Hello Bunnies, how are you all then? Really? Arab what? With a metal ring? Well if he's going to talk about such things you'll just have to ignore him. Now I want NO MORE talk of veiny vinces and captain mainwarings, OK? Honestly, you're just like your father. Now go and dig the garden, you smell of Oxo, and your jumpers scare the horse. So you were in london fluffy? You should have said so earlier.Instead of enduring some shite west end show, you could have gone with me to watch the bungee jumpers in battersea shit themselves. It's my new favourite thing. There's nothing more amusing than watching 'lads' dangling inverted over the thames, and watching their smug, pepsi max drinking faces as they realise that the women on the ground whom they were trying to impress are now kissing the crane operators instead. Ha! You sporty bastards! Ha! You're not laughing at my trousers anymore are you? Yes, I'm living in the 'glamorous' capital, which contrary to opinion, *is* in fact open 24 hours, unlike the country town I've escaped, which ceases to exist after 6pm each night, (and at lunchtime on market days.) I've got a lovely flatmate, and a lovely flat, and whenever I want, I can put on a suit, go down to the river bank, and pretend to be Nick Drake. Yay! And tomorrow, me and the others are doing our stars in their eyes thang, and 'jammin' and 'funkin' etc. I'll let you all know how we get on. Erm, Mick McMick: wintery songs....I'd say seeing other people- the ending with the piano going 'plink plinky plonk plonky, plonk plon plonk plon plonk' sounds like snow falling. The whole first half of sinister's a wintery sort of LP, I think. Even if it was recorded in the summer. Go on! admit it. I'm right. All B&S songs are autumnal/wintery, 'cause the sun rarely shines on the hipster... I miss the snow. It makes everything look so romantic, it excuses you for looking at the world through red eyes. Incidentally, I dunno how exciting this proper version of Slow Graffffitti is. It's beautiful of course, but it sounds just like the evening session version, no added bloopy noises or moogoid wibbles or disco beats or anything. I'm starting to worry about this band you know. Just recently they seem to have bought a 'best of Phil Spector' record in woolies and just gone 'great! we'll have that!' prrrbb. It's all good stuff obviously, it's just that my boat's not floating as high as it once did. All I ask is for a dash of Electronic Renaisance, some tinny acoustics for once, some crappy beats...stuart? please? right, see you all soon. Maybe I'll have something to say then... :-) byebye seb ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---------------------------------- ''...and I came upstairs, and you were still up, and l said 'the man next door's got a horse in his flat!' And you said 'you're drunk', and I said I hope so, 'cause the man next door's got a horse in his flat, and I don't like it much'. And then I fell asleep, and I dreamt of palaces, with walls of green glass...''
