Oh dear. I was ill yesterday and had to go home. All because I went to a takeaway called Ali Babas 40 Amazing Dishes the night before. People said I was as green as a green plate of mushy peas and I felt like one too. I should have known better, but Im always a sucker for a stupid name. Im always the one who drinks the guest ale called The Reverends Ring, even though it tastes like wellies. So I went home, had some soup, went to bed, had some soup, watched Richard and Judy and had some soup. On Richard and Judy they have a phone-in quiz where you have to describe an object without mentioning its name: [A picture of a tree flashes onto the screen] Caller: Erm, it grows in the garden. Richard and Judy: Grass! Caller: No. Its big and its got a trunk. Judy: An elephant! Poor Judy. She still shakes a lot too. When they left their show on ITV I thought it might be because Judy was shaking so much her hands were creating a strobe lighting effect. When the new show began I half expected a health warning beforehand: Warning, This Program Contains A Trembling Woman. All in all a wasted day. And I felt guilty feeling sorry for myself. On the bus home I offered my seat to an old man who was gripping one of the poles for dear life. He said Oh no thank you young man. Its my legs, you see. If I sit down Ill never get up again. Of course I consider myself lucky compared to some. I felt pretty pathetic after that. Bloody Ali Baba. He can stuff his 39 other Amazing Dishes Its good to see a debate on IWUTU. In my opinion its the best single theyve done so far. Im not sure why but somehow, despite the style being so different, the title song feels like something off If Youre Feeling Sinister. I think it must be the lyrics; sad, honest and funny all at once. Its good to revisit a bit of smut from Archel too. I remember reading that post about orgies before I met her and *being very scared*. But shes never that smutty in real life and rather sweet. Maybe Im just not trying hard enough, eh Archel? I'm off to have some soup... Robinx PS: To all the Bobs on our mixtape team: Im still trying to work out the rules but when I have Ill let you know and we can devise a plan of action. _________________________________________________________________ MSN Photos is the easiest way to share and print your photos: http://photos.msn.com/support/worldwide.aspx +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
