Dear Everybody, More gig stuff, sorry I'm so slow. I had a wonderful time at Ispwich and I wanted to tell you all about it. As we walked up from the station, I tried to pick out the people who were going to the gig. I guessed nearly everybody, because who wouldn't want to go see belle and Sebastian, and I was right some of the time. My (non-sinister) friend and I had seats high up in the circle. We played musical chairs in order to sit as close to the front as possible without actually stealing someone else's seat. And then the band came on and they were wonderful, amazing, fantastic! Brilliant opening song, first time I'd heard it and it was terrific. The only other thing I have to say is mmmmm, doesn't Stuart have a lovely body. Hello to all the lovely people who were at the train station waiting for the train to Norwich. I didn't actually speak to anyone but all seemed very nice! Hannah mentioned how attractive female B&S fans are, and I wanted to say that if the bunch at Ispwich are anything to go by, they're all adorable, male and female. Since I didn't manage to meet any Sinister people in England, I think you should all come to Ireland for Witnness at the beginning of August.
