In the spirit of the extraordinary crisis of communication that just flared up between JJ and MileEndGirl, I'd like to throw my own confused hat into the ring:

Did anyone else notice in the Independent on Sunday a couple of weeks > ago that the cookery section suggested that your cooking might well be improved by listening to Belle and Sebastian.. does this mean we can expect a band appearence on Ready Steady Cook?

I too am lost with this B&S/cookery connection. A while ago a Food and Drink piece in one of the Scottish papers cocked a snook at "Belle and Sebastian-loving food pornographers". I wondered if this meant I was missing a trick by failing to combine food, masturbation and my favourite band in some ingenious way. Does anyone have any ideas how it could be done? If you hurry I might be able to relate my experiences to Yorkshire TV.

Don't worry about sounding snippy, Anastasia. I wrote that somewhat tendencious(sp?)-sounding message to inspire discussion. Snippy discussion is better than none at all!

Snippy? I have no idea what snippy is but it sounds fantastic. Is it an American thing or has it just passed me by? Like twin towns, which I'd never heard of until a few years ago. Snippy. Snippy. I like it so much.
