Ken said something in the chatroom: what sort of anniversary is a fifth
anniversary? I mean, we know a 50th anniversary is a golden jubilee
and a 25th anniversary is a silver jubilee. So what's a fifth
anniversary?
The answer, it appears (according to Google, at least), is: a fifth
anniversary is a Wood Jubilee. So, if you want to send Honey a present
to mark Sinister's fifth birthday, you know what you have to do. You
have to Get Wood. Ahem.
Incidentally, I've probably mentioned it before, but this is one of my
favourite posts of the last five years. Probably because it's about
the place where I walk to work every day.
http://www.missprint.org/sinister/mhonarc/199803/msg00011.html And
it's quite funny too.
Earlier today, I was out shopping with Idleberry in preparation for the
Camera Obscura gig tomorrow (is anyone going? I hope so). We were in
Topshop admiring their corduroys, when a shop-worker brushed passed,
stopped, and pointed at Idles' "Study At Stow" tshirt. "Belle and
Sebastian!" he said, and started talking to us about music for five
minutes. He ended up offering to make Idles a Smiths mixtape, I think,
but only if she goes back to Topshop in the three days left before he
runs away to become a monk, or something. It was all a bit bizarre
really.
This definitely didn't take fifteen minutes. I am contrite.
love
caitlin

Hiya Sinister!
Ben and I were talking about how we should try to have some sort of
Red Knicker Day picnic here in the Los Angeles area. We have cooked
up a loose plan surrounding the Los Angeles Galaxy soccer match at
the Rose Bowl in Pasadena on Saturday, August 31st. We can meet
there with our food items and our red knickers on, find a nice shady
knoll to relax on and then get tickets to watch our local team and
cheer them on in wannabe Brit football hooligan style. It really was
a lot of fun when we did a picnic capped off with soccer last month,
so if you live in the L.A. area and you're interested in joining us,
please feel free to send me an email so we can firm up the plans.
This also could be your last chance to meet the charming Ben Apps in
person before he returns to London on September 15th, so don't miss
out! Everyone is welcome! :)
love,
Rachel fruitloop

hey everybody!
so that's it all over, ,no more shitty job in boots!
i hate the frickin factory. it's made my life boring,
and it's made me think about things too. working from
4:30 - 10:30 monday to thursay and 11pm - 3 am on
friday and saturday and maybe wednesday or thursday
too isn't fun. i've spent my summer wasting, just
sitting around trying to beat manky marks record
(wink) by the way check out casarotto's blog.
so next week i'm starting studying at stow.
electric honey a go-go, which reminds me that i want
an original starfighter pilot single by polar bear
(snow patrol) so if anyones gota spare.......... i'm
starting an electric honey collection i think i have
one already, and last years output of police chief
seems like a sensible buy, but i haven't bought it
yet.
now for the fortnightly question (ie not
weekly anymore) which band had to change their name
temporarily as a result of the gulf war, they had to
remove a part of their name and on record sleeve
simply taped over the part of the name they had to
remove? go on guess.
on the subject of the quiz thing our winners
will be recieving prizes soon (honest) look forward to
next rounds of said quiz for the sam neil and tibet
rounds coming up.
ok so apparently is joint sinister/ michael
grant birthday events soon. so ummmm pub anyone?
pre-popleague-picnic/pubnic? it's your call michael.
on the subject of name dropping, ,ken chus
always doing it isn't he? and no matter how much he
goes on neil robertson still hasn't said anything
about treasure hunt clue answers. recently amykins
thought i was the boy g, sorry for the confusion. i
think idleberry phoned the boy g once in edinburgh,
but i may have been mistaken because i was talking to
pigtails, but all that was forgotten by a few months
later in the tap in glasgow and then we don't even say
anything about sweetie..... if anyone wants to help
i've got a month to save up and buy a white capri with
a black felt roof for gav partick. maybe ally or lucy
will see him before i do and talk him out of his
demands, i think sarahluv wants the capri too, that's
why he's so insistant.
red bulls and rip-offs
thomas x.
ps: why did i write some of that in the style of chu?
ps2: is quite a good console but x-box is better
aparently

hi again!
so, i wasn't really going to post again, till i had done some
experiments (quickly dashes out and purchases home-made
wurlitzer from the whizz-kid down the block, assumes vincent price
hairstyle and... no, wait, that's not a hairstyle, that's just a badly
insulated plugpoint! damn cheap home-made stuff!), but lizz actually
used (and i quote... that is to say, i cut and paste, because i'd
NEVER get it right) "peripateticism", and surely one can't let that sort of thing
go. boy, if we ever had a giant intergalactic sinister scrabble-evening (or have we? i
forget...)
well, i definitely wouldn't play, but i could bring some brackets, i seem to have a lot
lying around. (it's just my latent parentheticism, i think)
MY SECRET SHAME (pty ltd &c)
ALSO, robin mentioned SPIDERS! now, could i tell you about spiders! no,
seriously spiders THIS big, or actually, counting the legs (well, there'd be 8
wouldn't there? har-har) they'd be about THIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIS big. and
very very hairy (scary!). well, i'm not ashamed of the spiders exactly (like crabs,
they happen to the best of us. er... uhm they do right?), but finding this one on the
front-door yesterday, i'm afraid i made rather a mess of things... it, to be exact. i
know i know, NORMALLY i'd grab the nearest tupperware container and humanely
remove it, but when it just conveniently crawls into the of the hinge while fetching
said container, a swift slam of the door becomes mighty tempting (did i mention the
size of this mo...edipus?)... well, i'm not proud of what i did, and was in fact
brooding on it a little driving to work 10 minutes later, WHEN ANOTHER ONE
STARTED CRAWLING OVER MY WINDSCREEN, ON THE INSIDE, ABOUT
20cm AWAY FROM MY HEAD! i tell you, thank goodness for red traffic-lights or
the pile-up would have been something. i'm not really one for trashy horror of the
"revenge of the arachnids"-type, or classy adaptations of the classics like "beowulf
for baboon-spiders", but you know when you've got a bit of a guilty conscience...
well, from my new-found position in the passenger-seat i tried to shoo it out the
open window, only to have it drop on the driver's seat! just as everyone behind
me's starting to hoot and everything to get my stalled car moving. the rest of the
drive to work, with a now vanished but presumably pissed-off spider
THIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIS size in my car was NOT FUNNY!
anyway, so no-one eensy-weensy spider me for a while please!
on a more CONTENTS-related tangent: (and all the boys and girls say
YAAAAYYYY!)
i'm sure this has been discussed at length here before, but still.
how does everyone feel about the tracklistings on the albums? i mean the sequence
of the songs. i've thought about it before, and the storytelling review reminded me
again. for example, it took me a while to realize why IYFS seemed a better album to
me than TBWTAS when the latter actually has more of my favourite songs on it. so
i started playing around with it a little, and i found that, eg. it worked for a lot better
if you went straight from "sleep the clock around" into "ease your feet off", then i
found that i really liked "is it wicked not to care?" more than i had thought, also that
i liked symour stein a lot more when a summer wasting hasn't made me impatient for
dirty dream #2, same with chick factor and simple things and so on.
or, on IYFS, that "stars of track & field" doesn't really work for me as an album
opener, that "iyfs" itself works better somewhere else &c.
and basically, although storytelling hasn't got so many great songs on than some of
the others, basically it always seems a much more coherent album to me than
anything since perhaps tigermilk, simply because of the way it's composed. (of
course, the dialogue bits help with that too).
anyway, i could carry on with this for a while, and like i said, i would have liked to
experiment a little more before sending this, but i was just wondering what thoughts
other people had on this?
one day i would also like to write something on how i think it's strange that b&s
have so many great album-closers, but so few really good openers, but i'll save that
for some content in another post (consider this fair warning!)
well, sorry if this is long and boring. have fun everybody!
love
JohaN

