I know where the Poetry Parrot went. Brad had it last. It doesn't bear thinking about. I couldn't give two hoots of a baa lamb's tail whether BEEPSTER do B&S merchandise or not. To be quite frank, the t-shirts were rather poor quality, and make me look like I've got big jugs. But I am looking forward to the new generation of BEEPSTER recording artistes. Who knows? Maybe they'll discover someone to eclipse even Snow Patrol! I've been reading The Economist, all about the future, when we'll all be downloading albums from the Internet and playing them on special machines implanted up our bottoms, connected to specially trained octopus headphones with suction pad speaker systems. Perhaps we'll be able to download merchandise too, such as iron-on transfers and saliva-propelled tattoos. It'll be great. The only negative aspect I can see is the closing down of every single record shop in the world. I took this as a hint to go out and buy as many albums as possible while I still can. I started out with Jimi Hendrix Live at the Fillmore East. I can't say I'm overly thrilled about it, apart from our old friend Chip Taylor's magnificent "Wild Thing, You Make Everything Groovy". But I'm very thrilled by "Good Times" by Chic. I urge you all to rush out and buy it before all the record shops in the world close down and you haven't got anything to do on Saturday mornings anymore. Thank you FunkySeb for your kind words of kindness that you so kindly wrote concerning Pedro Juan in Trousercuts. I'm afraid I can't answer all your questions, because it's a secret. But I can assure you that there are NO mistakes in Trousercuts, the greatest fanzine of all time. Rumour has it that Manda Rin is so jealous, she's put all that weight back on again.
