Sinister: No Wonder I Get Funny Looks All The Time
by Pamela Tait 10 Nov '00

10 Nov '00

God, I'm starving. Anyway......do any of you have sort of pet names for members of Belle & Sebastian. I do. I call Chris Geddes "Cheddii Jedi Geddii". I call Stuart Murdoch "Stroke My Dog". I call Isobel something not very nice and I'll refrain from disclosing the name cos I'll get a backlash. Anyone living in the Glasgow area should check out Chris Geddes @ Yang on a Tuesday night. On the way out, you have to go upstairs. Remember this as I walked straight into a mirrored wall and then nearly fell down a cellar. In fact, while I'm here, all you Glasgow members should mail me and we'll get a big Christmas meet up sorted out. Okay. I'll go now.... Be safe, people. Love Pamela ...................................................... I AM OBSESSED WITH BOTTLE GREEN MINI COOPERS.

Sinister: If Wishes Could Be Kisses
by Pauline L. Shivers 10 Nov '00

10 Nov '00

Hello the Land of Sinister! So, have you missed me? You have no other choice really but miss me! It's been a while since my last post and life has been generous to me as ever! Oh I've been so busy! I was running around with Althea's cousin and my cousin too, as I found out, little Violette Marie de Mesforets! I told you about her, didn't I? she's so sweet! We went shopping in Prague! this girl seems to be so demure!! but really, appearences are deceiving! So, we went shopping just me and Violette because Althea is really busy with the boyfriend Egon! Her parents were away to a trip to Paris for the weekend so we had a party at her house! You can't imagine what happened there! Of course my sweet Daniel was there and I spent the whole weekend with him! He's too sweet to me actually and I do like my boys to have an edge, if you know what I mean! So, I'm getting a bit bored with him... true love is yet to come? I don't know. Violette came to my house to get dressed up for the party and pack some clothes as we were going to spend the weekend at Althea's house!! I swear, we spent more time trying to decide what underwear we should wear and take with us than trying to figure out what to wear for the party... finally, Violette decided she should wear a white semi-transparent dress... mind, she wore a nice slip underneath!I told you she is very shy! And I wore the latest possession of my wardrobe, a very nice silk grey dress; the thing with this dress is that it looks very conservative if you look at it from the front, but, well, if I turn you can see that my whole back is naked! anyway, I thought I should wear this dress no matter what! I paid a fortune for it, didn't I? The tricky part was underwear! I wore black stockings, that's all I'm going to tell you because if I said anything more honey would kick me from this list and suggest I should go to another one, more, erm, adult! And yes, we were ready for the party! Big Aunt Myrtles was very worried but I told her that every aristocratic sprout from Prague was going to be there and she loves Violette also, so, she finally gave her permission! Cousin Theodor came with us; I think Violette likes him a lot; she doesn't know he's gay yet, and to be honest, he doesn't show it! I think I have to fill her in with every naughty detail! To be honest it'd be great if Violette married Theodor; she's so sweet and he is too! they'd love each other and look after each other and will lead different sexual lives! what's wrong with that? nothing methinks! And we'll get rid of this french horsefaced floosy too! So, we went to the party! everyone was there! I saw this very cute waiter and started talking with him; he