thank you for putting us back on a straight path, we were wandering abit
weren't we.
i think it's bloody important that we have people remind us occasionally
about why we're on this list. none of us could really care for much else
than tigermilk be re-issued, belle and sebastian to continue writing and
releasing fragile but special songs, and this whole thing of love.

why do we so easily forget this?
what is it about e-mails that can twist your intentions and create a
flame?
whatever, i don't need the answers.
i just need reminding of the way i feel when i listen to 'sinister' or a
bad recording of the radio sessions, or anything else they do.

as the duke always says 'keep the faith', well, given the chance i think
we all will.

 - feeling somewhat fragile because the hot water has now broken, along
with the computer, cd player and one of our windows. everything seems to
fall to bits when you're suspended 200 feet high over west london, but
at least we've still got Belle and Sebastian. :)
