* bunnies! and what freak weather conditions has today brought you? earthquakes? snow? today here is sunny and blossomy. and people at verk have brought back toffee from edin-burgh (like chris de burgh, only... oh dear), called 'highland toffee'. you have to smash it with a hammer. it's v nice, and not too sticky. i feel v v sick now though, but the smashing is so much fun. ooh, ooh, but i've found a *particularly* good cure for over-sweetness - it's *apple* ribena!! (what do 'bena purists feel about the new flavours? jenowl?) - particulary right when taken with choco-late. even better when hungover on train to work - apple 'bena and chocolate nutri-grain bar! i have a sneaking suspicion that nutri grain bars may be, in some way, eville. anyhoo. i think geri's new look is rubbish. i liked her in her sequinned swimming cossie days. maybe because i always wanted to be a synchronised swimmer, i dunno. *

Here's my question for sinister. What is the best Monty Python sketch ever?

my monty p nominations are mostly from 'and the holy grail' (a bit like 'and you will know us by the trail of the' - no?) - is a fil-m allowed? bestest bits - the black knight sketch, the brave sir robin song, 'fetchez la vache', and when king arthur says 'a duck', and everyone gasps. and the perky ex-leper bit in life of brian, (but that may be because i have a crush on young michael palin - sshh). funny, was watching life of b. last sun night, and at the crucifixion bit at the end, i wanted to cry. sometimes it's nice feeling tired and emotional, 'cause it makes you look after yourself better in a duvet on the sofa kinda way. was also *gutted*, really furrowy brow-y about the rector business, as had just assumed sm would win by a landslide, silly me. and felt properly sick about not seeing *the* gig. oh, but the report was fab - david, i imagined you like jimmy thingy off superman, in a beige mac, with a hat with a big 'PRESS' card in it.

There were 3 spoilt papers

somehow, i find this touching. i like that people can be relied upon to spoil their papers, and i like that it's called 'spoiling'. *

Berkely or Berkely?

it's Beserkly! as in Jonathan Richman - the Beserkly Years. do i always talk about jr? next time i will talk about the beta band, and beards in rock. * love and kisses sweeties, and a going-home party bag xsoph * _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com. +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