told me he was a poor art student who was doing this job occasionally and asked me to go to his studio to see his work! I agreed of course!! I haven't lost it yet, have I? There was a very intense moment between the two of us actually which reinforced my desire to go and visit him at his studio! At one moment he dropped something on the floor whilst we were talking; so, he kneeled down to pick it up and whilst he was getting up he hair was rubbed against my legs; then he raised his eyes and looked at me! I'm telling you he took my breath away; and it all looked so innocent!! Daniel was standing by my side when this happened and he didn't realise anything! He thinks my "association" with the lower classes is something admirable and extremely sweet!! So, who can blame me then? But something very weird happened to my little Violette! I guess she's very flirtatious without even realising it! She was talking with this mexican guy whose father runs a mobile phone company in Mexico and sent him over to Europe because of a scandal he caused when he was caught with the wife of his partner; she was 20 years older than him! Imagine! Anyway, Violette was talking with him about stuff and told him she had always wanted to visit Mexico, so he gave her his address and told her she could visit whenever she wanted to! She leaned over to write her phone number in his phone book when he started biting and kissing her neck!! I don't know why or how this happened but I can tell you that Violette didn't like it a bit! She ran to Theodor who got really protective and tried to punch the guy on the face but thankfully we avoided the fight! Egon was there snogging and dancing with Althea! He brought me a glass of champagne whilst I was leaning against the balcony door and asked me how I was etc etc; I said I was fine and then he said sliding his hand on my back "you know Pauline, you were always my first choice"!! And I was so shocked that couldn't help myself. I just turned to face him - and of course make him take his hand off my back - and said "Well, you were never mine! You conceited bastard!" Violette who witnessed the whole scene came running to me asking what happened. Now the problem is how we are going to tell Althea! When the party was over, or at least, almost over, as these parties never end, we went to our rooms. But not before I take the cute waiter's address! We could hear Egon and Althea doing whatever they were doing! I really cannot understand how Althea fell for a 'new money' bloke! We were always saying that it's so much better to be with a commoner than with a new money guy! You see, being with a commoner has certain romantic parametres; makes you look like one of these heroines in french literature, you know! But being with new money, well, it's just a disgrace! The rest of the weekend passed in a harmonic way, at least on the surface! we went horseriding and Althea and Violette had a quite intense argument about the way a lady should be riding her horse; side riding or normal riding? Violette is side riding and she always wears these long velvet black dress with a white lace slip! she looks dreamy! I like riding the proper way! I think it's more exciting! Egon kept away from me for the rest of the weekend and we didn't see the mexican bloke again! I'm going to the artist-waiter's studio tonight! He's expecting me! Just the thought of him!! Oh anyway, I just hope aunt Myrtles learns nothing about it! Pauline L. Shivers that makes sinister all quivers she's that aristocratic slag who lives and reigns in Prague __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Thousands of Stores.

