Christopher, when I got my photo taken with motorcycle ace Barry Sheene, I didn't say anything, my mate's mum did all the talking. If I remember correctly, Christopher, you always go and see Robin Williamson with your mum and dad, so if I were you, I'd get your mum to do the talking. But I'd try that "tousle tousle tousle" business first. I heard the Jarvis Cocker Looper remix. It's right up there with the Gentle Waves. More interestingly, I heard "The Indie Pop List" by Momus, which is quite funny. I strained my ears to hear mentions of you lot, but the only one I caught was The 13 o' Clock, which rings a bell from somewhere in the distant past. It is an insanely catchy song. I got the Norma Waterson album too. It's very sad, makes you cry for Freddie Mercury. The droning sound on "River Man" turns out to be a hurdy gurdy. It's the Sister Disco Purchase of the Week. Thailand news: The man-woman boxer was on telly for at least fifteen minutes. His/Her opponent kissed him /her before the bouting commenced, so he/she got really angry and hammered the fucker. I quite fancy him/her, and I bet I'm not the only one. Pop star authors: I think the problem is this - the general public perceives pop stars as silly billies and writers as clever dicks, so if one tries to do the other's job, they become a silly dick or a clever billy, and it's like a face with a wonky nose. Sister Disco PS: Nice poem, George. +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister@majordomo.net".