Well, we had a very civilised picnic on Saturday (although the subject
of Mark C's cock did keep rearing its ugly head. As it were.) I also
managed to drag my hungover corse out on Sunday night for a quick
catch-up with the glorious sons (and daughters) of York, which was all
good and gossipy. I'm a bit late for proper Reporting Back though, so
I'll get straight on to the ephemera instead.
We're nearly five! I'm not quite ready for my pensive birthday post
yet, so I thought we could check out some of the people with whom we
share our birthday instead:
Mother Teresa (yes! it's true!)
Man Ray
Theodore Dreiser
Lyndon B Johnson
Confucius (explains a lot)
and
Peewee Herman (explains even more)
I can hardly wait to break out my red knickers from their special velvet
storage box and hotfoot it up to Primrose Hill next Sunday for a 5TH
BIRTHDAY PICNIC, or a mi-decennie as the French might say (but
unfortunately don't).
Bugger, I have run out of things to say. This is what comes of whoring
your opinions round the internet - you can't even rustle up a
substantial chunk of wit and charm for the ones who started it all off
in the first place, my first love, my secret vice, my imaginary friend,
my teacher, my crush... oops, the pensive version nearly broke in
there. Where was I?
Oh yes.
Luv Archel xxx
PS. Linda pointed out the presence of 'fox in the snow' in Woolf's
Orlando, of course, but did she notice that the book also contains the
phrase 'extremely smutty'? COINCIDENCE? I don't think so.
PPS. Welcome Carl! I believe there is some shady sinisterine called Ian
resident in Brum, but you don't want to get involved with his particular
brand of sin and depravity, trust me. He kept a NUN in his CLOSET you
know.

Hello Sinisterines!
rockin' Rrrobyn said: <<i saw mum last night>>
I saw mum last week. And dad, too. They're alright,
you know. Dad's been doing a bit of wallpapering, and
mum's runner beans are looking fantastic...
Seriously, I think múm are okay, but I'm a bit annoyed
that I went off and bought the album after hearing
their last single on the radio. It's a case of the
single being better than the whole of the rest of the
album, I think, and I should have payed more attention
to the girl in the record shop who told me exactly the
same when I bought it. It's not bad, just a bit
wallpapery. And as we know, wallpaper is for dads.
++
In the birthday spirit, I've been looking at a few ink
polaroids. Here's the oldest one I could find:
Here's Ailsa and Kevan and Arantxa and me, in chalet
number 650. Everyone's looking a little suprised and
confused because they've never met before. Well, in
Ailsa's case the expression's more drunk and confused,
and she's holding a glass of what I think was called
String Bean Gin. There are other people here too, on
the sofabed in the background, but they've been a bit
smudged by beer drops or tear drops, I don't know
which. A lot happened that night before the polaroid
had a chance to dry.
++
Lucy and Mark were talking about SPIDERS! Well, my job
involves looking at patent applications and
occasionally someone
comes across one thatÂ’s funny and emails it to
everyone. The other day
a
girl who works in the baths, showers and toilets
department found a mini
ladder
with a suction pad which sticks to the inside of a
bath so that spiders
can
climb out in safety. Aww! ItÂ’s so sweet!
HereÂ’s an artist's impression of the spider ladder at
work in a dramatic spider rescue!

Do you ever think of funny things to say just when
itÂ’s too late? This
is
what happened to me today, when I met Paul outside the
tea room;
P: Do you know what I think that stain on the floor
is?
Me: Tea?
P: No
Me: Erm...(I hate it when people make you guess stuff
when they know
you
wonÂ’t be able to.) Err... Tea?
P: Rat urine!
Me: Eh?
P: Yeah, we had rats in our house once and it looked
just like that.
Me: But how do they possibly get up here, when weÂ’re
on the second
floor? I
mean they canÂ’t catch the lift, can they? They wonÂ’t
be able to reach
the
buttons.
P: (enigmatically) Maybe they know someone on the
inside!
Paul goes off to make a cup of tea and IÂ’m left
standing in the
corridor.
Me: Yeah, maybe they have FRIENDS IN HIGH PLACES! HA
HA HA! Oh! HeÂ’s
gone!
Hello boss! Er, yes, funny things these... these,
erm... bye then!
Grrr!!!
Do you see? FRIENDS IN HIGH PLACES! Ha ha!
Er, bye

