Sorry for being a miserable young trout but I don't get Harry Hill at 
all. Appologies if I've offended anyone.
	Anyway, I'll keep this short as I've got the flu and I want to 
go home and lie down and sniff forlornly. Reid beat me too it by 
exclaiming:

> Slow Graffiti is still one of my all-time favorites.  The horns sound
> fantastic, and I love the way Stuart tweaked the vocal melody.  
> One thing
> I'd like to point out to see if anyone's noticed is that just after the
> line "take whatever's coming to you, boy", it sounds like Stevie 
> lets out
> these two extra "boy"'s.  Someone tell me I'm not crazy, please.

Yes, I'm backing you up on this one, except I don't think it's two 
extra 'boy's but instead a strange, admittedly vocal, noise. I heard 
it on my Beat Patrol tape but I assumed it was (a) a fault in the 
tape or more likely (b) a problem in the mix that would be sorted 
out when it was released. Seems it's just another weird quirk 
though. I'll ask Struan next time I bump into him. Or maybe not.
	Oh, and I mailed the 120 mins thing (despite being in the 
Uk and not even having a proper TV) and today I got this back:

did play it.

	I think we may have rubbed them up the wrong way... One 
more notch on the, um, thing with notches in then. Oooh, 
something just arrived. I wonder what it is?

Humph, humph and humph again! There is nothing wrong with 
thinking you're Jarvis youngsonnyjim. I've made a career of it these 
past few years. Speaking of which , I'm trying to get a band 
together sort of. There's me and a couple of people who could be / 
are in it though they don't know that yet. We're going to be called 
'Zazie dans le metro'. If you've recognised the reference, well done, 
have a pepperidge farms Chessmen cookie, whatever that is. 
	<paranoia> And speaking of gestalt - believe me, it was 
mentioned briefly a while back - has anyone noticed that Tag and 
Keith always have the same views? Has anyone seen them in the 
same place? I smell a conspiracy <paranoia>
