Dearest lovely-things, Belle looked gorgeous on The Tube last night. I have no qualms in saying I want to *be* Isobel Campbell. I have to say I was a little distracted by Struans Arms Of Sex - and dissapointed at very few Gratiuitous Cooke shots (I'm beginning to think he's more of a beautiful boy than ol' mad dog murdouch himself). There is a part near the beginning, when he nearly cracks up laughing singing "ri-de in the field, ri-de-(hehe) in the field" which is fantastic. It's dissapointing that they only played one song, but I'm glad it was 'lonliness of a middel distance runner'. A lady formally of this parish send me a tape of it earlier this year, saying "after you hear it you won't know how you lived without it". How right she was. I'm afraid I don't have the means to make video copies, but I could make good quality tape copies of the one track, should anyone not have it/desire it - because honestly, it's a really, really good song, and if anyone else could feel like I did when I heard it, well - it can only be a Good Thing. Mail me privvy, like. You can't trust video players to function while you are sleeping. The belles safely recorded and doubled checked, I set the video to record 'Zero De Conduite' (the film upon 'If.....' was based) and tucked myself into bed. It didn't work. Our central heating is broken at the moment too, so I am sitting here with an electric heater stuffed up my vest. Legwarmers are suddenely a very attractive fashion statement. Last night reminded me of something my brother said after spending his first week in halls of residence - "I was wearing ALL of my clothes, and I was still cold". I think he stole that one off Ben Elton. Students eh?

I DO NOT (ooh, I almost went a bit DICKIE there), however, wear any semblance of a headscarf

ooh, I do sometimes. Though not in the 'pirate' style, like the girl from S Club 7. I always want to say "ooh ar!" when discussing pirates, but always end up sounding like a country bumpkin instead. No fair, I say, and there's nothing wrong with looking like a granny. I stole lots of my grandma's clothes when I last went up to Yorkshire - twinsets with pearl buttons! knee length tweed skirts! wonders! It's so hard to find nice *new* clothes if you don't like looking like a chocolate-box army commandor. Pastel utility chic? has the world gone mad? naturally. Erica x Oh dad, she's driving me mad. http://www.chickpages.com/rants/golighty/index.html +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister@majordomo.net".
