More stuff: 1 Ahhh.. the old 'licking railings' conundrum raises its head once more. I always thought it was something to do with 'Irn Bru' which our scottish brethren persist in insisting is made from 'girders'... If you're going to _drink_ bits of metal, what harm can a quick lick do? 2 On University Challenge last night, Jeremy Paxman told us that Saint Lucy is always depicted carrying a plate of eyeballs. Can her earthly representative, Tag, confirm this? 3 Guy Chadwick - what a tosser pt4: "It's going to be a long hot summer/gonna stay in gonna be a bummer" 4 I think a B&Smobile is a fantastic idea... they could drive around like those crazy kids in the new Levis ads. Incidentally, I've discovered that the song from that ad is by The Lilys... is the album worth buying, anyone? 5 Following on from Andy's recommendation of the Iain Banks radio play, did you know that BBC Scotland are screening an adaptation of Alan Warner's "Morvern Callar" this year? If anybody hasn't already read this book, I urge them to buy it now. It's like Catcher in the Rye crossed with, um, an Arab Strap song. Steer clear of the follow-up, "These Demented Lands", however. Because it's crap. 6 I'm grateful to everybody for all the Northern Soul info. How educational! We ought to get some kind of Arts Council grant... 7 S Wells wrote: "This ever-so-slappable crowd of shit-eating indie-schmindie sheep ". Whaddya say we all pop round to Kings Reach Tower and do some slapping of our own, eh gang? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------ The Poetry Society Website http://www.poetrysoc.com ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .
