It's the turn of the year again, already, thus it's time to select, retain and discard..This year, I've not spent as much time on the latter and as a result, have wound up with a top 100, as opposed to last year's 50, however, it has once again been a hard process, with records in the lower echelons being as pleasing as some of those in the higher ranks..Well, here goes, as usual, the top group consists of personal favourites, the second completes the top 50, the following, third grouping consists of the second 50 thus completing the 100..Each grouping is in no particular order bar that of an alphabetical nature..Enjoy!!