Sinister: I used to be confused but now I don't know
by Laura Llew 10 Nov '00

10 Nov '00

Take a walk in the park, take a valium pill Read the letter you got from the memory girl But it takes more than this to make sense of the day Yeah it takes more than milk to get rid of the taste.... It's ME - Laura Llew! Once again, I am posting in order to help your delete finger become more dexterious. See, what kind of nice milkmaid I am? Last time I rambled to your poor aching ears, we were in the midst of preparation for the best holiday ever - Halloween. Now, we poor Americans are in the throes of an election gone awry. If you think about it, Halloween and elections are quite similar. They both start out with promises of sweetness but only end up leaving you ill and doubled up in cramps wishing it would all just GO AWAY. Stuart Murdoch is in my Journalism class! Oooh, aren't you simply chartreuse with envy! Of course, I still haven't figured out what he's doing pretending to be a 20 year old American named Andy but he still looks cute in those tight teez. I let him know that I was on to him by commenting that he indeed looks like Stuart Murdoch (which he knows since it's OBVIOUSLY him). Of course, he played innocent and ignorant - acting as if he had never heard of himself! It was silly but I played the game, even offering to make him a tape of Belle and Sebastian. (He's probably just wondering if I'll pick what he thinks are his best songs on there.) I must say though that he has an American accent down really well. I hope that he and you will excuse my lack of list spirit in not participating in the Auction. I was going to send something in but then the deadline hit. That was that. However, I think it's lame that we can't bid on items with other services instead of money. Stinkin' capitalist! That is fine if you're GEORGE DICKIE but otherwise. Well, I guess it is going to charity so I can't really complain. (Ha! I can always complain). I still want to offer something even if it can't be bid on. So, I made a list (surprise surpise) and if anyone wants anything from here - let me know: *Ask not what you can do for Llew but what Laura Llew can do for YOU* 5. Lots of listees have mentioned that they can't drive and so I will patiently tutor you in the ways of the road. I will even teach you how to use the turn signal which is a something that is still commonly undiscovered to many drivers today. 4. Haven't you always wanted a crocheted bookmark? They're twee! They're dainty! They're knot knitted! I would offer to do something larger like a blanket but I'm currently in the midst of a PINK CAPE for prissy chrissy. Oh yes! What a masterpiece it will be and it shall soon overtake JenOwl's Pedro as the most talked about cape on the list. 3. Speaking of JenOw - what kind of hoodlums do they let run around Scotland fracturing sweet girl's skulls with large rocks??? I guess I can relate since in school we also had hard kids, except for they were known as 'rednecks'. In math class in high school, I had a similiar experience when this boy who really hated me (for still unknown reasons) became so enraged one day that he TORE off the top of a desk and threw it at my head. My face was turned at the time and so I didn't even see it coming. Plus, I have a tendencies toward head injuries anyway. (I once had three concussions in 6 months and I should simply stay inside where I belong). Anyway, my third offer is to either RESCUE Jen from that mean evil place or move there to become her bodyguard. I can enroll in her school (hey, if I was on a WB show I would still be a freshman in hs so I can get away with it) and protect her. I'm pretty wimpy (I had to have my little sister open a jar for me yesterday) but I have sharp teeth and I can bite hard. And, no, that last thought cannot be used for an offer for anything else. Sorry. 2. I'm quite skilled at picking lots with an emphasis on apartment door's deadbolts. With the exception of one night of boredom and deliquency when a friend and I snuck into an apartment, rearranged all of the furniture, and then quietly left - I only use my skillz for good. So, if you have a habit of leaving your keys behind or I dunno, accidently swallowing them - I can help! AND the #1 thing that Ll can do for you: 1. Make a list for you! (Though Mick Cooke certainly wouldn't put it on the B&S top ten list. If MY pixies list isn't good enough for him, nothing ever done by me will be!) I would actually have offered to go on a roadtrip (which I love!) or invited whoever to come & stay at my house here in the mountains North Carolina (since people always seem to visit the wrong parts of the US). However, I would have felt bad because that's the kind of thing that depends on the person bidding. I couldn't really handle any psychos, phreaks, homicidal maniacs, or anyone else who closely resembles members of my family. But boy do I have a crocheted bookmark that is just SCREAMING your name! Everyone else claims not to be listening to B&S lately but all of my cd slots are filled with the ear candy that is Belle and Sebastian. I keep falling in love again with different songs. This week it has been Sleep the Clock Around, Dirty Dream #2, and after being serenaded with this song by a cute boy yesterday - Judy and the Dream of Horses. I'm currently trying to make another B&S compilation tape since the one I made last November is obsolete because of the new album. However, I am having *so* much trouble and nothing is clicking. So, if any of you had made similar mix tapes and found a really good string of b&s songs that flow really well pleasepleaseplease let me know so I can steal it. After all, I am making a copy of this tape for "Andy". Laura "meeting all those Laura Llew needs since 1977" PS- Sorry for confusing the 2 andreas in my last post. They're both darlings though and so its easy to get them mixed up. _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.

Sinister: LLBS
by Jeff Hunt 09 Nov '00

09 Nov '00

Yes, the title stands for "Ladies Love Belle & Sebastian" Since this my first "Complete" post to Sinister, I guess an introduction is in order. I'm Jeff, I live in Portland Oregon, I am 18. How's that? So anyway, out of sheer boredom, I submitted a personal ad into a local "Alternative NewsWeekly" magazine called The Portland Mercury. The ad follows: LOOKING FOR MY PARTNER IN CRIME I'm a young boy looking for an ookums-cute indie girl to run around town with. If the following words excite you, then you might be her: Belle & Sebastian, record shopping, Ground Kontrol, short hair, sweaters, Vespa. This is will be very interesting. Who wants to bet money that this will/won't get a response? And for those of you who are not from Portland, "Ground Kontrol" is a video game arcade featuring old arcade games from the 1970s and 1980s; games like Missile Command, Pac Man, Frogger, and Space Invaders. And I've heard B&S on the PA there a few times.

