Hello It's gone all cold, and I'm getting psyched up for the journey to Glasgow tonight. Taking Aggi, my Greek friend to Scotland, she's never been and I promised I'd take her (she did ask if we could go to the Shetlands - I said no. By the way, Dina, one day, I'll take you to the Butt of Lewis). The fact that (even a slimmed down version of) the Sebs are playing is an added bonus. Saw The Strap last night. Started slow, got great, Aidan's got a beard, can never see anything at the Roadhouse, unless you stand on a barstool and I'm scared of heights. We laughed at the stoned wankers beside us who were chicken-dancing to 'Lust for Life' at the end, and nearly spoiled my evening by being 'an unruly mob', and singing 'Don't you want me?' in the quiet bits. Apparently B&S got the idea for playing at the Town Hall, cos Stuart and Stevie were bored one night and drove to Manchester, went past the Town Hall at 3 a.m. and said 'what a brilliant building, we've got to play there'. Any group that chooses venues on the basis of architecture is OK by me. On Mon, 1 Dec 1997 22:51:53 +0000, Chris wrote:
Or maybe just the most laughable, something like Bros or Megadeth!!
'Islands in the stream' by Kenny and Dolly. But I will defend that to the death if asked. 'Netty's Girl' by the Beastie Boys is laughable as in 'funny'. My friend Anna gave me a record called 'Jokkmokk Rock' made by some Swedish R n'B artist about the most Northerly town I've ever been to and it's fucking atrocious (but absolutely loveable, naturally). Any Swedish correspondants know that one? She also gave me 'Foolish Beat' by Debbie Gibson, I think that's the one that crops up in 'Welcome to the Dollhouse'. Strange girl, but I love her.
Or name your top Christmas tune, seem as though we're coming up to the season of goodwill...
'Frosty the snowman' of course. Unless you can't 'I don't love anyone' (not even Christmas). Someone else will say 'Cry at Christmas' by Denim, so I won't. Andrew Dean wrote:
anyway, back to the marmite... when i was over visiting my ex-pat friend in america i asked a couple of his friends if there was anything that i could take him and they both said marmite. it's good stuff, wholesome vegetarian food, bit too much salt to be actively good for you but nice and tangy. good on toast too. good on cheese on toast as well. nice and black with it. um, this is making me hungry. and i only have vegemite at home too (similar thing but australian and not as good, you can tell just by looking at the shape of the pot...). wah!
