Bonjour, Sorry if I offended to people of Sheffield in my last post. I'm sure many of you are in fact lovely. But then again, if you have a monstrous hangover and some git like me calls you at 9:30 in the morning to ask if you've had the Sheff. Gazette/Journal delivered, you might turn ugly. People often sound really excited when they answer the phone, as if they're expecting a call from the secret lover. I've been making a hobby of predicting the moment the crushing disappointment hits them. "Oh...", they say. I think the boxed set is a truly fab idea, because I'm a relatively new fan of a band called B&S and I need some more songs to sate my cravings, and I've only got the albums. None of the shops in my personal hell (known as Worksop) stock...well singles of any description actually, except chart ones. Which are shit. Unless they're by the Manics. Box sets are shameless cash ins, but most things are, it's just a matter of convenience for me. Be nice and easy to get one nice big box from HMV, rather than scrabbling through piles of (unsorted) records in some dingy independent store. I hope nobody's going to think the less of me now. By the way, I should point out that I really love indie records stores, especially dingy ones. HMV is too clean for my liking, but I arrive in Sheffield on a Saturday at 9:50, and work starts at 10, so scrabbling around looking for singles is not an option. I've just realised, I really don't know what I'm talking about. I agree with Mr. Gilmer about beauty. I don't know any ugly people. At first I thought a few in my 6th form were, shall we say, aesthetically challenged, but now I know them (or her rather) I know she's a really lovely person. If you don't know what I'm talking about there's a quote bit beneath these words:
Look, there are very, and I mean very few ugly people in the world. I really believe that and not just spouting twee boy rubbish. Some people are more glamorous than others, and that's something different.
I've been behind with my sinisters. Been away you see, I'm reading through my 13 digests now, and I'm on the second and I've wrote this much in response to it. So I'll stop here.