Oh heck, what did I want to say? It'll come back, probably just after my
credit's run out.
Anyway, the following came to mind when, after purchasing my very own copy
of Laura Cantrell's beautiful beautiful album 'Not the Tremblin' Kind' (ooh!
Country Nouvelle!) for a criminal #3.99 in the nasty little Impulse shop
at Luton airport, I was listening to it on a poxy EasyJet flight (my own row
of seats at the back) to Paris a couple of weeks ago, gasping at the lurid
orange glow reflected in the windows off the 'plane's cutprice wings and
eyes watering from the recycled air. I think it's kind of relevant given
the degree of peripateticism indulged in by spinisters. Shifty folk given
to continent-hopping we certainly are.
I think air travel encourages emotional openness. Maybe it's simply the
stress of airports etc coupled with tiredness and uncomfortable surroundings
(explaining the cushioned smugness of Business Classers),but possibly the
act of rising at inhuman velocities through changing atmospheric pressures
and conditions results in a slightly altered chemical balance in the body.
Clouds seen from above are quite as trite as when planted firmly on solid
ground, even or particularly when bathed in smoggy sunset, but there is an
ineffable difference in the experience. It broadens the mind, they say.
Love,
Liz :x

hey sinister,
this is my first ever post! after a few weeks of playing with
dull bricks in the nursery, i am now officially a big boy. so i'm gonna try
and tell you lovely people a little about me (hopefully i'll not break any
of the many sinister rules..)
i'm carl. i attend birmingham university where i read books, write bloody
awful poetry and eat loadsa uncooked pasta whilst arguing about the merits
of grated cheese vs ungrated cheese (any thoughts anyone?)with my
unenlightened housemate. oh and, green tomato ketchup. i like that as well.
i have been wanting to speak with more b & s people for a while. i saw
sinister, but never bothered until now---always being content to wander over
the net hoping to find something else instead. what i was looking for,
exactly, i'm not sure. but i didnt find it. isnt that always the case
though?---the only things worth finding are the things that you dont know
exist. but this is hardly the place to get all philosophical on yer ass. so
i wont.
currently got a summer job working in a goddam boring office. entering
goddam boring codes. into a goddam boring machine. for a goddam boring boss.
but yer know, i cant complain. the sun is shining, i have books, poetry,
soothing music and my pasta.
going round europe in a few weeks as well, woooo-hooo! going inter-railing.
where shall i go? vienna? berlin? rome? i'm so excited that my feet are
aching from stamping too much. plus--b & s play athens in sept. so might
just have to wander down there and see what the band are like in the
aftermath of cute 'bel's departure.
so, is there many sinisterites----is that the word? or is it sinisterees?
sinisters?----can someone please clear this up for me? its a matter of no
importance---therefore i need to know. anyway are there many people on here
who live in birmingham UK. would be cool if there are---let me know.
so thats about it. a very tentative first post possibly. but there you go. i
am more accustomed to the nursery and bricks after all. built a wondrous
castle last week. with a moat.

Hey there
I saw some bands on Tuesday, thought I'd tell you all about them. They were
all very good, but all different, a really good combination of bands.
The first was Kaito, who I've never heard before but were really good, kind
of Punk/indie, sounded a bit like Bow wow wow. I thought they must have been
a New York band (because of the style) but I spoke to the lead singer
afterwards and I think she was English.
The Datsuns were next, they've been in NME quite a lot recently. They were
really energetic and loud and they rocked. The lead singer was a bit tasty
too :). I liked their bass lines, always an important factor in a good song
for me.
Finally there was the Pattern, who were pretty good but they were really
pissed so they were a bit all over the place. The drummer was excellent. The
lead singer kept sucking his thumb and reminded me a bit of Craig Nicholls.
The rapport on stage within the band was really good as well which made it
loads of fun to watch.
Has anyone else seen any of these? Particularly Kaito, who were my favourite
band of the night.
