Is This the Way to Camarillo?

There comes a time when one has to say that enough is enough. When BSH first went online in 2008 the occasional CD for review was heartily welcomed. However, the subsequent success of the blog has resulted in an avalanche of CDs, downloads etc. that I can no longer cope with the load.

Below are just some of the items I've had to pass over and that's not counting the downloads which are usually totally outside the concept of BSH (don't ask me to explain that concept as I no longer know what it is myself!) so please, if you email me and I don't reply I'm not being discourteous it's through sheer overload. Like the legendary camel, the next CD may be my equivalent of the straw that did for the camel!*
