Dear All, Long time no speak, so... I am sad. Very sad... I dont know why. But I do as well. I listened to fyhcywlap last night and it made me sad. It always makes me sad. It shouldn't. Mm makes me happy to listen to, yet the picture of them makes me sad to look at. Stuarts voice never fails to make me smile, but somehow on that album it only ever makes me frown. Its a strange thing, fyhcywlap. I think it is because it reminds me of Glasgow. And no other B&S do. I love Glasgow. London sucks. Do you know, on arrival in Glasgow a tramp hailed a cap for me, opened the door and wished me an enjoyable stay. I didnt even buy the big issue from him. I lied, and told him I already had one. Not true. The only experience I have ever had with a homeless person (much more PC) in London involved her chasing me down the Tottenham Court Road with a dog. True story. A club bouncer rescued me. Which was nice. So, I am sad, and I want an explanation. I had one of the best days of my life on Sunday. I went to the British Museum, then record shopping, then for drinks, then down to the Victoria Embankment (thats on the north bank of the river, for non London hipsters) and admired the truly beautiful view. (Why is it London is only ever beautiful at night?). All of this in the company of a very lovely man. A true sweetheart Maybe. I dont know him that well, but on first impressions he gets 10 out of 10. Loads of good gigs coming up, which makes London great again Perhaps. But its nothing on Glasgow. I would swap the thousands of ok bars and venues for the two FANTASTIC bars and couple of good venues Glasgow has. But I have no money. And I am a wet, so I cant do it on my own. I need a friend. Maybe this boy will be great and marry me and we can live there happy ever after I hear you cry. (Well, maybe some of you will whisper). No he is moving to Japan in 9 months, so there isnt really any point in pursuing him at all. And, I think the point is the surroundings shouldnt make you happy. You should be happy in yourself, and the settings will compliment this. I need to do some exercise, get really pissed and take some ecstasy. This is the answer And as the weekend has just arrived, my end-of-working-weeks blues are about to be destroyed . Until next Thursday night. Are Thursday nights happy in Glasgow?? Answers on a postcard. Go! Go out and celebrate last Mondays release of the new Spiritualised! Hurrah!!
