Hello. A picnic happened on Saturday. Jolly nice it was too since various B&S-loving pagan weather gods got together to make it a bluddy glorious day for an all-out indie assault on Primrose Hill. Lots of people came, much wine was drunk, cakes and scones and biscuits (courtesy of Liz and SGS) were greedily consumed. Picnic mummy Mark did a grand job of keeping us all under control when some inflatable Muji ball antics threatened to get out of hand and interfere with the neighbouring picnic - ROCK AND/OR ROLL! Traditional sporting events ensued. Those of us who eschew the way of the football were entertained by some hot badminton action (courtesy of Archel) and the violent death of several shuttlecocks. Cassarole & Daplyn's controlled high-power rallying contrasted favourably against my flail-wildly-in-the-vague-direction-of-any-sudden-movement tactic. Strange Fruit happened that evening. It was GRATE although like Ken's, my memories are pretty vague apart from a hazy recollection of dancing to Roxy Music as though my life depended on it. Yay! Endless waiting for night buses, sleep, hangover then BOWLING!! In marked contrast to the last event, I wasn't too crap. Must bowl under the influence of ibuprofen more often. MAD PROPS to Mark for mummying and DJing, Liz for bed, toast and painkillers and Ken for bowling-mummying. [][][][][][] Ken mentioned the potty-mouth hit parade on the back of IYFS. Maybe Mick and the Gaffer-in-Chief could have a competition to show off their cussing chops right here on the list and let the whole of Sinister decide who is the sweariest of all? Hmm?
