g'morning. on the topic of belle and sebastian and parents: when I played them for her, my mother said, "this is nice, but I like songs I already know the words to." my father, upon hearing iyfs, said, "what is *this*?" and proceeded to imitate stuart m by mumbling and whining unintelligibly and out of tune. at the time, this very much irritated my teenage self and I believe I flounced out of the room. on the topic of cheap scottish stuff, I remember there being a chain of consumer electronics stores called mcduff's or maybe macduff's. it seems to me they've been out of business a long time, but I remember ads featuring a scary kilt-wearing man telling how low the prices were. yeah. and to whomever caused me to receive a message from miss crush this morning, well, there's been too much talk of missed opportunities on this list already. emma __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
