Hey there sinisterinies:) How YOU doin'? (said in Joey Tribiani from 'Friends' manner, natch) It's da Kinsta all da way from Perth, Western Australia. Hope everyone is doing nicely. I'm nearing the end of my exams and so far soalright:) Wish me luck for last one! Hard to study though cos am frequently daydreaming about going to London and Europe in December! I'm off to do my medical elective there: 4 weeks at Guy's Hospital (doing paediatrics) and 2 weeks at Whipps Cross hospital (doing A&E) which is VERY exciting. Are any of the listees med students at either of those hospitals??? Or been there for any reason at all? Tell me what to expect! I know Guy's is old and Whipps Cross is extremely busy but anything else? And as for those listees who might be studying there, give me the full skinny! And maybe could we meet, so I don't feel so lost when I'm there:) Also listees in London and Scotland, what are the cool gigs happening around Dec 2001 to the end of feb 2002? Any sinisterinie get-togethers? Cos that'd be really ace. Last time I was in London, missed out on a Sinister shindig at the Poetry Caf with Hefner, which would have been awesome! So tell me what cool bands, gigs, events are happening in that time? Am gonna miss out on Alfie which will be a bummer (going backpacking with a friend from Venice to London in dec). Any other interesting gigs? Also what are the coolest record shops, where I can score the rarest, most obscure and hard-to-find CD's (sadly don't own a vinyl player)? I was introduced to the delights of Rough Trade and the Music and Video Exchanges which are so amazing. But any other shops? I'll be living with rellies (that's relatives in Aussie slang) in St John's Wood. Any cool record shops around there? I need your help Sinisterinies, to score cool music! What are other worthy record shops to visit? Okay well hope to hear from some of you soon and take care peeps!
