Sinister: Nope, can't think of one...

[Stuart Gardiner]

Well the list's certainly busy today. I'll probably get told off if I
complain about people sending 10 posts a day instead of one long one, or
sending lists of bands they like without saying why, so I won't bother.

On sartorial matters:

Am I alone in finding puffa jacket wearers (uhoh, sweeping generalisation
coming up...) some of the most dull, narrowminded,
all-my-friends-are-wearing-one-so-I'd-better-wear-one-too people around?
(see, told you so...). Sorry if this offends anyone. Actually no, I hope
it does offend someone because that would mean that there was actually an
open-minded puffa-wearer out there somewhere and the world would be a
better place. I mean, there must be some nice people who wear the things,
I just don't think I've ever met any. The war on unoriginality starts
here.

Personally, I'm a fleece man.


Sorry if I'm sounding a bit arsey tonight, I'm just not in a very happy
mood. You see my sister's been down to visit for a couple of days (which
is a good thing), but she's been telling me what the situation is like
staying with my parents at the moment (which is a bad thing). And I'm
about to head up there for 4 weeks for the Christmas break. You would not
believe how stressful it is putting up with family life at the moment.

Speaking of which, is anything still happening about a Glasgow meetup
round New Year sometime? I'll probably be in Scotland at the time, and
it'll give me a couple more days away from the parents...
