Hey up sinister, (and Mr Pettinger, I'm not nicking your moniker for my email address, I've had it for years, it's just I've left work and become unempl*yed. Hence change of email address) How are you all? I wonder if I'm going to be posting more now that I have things like job-hunting to avoid? I expect so - I've only been job-hunting for 5 hours and already the kitchen is spotless (apart from the floor - something else to do later, bonus!). Carsmile Steve's post and wonderful Madeleine's post sort of got together in my mind and set me off ruminating on Sinister ancient and modern. But it wasn't very coherent, so I won't bore you with it. Perhaps I shouldn't bore you with this post at all, as it's really only a practice one to get me back into the swing. If several old friends want to greet my return with a few virtual slaps on the back, that might encourage me to post again :-) XFM, eh? Other London listees will be able to confirm how crap it is, which is a bit ironic considering one particlar post of mine a few years back. I've got it on in the background as I type, and by gosh it's poor. Not quite as poor as the website, where I notice they're making a big thing of the fact you can buy bargain Lighthouse Family CDs! Well, woo. Before I go, props to Kirsten for being so lovely and Mr Gillanders for being so lucky :-) Alla prossima, Mark xxx p.s. now that I'm out of work, I have more time for personal emails. This is a hint. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
