Peak-End Rule

 - Look, these are all my old records

- In this barn?

- Yes, they've been here for decades. This is a rare copy of Last Train Home by the Undertones. Even Peel never heard it

- In this freezing barn on the top of a hillside?

- Yes and this is the original of Stinks of Locker Room Pride by Hole

- I don't think

- I used to buy so many singles. K-Hole 3000 by Kraftwerk, with The Speaking Calculator on the B side. Haven't heard that in ages

- You really believe this pile of crumbling artefacts 

- I wish I had a jukebox to play them on, a proper old school Wolitzer

- Take my hand. Look at this view

- It's like that painting The Natural Heart by Friedrich Wilhelm Richter

- Your fingers are like icicles. I can't see your breath

- Why are my priceless records in a barn at the top of a mountain though

- It's more of a hill. And it's time to go now

- Wait. I want to sing one more song
