In years to come, I will say that Sinister was responsible for beginning my decline. Never in my entire life, even during those lazy hazy years of student depravity, had I spent twelve whole hours on the booze. Until Saturday, that is... On Sunday, walking dazedly about the streets of London, snippets of the night before gradually returned to me. Can it be true that I spent a whole £1.50 on a yellow fluffy rabbit and then shoved it in the face of anybody who crossed my path? Did I really have a feel of Spanners' (firm, in case you're interested) arse? And where on earth did that big purple bruise on my own fair behind come from? If anybody has the answer to this last question, please let me know - it's troubling me slightly, not least when I sit down. I wish that every single Sinisterine could have been there to pogo along to Teenage Kicks with us (somebody counted 57 people at the picnic, which means about 5% of us were there if my maths to be believed). I had such a lovely time and met so many lovely people that I now have a superfluity of warm and fuzzy feelings which rise to the surface whenever I think about the weekend. Not much else to say, except a hy-uge thanks to all who organised. Oh yeah, and I missed University Challenge again last night due to stupid schedulers who put it on at the same time as Eastenders and my video conking out on me. Ho hum. And one other thing. I accidentally switched on Xfm this morning. The first words I heard were "Coming up in the next few minutes we've got Stereophonics and Red Hot Chilli Peppers". That made me laugh.
