Sinister: It's all Katy Cooper's fault!
Dear Sinister, It's all Katy Cooper's fault! She organised a sinister tape tree, and we both joined, and got each others tape and thought 'wow!'. So we started emailing each other, and then there were letters, and parcels full of toys. And then Bill Bailey was playing in Sheffield, so we HAD to meet. It was like impossible things #2, but with chips and the internet, and jiffy bags full of sequins... After the first day... well, that was it. A little black fox and a yellow fox called Karma (although he doesn't necessarily believe in karma, even though he's proof of it) wandered the streets of Sheffield. And the black fox decided not to leave. So, after a quiet night in the pub with some friends, Jules and Mike braved the snow and went home. And Mike whispered in that nervous way of his 'I've been looking at rings... engagement rings. Is that Okay?' I guess you've worked out the ending by now. So blame Katy, even though she didn't know it was her fault (but does now) And Honey, you can be bridesmaid, you'd look great in taffeta! I guess there's a twee Scottish band we should thank too...

Hullo again, Thanks for all the lovely emails regarding mine and Jules' announcement of engagement, it was all lovely and warm and fuzzy. The idea of 1500 strangers turning up to our wedding quite appeals actually, so you're all invited. It'll confuse the parents... excellent :o) Not that they won't be confused enough as it is, however. Or mine will be anyway, since their nice little middle-class sensibilities will make them assume the wedding will be in a church or a registry office, when in fact it will be in a forest. So you must all set aside a plenty of time in summer 2003 then, there will be the wedding then a picnic (aka a bunch of people getting pissed in a park and probably arrested). And finally, just how *do* you tell your parents you've got engaged to a girl? Especially if I suspect they don't wholly approve? (NB I can't tell them to piss off because they're buying me a house. Who are you calling materialistic? :o) See you in summer 2003... unless I know you personally, in which case I might see you next week or something. Love, Mike :o) +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
