Hallo there, hallo,
can anyone hear me?
I'm not actually on this list, I'm on the Divine Comedy list Europop, but
there seems to be a huge overlap between the two so I hope no one minds me
butting in too much...
I'd just like to take this chance to advertise a Belle & Sebastian fanzine
a friend of mine has been working on for donkey's years and has just
managed to finally get it printed.
I told the E-poppers that she was a bit despondent about selling more than
a handful of copies, and they suggested I tell you about it, so here I
am...
It's called "Bus Stop", it's by a lurvely gal called Kristen and you can
get your mitts on a copy by sending £1 and an A5 SAE to:
Bus Stop,
19 Caburn Heights
Southgate West,
Crawley
West Sussex,
RH11 8QX
Although I'd be the first to hold my hand up to accusations of bias, it
really is a jolly good read, including things like:
-an exclusive interview with Mark Radcliffe on why he loves B&S (no,
honestly)
-why Buses are the new rock'n'roll
-that Roald Dahl/B&S link explained in full
and if that hasn't got you going, take a look at Rathmines' sister site
which has a lot of other stuff about this fab fanzine:

Ding ding!

Well, I dont know exactly what you meant by 'arty,' but Jeanette Winterson is
a pretty fine author. Certainly an artist with the written word. Her books
have all these lovely sentences that youll want to shout in the face of
everyone you meet, enlightening them: "History is a string full of knots...the
best you can do is admire it, and maybe knot it up a bit more..." The Passion
is a good place to start if youve not read anything of hers before. Short and
leaving you thirsty. Read it with the Magnetic Fields' "Josephine" playing in
the background.
All of you must have lots of time to read now too, after having failed all
those exams and whatnot....alas, I have a whole week to wait before mine
begin...

Anyone know of any 'arty' books out there???
To Gen: I like "Speedway Star" now. I promise not

Anyway, bye...

I've never seen a fox in the snow, but a squirrel just crossed my path
carrying a baby in its mouth (at least I think it was its baby, I dismissed
the thought that it was a fellow squirrel, and cannabalism was at large).
What with that, and the iminent arrival of a new B+S album, I'm very happy.
Just thought I'd let you all know.

picnics with my mum and dad never even got that far...
they would consist of driving to some so-called picturesque location,
finding that it had started to rain halfway there, and sitting in a car
park, in the car, eating the picnic and admiring the (ahem) 'view'. (ie we
might as well have sat in the garage at home) geez, you'd think they'd
learn, but this happened every time...
think i will have my own picnic when on holiday next week. maybe. the
people we are renting the house from must be mad. I mean, would you rent
your house out to ten 18 year olds? i don't think so. am especially worried
about the open fire. and the lake. am forseeing multiple injuries...

Well since everyone's enjoying the picnic / drinking session down in
London at the moment, and I'm stuck here revising (or at least attempting
to revise), I thought I'd take an hour off to hold my own pretend picnic.
So I dug out a plastic plate which hasn't been eaten off (or cleaned)
since last summer. I then ate some plain bread rolls, followed by some
cheese slices on their own, because noone remembered to bring a knife.
After that I had a Scotch Egg and some potato salad (of course noone would
ever dream of eating either except at a picnic).
It was at round about this time that the first major argument occurred
between me and my parents.
At this point I realised that it wasn't nearly realistic enough, so I
finished my food whilst sitting next to a wasps' nest.
At this point, 5 people complained that they hadn't had enough food and
were still hungry; and everyone else packed away all the uneaten food
which noone liked.
Next, I stood under the shower for 20 minutes, wearing sunglasses, saying
"It's OK, there's no need to move, the rain's easing off now" every 30
seconds.
It was at round about this time that the fifth major argument occurred
between me and my parents.
Eventually I packed it all up, pausing for a brief moment to wonder how
there was more stuff left than there was at the start, and why I bothered
taking a frisbee which never got used all day.
Tomorrow morning I will wake up and wonder how I managed to get sunburnt,
despite the fact that the sun didn't come out all day.
All in all, it was a fine day. I must do it again sometime.

I don't like Vegemite, but I looooooveeeee Lamingtons. My friend Amy's mom
made them for my birthday one year. Mmm... I can still taste them. Almost.
Anyone check out Sonic Youth's new "art" video last night? It starred a
rat-faced Macauly Caulkin and was directed by Harmony Korine. The mix of the
song (Sunday) was very strange, too. Poor music editing, I say.
