Erm well it's been a while...where to start? I'm not sure what to type about Liz as I'm feeling a bit lacking in eloquence this morning, but I was moved to be at the funeral along with so many of you, and thought it was a fitting follow on gathering in her memory. I'll say no more. I've thought of her and Rob during my travels. Another sinister birthday has ticked by, I was sorry to not be around for celebrations but hope to be seeing a few folk at the barbican on Sunday? I just got back from a month in the mainly high altitude desert that is Ladakh, Northern India and more specifically the western end of the Tibetan plain. I'll save finer points of socio-political discussion with big Stu for another time, but I learned lots (trekking, staying with families in remote villages, visited plenty of gompas, long chats with a Rinpoche) and erm better let folk know... I got married! Aside from both sets of parents being informed by an email ending (I paste:) "...p.s. Got married yesterday!! no joke - see attached photo and zoom in on rings :)" There are amusing photos of Sarah & I in traditional dress getting hitched by a Lama. One of the strangest phone calls on my return this weekend was with a fellow sinisterine as we swapped news, but I better let him share his... Of course the our £2 each wedding rings of 'pure silver' with "om mani padme hum" in Tibetan sold to us by a market trader turn out to be a bit closer to brass I think, but the £1.50 engagement ring does appear to live up to its sterling billing. The Mrs (or Ms?) will be along on Sunday for her 2nd B&S experience, so we'll some of you then :) love jim P.S. thanks for all your efforts honey! +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
