SNAKES ALIVE! Who remembers those little diamond cake decorations? The jelly ish ones with sugar on them? They were great. Cake toppings are great. I would dream of a day when I could afford a whole tubful. In fact, I still do. I’ve had a busy weeks Finging. Actually, it’s more than a week, but it began with the picnic. What a lovely picnic too. I co coordinated my clothes, and surprised Glam Pam by sporting tights. This is a strange thing to be surprised about. I support tights though. Then I was followed home by some people who stayed a while and listened to Wire with me. Juicy Lucy tried to steal a scooter. Liz Daplyn refused to leave, she loved it so. She knows the score about astral dangers. The day after Ally Cooke appeared from a coach. He went directly to the pub. We followed. Tim Hopkins led us around, pretending he knew where he was. Later that week I wandered round Aldgate with Ally; we saw some joggers. They’d been running for ages. We saw a mosaic of Chris Leonard. We’ll show you the photos one day. Then we went to the pub. Forever. I can’t quite remember what happened over the next few days. The Foxgloves played under a building on Wednesday, they were ace, even if Martin Robinson couldn’t be arsed to stand up. Friday I think I was in a pub again. With the Fisting Alder Sisters. Oh, you sure missed out. Saturday night Lucy barbecued her flatmates, and we all had a feast. Later on in the evening Nicky D got the Quips and Quotes Book out and all we had a bit of a laugh at women drivers. Then he tried to put his foot behind his head. Fun. Sunday I went to Greenwich to scavenge food and climb under hedges. Oh and Pam cooked some stuff too, in case the stuff I found under the hedge wasn’t filling enough. Sez made a marv batch of Yorkshire puddings. Lupe cut hair beautifully. Then I went home. That was the week’s activities. Today though, is boring. Later on I will go to a Euston to meet Starry and Honey and Linda and then to a pub to meet Elena and Paul and other people, then to see a band. The Manganese Files, or something. Last night I did something to my hair involving plaits and stuff, today I look like a cocker spaniel with a perm. Bad. I think I’ll go and catch up with all the email I’ve not read in the last week. lixi ________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
