Hello and Joyeux Paques! (happy new year for those of you that don't speak Spanish) Well it's been a while, but I've been urged by sooo many people (2) to come out from within my hibernatory (?) burrow of lurkerdoom and sniff the sinister air once again. Mole mole mole. And it smells like: A perfume not like any perfume known before. Not a scent that made things smell better, not some sachet, some toiletry. It was something completely new, capable of creating a whole world, a magical, rich world, and in an instant you forgot all the loathsomeness around you and felt so rich, so at ease, so free, so fine... It was in fact the Fragrant World of Princess Honey, Christiaan and chums! (Courtesy of the book I'm reading by Patrick Suskind-Perfume, £0.00, nearest library). But I digress. Well I don't actually have a point. Just wanted to say hello again and let's some of us get together for ales sometime soon, yes? As to B&S. Well, just listened to IYFS while supping strong mead, and boy was it as delicious a vintage as ever. (IYFS that is. The mead was circa 1243-pretty stale). I was surprised that IsablelLark had got some grief. I was enjoying her musings, and as she says, just press delete-oh you haven't already, cheers! But c'mon, no need to slag people here. Well I'm pished but quite cheerful after all the Festive Bullshit (TM). And so I'll depart to slay dragons, fortified by nothing other than stale mead, porter, la courage netherlandias et un peu de la joie de sinistere. Happy hangovers to all, Love Iain xxxx shoulda stuck to Red Bull...but for that tale of derring-don't, speak to Ken... _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com. +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
