Today in the UK at least is apparently known as blue Monday, the most depressing day of the year. The third Monday in January is reckonned to be this because credit card bills from Christmas have arrived and pay day is still a while off. Simple remedy to this is just put Kuiama or Bluebird is Dead on and pour yourselfanother pint of whiskey......

The band never made a penny from it apparently. The sleeve was specially made and cost a lot.

I remember back when my dad first showed me this as a young Trekkie, I thought it was the weirdest music video ever.

It's the only vinyl single I treat like a work of art. You never know, some times you hear of misprints fetching silly money. I bought the single but I can’t find my copy keep looking after yours.

It could be but mine doesn't have the silver inner. I didn't know there were so many different versions! My other copy is this www.discogs.com/New-Order-Blue-Monday/release/20755 I make it a rule to always rescue a copy if I come across it but I haven't seen many.

On my local radio they were suggesting we follow the Samaritans' idea of making it Brew Monday - where we try to get together over a cuppa with someone who we've not seen for a while or who just might need cheering up. This is a lot more positive than just expecting to feel miserable. I commend this idea to the house
