Happy 1999, Cack Handed Ones, Being the sad staying-in-type person that I am, I can report that our loved ones got two tracks into John Peel's Festive 50. TWATTYB!U!S itself slid in easily at No. 3, and Slap Your Cock Around peaked (too soon) at No. 26. News from the sales: chain record stores are currently good places to collect B&S supposed influences: local Our Price knocking out all 3 Nick Drake albums, Love's Alone Again Or & a Velvet Underground album for only £6.99 each. Round the corner John "Minges" was giving away Dylan's Blonde On Blonde for £4 (!) Nothing to do with music I know, but all you Sid James fans (Struan, I hope your mum is still letting you read these) can also pick up a boxed set of all 20 Carry On filums for the bargain price of £99.99 in HMV. I have to concur with Señor Miller about the Gram Parsons GP/Grievous Angel 2 on 1 CD: anyone seeing this should buy it and open their ears to the joys of being a rhinestoned shitkicker.
