... and I'm the other Forest fan, but I live in nottingham, although
co-incidentilly I am also 27. I sort of work as a freelance computer
programmer, but I don't do much.
ANyway, about B&S:
Did anybody else think that B&S got really limited airplay for 3,6,9 ?
I listen to loads of radio ('cos I've got nothing better to do) and only
heard it played once, and that was on University Radio Nottingham. This
is ironic because I only got into B&S through hearing "The State I am
In" on Jo Wiley.
I then rushed out to try to buy it but could only find "If your feeling
sinister" in the local Our Price in Ealing (where I was living at the
time. I was initially disappointed, but soon realised that I'd stumbled
on what has become one of my favourite albums of all time. Funny that.
Iain.

It must be a connection between Midlands football teams and B&S, as I'm
a
Forest fan, and I know of at least one other on the list. I'm 27
(pushing that
B&S average age up), and am a physiology technician here in dull Oxford
(except when it's sound city, or when B&S play !!).

Hello, hello...
It's all terribly quiet.
Everyone just sitting there waiting for Manchester info? It's all
terribly exciting. On my front door as well (not literally). I'd
love to put you all up but I'll have a houseful. Sorry.
Hasn't anyone got anything to say? Edible Tigermilk reissues?
Belle and Sebastian range of underwear? Did you know Teenage Fanclub
had knickers with the band's faces on the inside? Oh what saucy
rogues.
Does anyone else like Serge Gainsbourg? Did Susannah find
'Tigermilk'? Was there a very smug man in 'Vinyl Exchange', saying
'I've got it'?
I loved the Becks-drinking frog story by the way. Did I tell you
about us recreating the infamous B&S car-crash photo on New Year's Eve
outside 'Smile'. It didn't come out and I got a cold from lying in
the snow under someone's car. I suffer for their art.
Oh you miserable lot
love Tag xxx

hullo sinister kids,
i've noticed that many who own a copy of tigermilk are in the UK...i guess
they didn't ship many out to the US...mostly as promos, maybe?
do we have any US kids or others that can say that they own a copy of tigermilk?
well, i would love to say that i am a proud owner of tigermilk but
unfortunately, i'm not a proud owner of tigermilk..although, i have been in
a mad search for tigermilk..i still haven't found a copy..i will find
it...well...maybe not..
i'm sure if i went to japan, i could find it for an outrageous price...would
i buy it, if i found it? Of course!!!
anyways, i'm sorry if this has been asked but has the B&S of sessions at w.
54th been aired yet?
since i'm writing, i'd like to say that i'm 19 and i am student...and i'm
dying to get of here...will someone help me? (michi laughs)
well, i'm off...
ta! michi**

if i lived in any of the above cities, i'd be combing the record shoppes. i
do believe kind mr. ben has hidden a copy of tigermilk on the shelves in the
depths of the led zeppelin section.

This is the lemur-getting-to-Madagascar story as it was told to me by a
disgruntled pine marten in a bar in Kingussie..
Basically there were 3 lemurs sitting in a cafe in Maputo, Mozambique.
It was a special day as the two males had just come back from a tour
upcountry and it was the first sniff of a female they had had in ages.
So there were lots of stories and general bragaddocio [who was on the
run after a failed putsch in Lima]. The lemurs were trying to convince
the unlucky female that they were both qualified engineers( I don't know
why they thought this would impress the lady but they'd had a few -
OK??)Coz they'd been drinking they were drawing up blueprints and
designs in front of her and everything was making a lot of sense. They
were proposing a kind of hydro-foil twin-masted sailing yacht. Now this
is the amazing bit because they staggered down to the beach to prove it
to the lady (let us call her Jane) when she said they were talking
bollocks. The two male lemurs made a series of cognitive leaps that have
baffled scientists ever since, and which they themselves have never been
able to repeat. They fashioned simple tools; made quick calculations of
appropriate hydro-foil angles, bribed the harbour officials, threw Jane
onboard and with a following wind were off. Progress was swift and
comfortable but having sighted land disaster struck. The boat capsized
and they were forced to swim for their lives. Exhausted they hung on to
some mats of flotting vegetation and were thus washed ashore.
Thats what Marten said...
hot love

Mighty quiet round these parts all of a sudden, ain't it?
Here's a thing. My friend Jo has just lent me this book by Toby Litt called
'Beatniks', about a couple of guys who refuse to acknowledge the existence
of anything after that day in 1966 when Mr Zimmerman pranged his pushbike.
So much so that when they decide to drive to Brighton, they realise that
they can't take the M25 because that would be, like, acknowledging that the
world had moved on in the last thirty years. 'They're kinda like Belle and
Sebastian', says Jo, 'Cos the world hasn't changed for them since the
Go-Betweens left Postcard!' HmmmÂ….
And so to the heated lemur debate. I know for a FACT that they swam to
Madagascar. The cute little creatures' aquatic abilities were well known to
dastardly German U-Boat Kapitans in WWII, who would strap mines to their
backs and point them in the direction of the nearest British ship.
