Oooh ooh! I know this one! "Rocket Queen" by Guns 'n' Roses. Now stand up all those who knew this but were ashamed to say. And you, Hopkins, no use trying to hide it. You know how when you're listening to your favourite band, you'll occasionally have little Moments when whatever song you're listening to makes you feel totally at peace with the world, so happy you think you're going to burst? Obviously B&S do this to me quite a lot, but it caught me unawares the other day, cos it was Seymour Stein that did it. I've always really rated this song (more than anyone else I've discussed it with, it seems) but it's the first non-Struan song to have had this effect since god knows when. Rhoda has that effect every time I listen to it. Please release it, Stuart, it's so lovely... Was the Richard Stilgoe programme the one where they did something a bit like Battleships? I thought it was fantastic. "About a Boy", I can exclusively reveal, must be a good book cos I worked on it! I had to research popular culture in the time period covered by the book, what was top of the hit parade, which films were out, what trainers were people wearing, that kind of thing. It was quite fun, although having read the book the only thing I can say for sure is my work is the reference to Mr Blobby. Oh well. But Mr Hornby is a thoroughly delightful man, as well as being a role model for slapheads everywhere. And (don't forget) Belle and Sebastian figure in the High Fidelity film soundtrack, though I haven't a clue which song. And in the plot - Barry slags them off while they're playing in the shop. Christal B - you're not getting through to Erica cos you've got the address wrong. Why not go and check it? I want to have a baby. Oh yes - more big hugs for Alyssa Marie - hope it goes okay, honey!
