Now this is interesting...

No, it doesn't suck, and I won't tell him a thing. When did you sleep on his floor. Was I there? Who the hell are you? Who's been sleeping on my floor that I don't know about? I'm frightened and I want my mum.
Finally, did anyone else laugh at Capt. Bob Stanley talking about Marianne Faithful on 'Brit Girls' on Saturday.
It was baroque wasn't it? Places to go: Cafe Pop (Oldham St) for 'convivial' surroundings, chocalate fudge cake from the Polish bakery and cheese on toast that rules like a bad mutha. Goldmine Records (Shambles Square) for Northern Soul goodies and Piccadilly Records for Laura's radiant smile, Martin's saucy good looks, Andrew's infectious enthusiasm and Daryl's abuse about football. Actually forget the last one - he's an evil red disgrace and he smells. Of poo. Kingbee Records in Chorlton for second-hand bargains. Errr....Marks and Spencer's where you can make bad jokes about turning tables round. Night and Day is a nice place to drink. So is Corbiere's, when it's quiet, but I can never remember what road it's on. Behind the Royal Exchange. Maine Road for a beautiful religious experience. Don't go to Old Trafford unless you want to make Munich jokes and imitate the cockney accents of the punters. Actually they'll all be at home in Surbiton watching it on TV. Bastards.

Just a quick suggestion but "Why don't You" have some heese on toast from Afflecks palace (next to vinyl exchnage almost) x-tra cheesy is best with tomato ketchup and finish off with a cup of hot chocolate with marshmallowy bits mmmmmm tasty :) dan For once this has some notable B&S content, but I've gotta be quick.
