all this talk of exams... you poor poor souls. think then sometimes of us equally poor souls on the other side of the equation who have to mark the bloody things :-( the duchess is currently ensconsed in her study doing another stint, marking those bloody SAT papers for English. And all the students have answered on Midsummer Nights Dream, her most hated Shakespeare ever. a tough life. and me? well three days solid marking bloody GCSE work and still not finished. it's brain-smacking, i can tell you. so come on kids, spare us a thought when you sit down to that paper, and think: do i really NEED to do this much work? ;-) um, of course feeling more up-beat on account of it's now another half term and that the details of the new B&S record are seeping out. i do so hope they will keep the name 'the truth about youth' cos it rocks. in a prissy way, of course. hope the summer dates coincide with our school hols and that they deign to play somewhere further south and west than bloody Bristol. you listening, you bloody popstar people, you? Exeter would be good, of course... haven't heard the mogwai single cos i don't listen to the radio. the remixes ep and lp are great though. other current listenings recommended by the duke: the boards of canada lp on Warp is the sound of falling in love underwater. Chaos A D lp on rephlex is tom jenkinson demo tracks from yers ago and is hilarious and magical acid squelches ahoy. more to your liking would be the new velocette single, with it's sterelob meets the etienne grrove, although the slower than slumber cover of paris angels' sublime perfume is the killer. Whistler's rare american shoes also smoulders. and jonathan richman. uncovered again, always sounding so great it hurts. i played orange juice's ostrich churchyard the other morning before school. it fair made me bristle. the duchess thinks that the trembling blue stars is bland shite, but i still have a fondness. i wonder if bob will ever make good his dream of becoming a postman on orkney. or was it shetland? i wittered too much. have a cool picnic wherever you are. i shall take my bicycle, ride to the top of Great Haldon and grin like a madman. i shall be thinking of you. respect, the duke dude. i'm not brave, i'm not special, i'm not any of those things. ------------------------------- Tangents On-Line http://www.virtual-pc.com/tangent/ PO Box 102, Exeter, EX2 4YL, UK tangent@lineone.net ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .
