hey sinistereenies, its been so long, so many things have happened, you won't remember me, but i remember you, twas not so long ago you broke my heart in two... but don't worry i'm not about to say anything topical. so since we last spoke many months ago i've found the lever on the chairs in the computer room that makes them go up and down, so you can fool people that a pooter is free because they can't see you around the other side of the monitor because you are too low down. oh the hillarity. i've also embarked upon a mission to try every cheese and funny looking sausage at the deli counter in safeways. i'm currently eating a stripy cheese made of five different kinds of cheese stuck together. its a riot of flavour in every mouthful. someone mentioned the strokes. only joking, i wouldn't really go there. except to say that we did some flyers for our last highly successful "most diverse indie night in manchester" (the next one being tomorrow, tues at the phoenix £3 if anyone's interested) featuring the ramones and one of our friends insisted on confusing them with the strokes repeatedly. now i don't know about you, but i can't see that the two look terribly alike..? someone did however say "ballboy" the other day, and suggested that only scottish people would like them. wrong! i like them and i'm not the slightest bit scottish, well a tiny bit, distantly somewhere in my family history, but not so you'd notice. in my absense it seems that no-one has been continuing the irn-bru vs redbull battle. hmm... looks like we lost then, but http://clubs.yahoo.com/clubs/worldofirnbru is still up there if anyone has anything to say on the matter. oh, i know its a long time ago now, but some people wrote about being on the beach in scarborough after the b+s gig there in june. i was there too!! yey, can i admit though, that i wasn't really sure what i thought about the members of the band that i met. perhaps it was a post gig thing, or perhaps it was just because i fell in the sea and got wet (not a good thing to at 1am when you're wearing denim) but... oh nevermind, i'm sounding silly now. however, i did find out the best thing about having a posh phone that you can record stuff on in a sort of dictaphone stylee. i now have loads of 30 second snippets of live b+s that i can carry in my pocket. yum. must go, i won't leave it so long next time, love and megabeans, fiona. *guess who watched a retrospective of kylie videos on itv2 last night. http://clubindigo.net +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
