Sinister: A wee story...
A person I know at school told me the other day that he was out shopping and went into a record store, there, sitting under B for Belle and Sebastian, was believe it or not, a single copy of Tigermilk, facing outwards for the world to see. Priced at 13.99 (uk pounds) It seemed to good to be true, unfortunately right as he approached it from a small distance, a woman rushed up exclaimed "yeessss!" and went and paid for it. Needless to say he wasn't very happy, and complained to her that he was just about to buy it, but she cackled and scurried off to wherever she came from. The end. (And it's not a happy ending) Grrr. +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister@majordomo.net".

I'm sure this has been said before, but doesn't this remind everyone of a certain Roald Dahl story?