Sinister: All my friends are joining the pob bandwagon
by Niall Barr 09 Nov '00

09 Nov '00

Hi people, HEADINGS I'm going to do headings today... GIGS Lots of people are playing gigs in Glasgow next week... According to a drunken trumpet player called Mick that I met in the pub last week 'The Gentle Waves' are doing a gig for 'The Beat Room' (BBC Choice -Scotland music series) which probably will be in G2 on Wednesday 15th. The next day V-Twin (including Chris, Stevie and Richard) will be on stage in the Arches. The Telstar Ponies will be there too, and someone else who's name I've forgotten. V-Twin's singles album is now in the shops - £12.99 from Fopp, or £5 from amazon.co.uk... The even have a whole row of the new releases stand in HMV! On Friday it's Sodastream - they weren't going to do a Scottish gig this tour because they think we don't have any venues, but Mick and Stuart pulled strings, so on Friday 17th they'll be playing Hyndland Parish Church Hall at 8 p.m, possibly with a DJ called Beans Geddis as well. CD:UK! A few months ago we took on a person to do all the really boring menial tasks at work that I can't be bothered with. A musician.. Musicians are safe because they never succeed... This week he took time off to go to London to recruit dancer's for his appearance on CD:UK in a couple of weeks. So all go out and prevent people buying Operation Blade by Public Domain so he is forced to come back to work and I can stop having to set up lecture theatres..

Sinister: this one ROCKS!!
by David Moore 09 Nov '00

09 Nov '00

Hi All, Spent a bizarre evening yesterday with assorted lovely & lovable members of the Sinister family at The Spitz watching a purveyor of Belgian loungecore & The Clientele, who were fantastic despite (or more probably, because of) the drawbacks of the venue. Which are: The shape of the room means that the fuckwits chattering at the bar are very audible from the stage. Most of the area being taken up with the chairs & tables surrounding the stage, a large part of the audience are pushed to the walls, making the space directly in front of the stage the walkway to transit the room. Its really obvious when someone gets up from a chair to go for a drink or pee or whatever, & it looks like they're walking out. I wouldn't like to perform there, especially if I were reluctant or sensitive :) Mr Ovendon wanted to know how much The Big Issue Foundation gets from each cool Christmas LP: £4 is I think the answer. Still undecided about A Swansong For You. I think I like a few of the songs, but its been deposed from the car player already (bad sign) by the shiny digital Robbo-produced Foxgloves. Today I had to shut the car windows because tree fellers were fainting as I drove by with songs of Stevenage & SE* blaring out. I have however decided about the new improved smutty, raunchy, hard-drinking rock chick Isobel. She's great & anyone who doesn't like her is horrible. Maybe Youn could help us out, too. When Select quotes her as saying "Ooh, that wind's going right up my skirt ... mind you, there are some people who might like that!" to what do you think the second "that" refers? Cut, Hillary, Sew :) David Moore Weblogged Essex +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: Because head injuries are right up there high on the comedy factor. Yup.
by JENOWL22＠aol.com 09 Nov '00

09 Nov '00

Hewwo, That subject line was said in my best bitter sarcastic voice. Because guess what not fun things I've been doing. Well on Friday one of the hard kids threw a big massive stone at my head which hurt and about five minutes later I fainted all over the floor of the Town Centre and this was something that all the people watching found really funny, so they just left me there until I came to and then yelled stuff at me, and my friend got a bit mad because she was in a hurry and she couldn't be doing with my lack of ability to stay conscious, so she put me on a bus home. Then the next day my head really hurt so on Saturday night I my mum dragged me to accident and emergency where they said I probably had a fractured skull and so I waited for three hours until I passed out from the pain but this time no one laughed they just put me on a bed and stuck needles in me and I don't really remember much because I was only half conscious but I'm told they took x rays and the doctors were a bit tee-ed off because I wasn't making much sense. So that was my big adventure for the weekend. But my other friend who cares made me go to the police and now they're all going to get me for it. But I was back at school today and everyone seemed to think it was really funny and went about congratulating the guys that did it. Now I will make up for my sort of roundabout way of explaining that most of my sinister e mail got deleted (because I have not been online at all and my in box is teensy tiny, and my friend has just got e mail and has sent me about 50 chain e mails (literally) telling me that I will have very bad luck if i don't forward them) by talking about belle and sebastian. Or I would if I could think of anything to say. I was reaeding Ink Movies the other night. It's a shame Stuart David left. He was the only one who could grow any stubble. Stubble growing is important to a band. It gives it a certain...stubble. I really don't like cheese. Sometimes when I'm reading sinister posts I forget that I'm on sinister and I just think 'wow, all these people are sending me e mails about belle and sebastian. They must know that it's my favourite band'. Then I think that I'm pretty silly for someone in full time education. Chris sent me a lovely e mail which made me feel much better. I have to go now. Sorry for boring you.

