Onto five things in a sec but first: (A). I'm VERY dissapointed at how conservative all these musical taste lists seem to be. No, really. The Smiths, Tindersticks, Radiohead and the Jesus & Mary Chain seem to be in all of the things. (B). Brier: 'Sweet F.A.' means 'Sweet Fuck All' i.e it means 'Nothing'

Right: Now for 5 things to make a young (19) boy sigh: 1. Lying in bed and listening to B&S 2. Having all your friends at Uni / Night shift and no-one to talk to all day. Lots of people like solitude but I get a grawing hollow sick feeling. 3. Sitting in a shit nightclub and watching all your friends pair up except you. 4. Wondering what I'm doing starting a shit course in a horrible university full of dumb fucking EE A-level grade Business Studies studients in a mind- numbingly expensive city. 5. E-mailing some questions for your fanzine to a favorite musician only to have them replied in a brief, unpleasant and obscene way.

Sorry, but there they are. I've no time for good humor when i'm in a mood like this.

I don't know why I bother writing to this list. I may as well send my messages to Emile Zola or Alexander the Great for all the response I get. That could be the 6th thing. It's not very theraputic and nobody reads this. If they do they take a hell of a lot more than they give.

Anyone fancy a pint?
