Hi Sinister, And a happy new year to all. I hope the first few days of your 2002 have been good. Mine have. Been grate! I flew over the pennines and Glasgow (could see Parkhead, Hampden and Ibrox all at the same time!!), and Loch Lomond and Mull and GREENLAND!! all caked in snow, all the while listening to Tigermilk. Eleven hours later I touched down in Los Angeles (LOS ANGELES !!) and after a couple more hours negotiating the lovely US immigration and customs officials was met by the truly Awesome Rachel Fruitloop and her friend Vicky. At first it was all pleasantries but a little awkwardness in finally meeting face to face with someone you've opened a bit of your heart up to via email and a couple of phone calls. But now, only what, 5 days later, I can't imagine never knowing her. But in 4 days I have to go home :( I'll leave Rachel to tell you more. She's a much better writer than me, as you all know. I just wanted to do my reporting back duty and thank everyone who wished me well. I don't think it could've turned out much better, and it's all down to Sinister, which is YOU!! Just in case it wasn't clear (put it down to his gallant modesty) Ken won the London bowling with that score of 157. So unless you did better Mr Gillanders, Chu's our champion, as if he wasn't already! take care Ben xxx _________________________________________________________________ MSN Photos is the easiest way to share and print your photos: http://photos.msn.com/support/worldwide.aspx +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