Sinister: Happy Holiday

hello everyone, how are you all? i'm very pleased to tell you that i've just completed doing my time in the underworld of work and extra works. it's been odd. when you don't get to sleep much for a long time. your thought process seems to slip, a lot like record slipping the needle. i keep forgetting if i've eaten or not, for example. because feeling tired and feeling hungry is a bit alike, is it not? there's a restaurant opening right in front of my workplace! talking about a gift from god. also just opening in front of my workplace is a sport information something company. they being my neighbour i got a bit curious of what exactly they're doing. after investigation from various sources, i came to conclusion that they are in fact a football booker. which is amazing since Thailand police are supposed to find gambling of any kind illegal. but there they are, with the fancy shiny office and receptionists. although with a lot of curtains and various staff with unspecific duty. god give me strength, as burt would say. what else is new with my life and my beloved and approaching winter country...bangkok is getting so cool! i've been dining by the river a lot because of that. it's fun to get shivering by the wind once a year. i've just bought the loveliest pink shoe! by destiny! i can swear something made me walk to that shop that i didn't have any business at all to be. and there she is, waiting for me. the only pair. the only size. mine. hahahaha sorry, i've been into pink so much lately. oblivious to whatever the in colour for this season is. pink is definitely a state of mind. when you're tired, pink = cheer up and calm down at the same time. i've been into dictionary a lot lately too, due to work. a lot of good words. like pelly melly. it's so Peter Miller. or was it your nickname last year? i also saw what majordomo means. that's totally funny word. probably because OMO is the name of cleaning product here. and peter, that Who log you're talking about...it reminds me of the Blair Witch Project. but have fun! what else? my friends had a car accident on saturday night. like in movie! the car rolled rolled and turned upside down. it happened on the bridge, so they're so lucky it didn't rolled the other way and fell down into the river. i am even luckier. due to being told to work on sunday. or i would have been in that car. but my friends are not badly hurt anyway. only one bleed and wounded and needed stitches. the rest are totally unharmed, amazingly enough. only clothes torn a lot. so, the lesson in this story is don't drink and race. amen. has anyone notice that there's no Thailand in b&s auction? no one, of course. but me. i want to bid stuart's driving me! let me quote him again because it gives me such good kick just picture that in my head heheh > There is nothing I would like more than to put on > > my little black uniform, my cap and my gloves, and > > to ferry you about in a dignified manner in Max the black Granada. > > I''ll only speak to you when spoken to, if that is what you like > i see the bid is now at 135! by eliaeinhorn US. without a doubt the best thing money can buy! i'm too broke to fight. and i'm sure this will go up a lot soon. can someone talk him into double up as a rent driver boy? at least when i go over. i promise i'll be very strict and masterly. isn't it this time Adrian's baby coming out? Adrian, if possible, keep the baby in until christmas, so that you can call her/him Christmas! like the jame bond girl, i think. that's such a lovely name. and Amanda and Steve is getting married this weekend! Congratulations! and it's december soon too. december is the happy holiday month. so please accept my my Happy Holiday wishes to you all. actually, the baby doesn't have to come out on christmas to be called Chirstmas. so no need to hold it. oon xxx +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.
