Aaah, sweet sweet Tigermilking. If only every Friday night could be spent in a crowded room in Highbury, then "I will be happier" (contrived). A few interesting B&S related points to follow, but first a ramble. I have sent to the list before, but never with any consequence. I do, however, avidly read every post. I work in the desperate, soulless, ruinous world of advertising (although my Company is gorgeous and lovely - I have to say that or the thought police come for me). I am therefore entirely lacking in moral fibre. I think my soul will be saved, for rather than devising devious ways to make consumers buy products they neither need nor want, I move flipcharts around meeting rooms. Dull, yes; glamorous, no. It does, however, give me plenty of time to waste your good selves' drive space across the globe. OK, five B&S comments and I'm off. 1) I went to see Citizen Kane last week (with the mighty Spoon), and was delighted to see that it positively bulges with Belle & Sebastian references. Kane's political rival's name is Geddes! At the end, Kane updates his hit list of wanks! In the picnic scene, the band can be clearly heard playing a crude but pleasant version of "Photo Jenny"! 2) Me and my friends came 3rd in the Tigermilking popquiz. (Did more than 3 teams enter?). We won some sherbet, which we threw about in an orgiastic cocaine style. Boy, I bet you wish you'd been there. 3) Hello to everyone I spoke to on the nightbus home on. I can't remember names (very, very drunk), but I think some are going to Trash tonight. Anyone else? I'll look out for badges. 4) Who the HELL was dancing to "Exit Music" on Friday? I couldn't decide whether to be impressed or appalled. Great to get down to MBV again, though (not since Bowlie...), even though I think only me and Spoon were on the dancefloor at the time. Now I come to think of it, it was probably only Spoon. 5) OK, that's your lot Sorry, I was wrong about the interest (he wrote) J. D.
