Sinister: Mat Musings...

[Ben Rainbird]

Hi again, thanks to all the lovely who wrote and said you liked my 
introduction, it was nice! I'll write to all those people at some future 
date, probably tomorrow.

Today I am pondering whether to go out and betray my beloved Liverpool 
and buy a Manchester City top or not.

The sky is a lovely blue today, a lovely Australian blue. Today is the 
sixth anniversary of my epic voyage to the ski slopes of Switzerland.

I met Paul Hester (ex of Crowded House) the night after he completed his 
run of sheds (non Australians are now confused) and he said "Ben 
(thankfully cos that's my name), I am so fucking pissed I can't feel my 
legs!" which has stayed with me as a profound statement on a par with 
"I'll win an Oscar no shit by the year 2000" (Wendy James, Transvision 
Vamp).

I can play a glockenspiel so I count as a musician, and I have a hidden 
talent for stand up comedy. And my friend once beat up a guy in an Elmo 
suit which broke my heart.

I'm drifting now, off to my happy place where the Sun hits the Sky and I 
have never heard the hidden track of 1977 by Ash of the bloke vomiting. 
It's a field of green where I run. And then, after 2 hours of football, 
I nick the ball off the toe of the Rangers trialist, round the keeper 
and break a 30-30 tie. Magic.

And we all drink Irn Bru and laugh.

Are there any Scottish people out there?

BT
