK now i found the thread, i can tell you....


i work in woolworths and we have never had 'O' in our chart since i have worked there (3 and a half years)...anyway last week we got a new delivery and shining like a beacon in between the riff-raff, there it was, to be released on monday (15th)...i know, could they be more behind if they tried, so anyway i go into work today and it's at number 58, 58 i ask you!?!?!? surely that cannot be right??? 'No' i thought to myself, 'this is not right, i would be doing eskimo friends everywhere a disservice if i did not correct this!!!'


so...yay...i finally had the chance to do what you all have been doing and put it on the number one spot!!!!


sorry for getting so excited but it is the first time i have seen 'O' in a recordstore near me as we don't have an HMV or a Tower or a Virgin or any independent record store for that matter.....ok i'm rambling, i'll shut up now!!

[Gatsby]

Did you not get fired for putting it there? smileys/smiley4.gif

[Wheels]

[Vienna]

No no cos i wasn'tactually working, i was just browsing!!! and we only had three copies so it wasn't like i was really doing anything that wrong!!! and besides i'm not gonna be back there til Xmas now cos i'm back off to uni in a few days!!! i'm gonna miss you guys!!!!smileys/smiley19.gif
