Jenowl, could I have the spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, sausage and spam without the spam please? Also, have you tried Ribena and Guinness? It's what men drink in Nigeria, according to my Nigerian ex-boyfriend. It improves the flavour of the Guinness just enough for me to stomach it, anyway, so it can be a useful resort when the Ayingerbrau is off. Desmond Torpey asked

...whats peoples opinion on terris?

I got very drunk at the Blur B-sides gig in London last year (or was it the year before? How time flies...) and got chatted up by one of Terris, the one who looks like a bulldog, and Richard Parfitt from the 60ft Dolls. I like to call him Rick Parfitt in homage to Status Quo. Anyway, they asked if I fancied going back to their hotel to 'continue drinking' and I considered it for all of... oh, half a second before deciding to get the bus home instead. That's my Terris story. Mikey talked about conmen, which amused me because I thought I was the only person being regularly accosted by a conman. Well, conboy to be exact, as he looks about twelve, is fairly portly and has extremely rosy cheeks and puppy dog eyes. He's also a bit grubby. Anyway, he came up to me at the bus stop by Finsbury Park station last autumn and explained he'd lost his money and couldn't get home to his mum. I, being of a more generous nature than stingeboy Mikey, forked out a whole £1.80 for his tube ticket. Then, in January, the same young scamp approached me again with exactly the same story. "You're lying", I said. "No I'm not," he replied. "Yes you are, you told me the same story a couple of months ago". He just wandered off and asked somebody else. I know he's young and naive, but rush hour is not the time to be employing con techniques as commuters are the likeliest people to be caught twice, aren't they? Anyway, Nick, Lixi, anybody else who uses Finsbury Park station, look out for grubby rosy cheek conboy! Strange Fruit this weekend should be ace, not least because the Mighty Obscura are playing. I also think it will be the first time all my chalet-rinas will meet each other. Top of the agenda will doubtless be who's bringing what bouze. What else could it be? I'm still not sure what shoes I should wear though... Juicy Lucy ps. Chris, you're not a cunt __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
