Howya!! Tis a long Tuesday aint it? Im going on holiday again, isnt that great. But, again, Im at a loss for somewhere to stay. This time its in Amsterdam. No no I dont want your floors, I just need a little advice on fine establishment so's that I dont end up in that big red part. After a fine weekend in london, imagine my amazement when I agree to go to amsterdam and find out that its the same weekend when two festivals are on there. fate is a bugger at times, but we like it really. Now to the music, do check out www.thebeatmuseum.demon.co.uk. This is a wee shop in glasgow that used to brighten up that mangy bit of great western road before the Western bar (seven day a week Karaoke folks!) by playing funky tunes all day - until the poshers across the road complained. Geez (as in jeez, not fannies) was it interrupting their enjoyment of listening to the lorries and buses trundle by?..hm. Anyway the man gave me an ace james Brown comp for 8 pounds yesterday cos it was kinda fuzzy. What a darlin'. To the man whose name means c***, do not worry this term was highly acceptable in the 14th century as a term for the fanny. In 1811 however it was a nasty name for a nasty thing. Sorry. Did you also know that the phrase Sweet Fanny adams derives from Sailors. In 1812, fanny adams was murdered, chopped up and thrown into the river. No they never used to eat her, but they did describe their rations of tinned mutton to be similar to Fanny adams. Therefore it became a term denoting nothing at all. Thus Sweet F.A. I may have told you all this before but i dont really care. cheers me dears, Claire**

morning all,
steady mike (or steady mike stand jones as someone else said, which made me giggle) quoth:
October. October, October, October. Oct meaning 'eight', Ober meaning 'add another two'. Ah, isn't this is what it's all about ?
and then this made me laugh and then sigh and think "oh, i miss the london sinister massissive"
... anyhow ...
Adrian, "not always what he was cracked up to be" Evans spake forth:
i think Katrina should start a list-collection so that we can buy out one of the less well off footy clubs in Scotland. Rather than the somewhat dead Poetry Parrot sketch, we could take it in turns, week in week out, to manage the team. Bagsy Peter Withe up front.
which reminded me that i decided afterall to barrack (is that an australian word?) for celtic ... must go online and find a team picture so i can figuree out which players i fancy ... thanks to everyone for their reasons why i should support thistle ... sorry for your wasted words ...
managed to delete who wrote this, but youknowwhoyouare:
p.s. Apparantly one B+S (possibly the boy Geddes) will be D.Jing at the Star And Garter pub in Manchester sometime this month. This is not an unsubstantiated rumour. I spoke to one of the other D>J's who plays there who knows whats going on. I hope anyway or have just made a twat out of myself.
it's actually bad belle richard colburn ... i have the date written down here somewhere ... hang on ... here we go ... it's actually to celebrate the club "smile" 's birthday on november 6th, which you may remember was the afterparty celebration venue @ the manchester gigs way back in 1997 ... how time flies.
so there you go.
list mummy said lots including most if not all of the following:
On to business. The first thing is that that nice man Stuart David has finally got a publisher for his book "Nalda", extracts of which some of you might have read on his Looper site at http://www.treehouse.clara.net but which he didn't ever finish putting up.
and i remembered someone was wary that stuart had only got a publishing deal because of b&s? didn't stuart write this book previous to his b&s involvement? and didn't he also have a short story published in a collection of short stories before 'tigermilk' was released? not meaning to sound like sour grapes, but i think he's a writer as well as a musician and deserves to have both available in the public view irrespective of his success with the other. hmm, i don't think that quite made sense ... sorry.
which i thought was an ace idea and needed reiterating.
must away
katrina
