I'm sure I speak for all of us when I say that it is a great relief to see
that Yul Brynner has finally unhanded Ooon's computer. That was a very nice
message, Oooon, and I'm certainly proud to be one of your regrets. Chris, I
hope your record shop included sites of historical interest, where there
used to be record shops before they closed down. The legendary Rebel Records
springs to mind. Named after the dog from "Champion the Wonder Horse", its
greatest hour was an instore signing session from list flavours of the
moment, Mudhoney. They were very nice chaps, so I can't say anything bad
about them, even if they are a bit crap. I do like shouting though. I'm
lucky enough to own a "raw mixes" CD of The Stooges. It sounds like shit.
Yeh! Keith, how can you say you don't dig shouting when you are the world's
leading authority (well, second leading authority) on 70s W!H!O! Mister
Daltrey's plaintive WAIL is one of the shoutiest shouts of all time.

I'm intrigued. I tried to get "White Horses" from my sister-in-law, Lizzie
Dripping, painstakingly negotiating the handing over of her entire record
collection. In time added on for injuries she suddenly decided she didn't
want to give Jackie away, leaving me with a cupboardful of bollocks,
including "Russians" by Sting. Doh!
Fluffy wote:
Ah, but Princess Honey Mitchell is away on sabbatical somewhere in
Bitter Orange tea land, dreaming of flower fairies and being fed
grapes...
Paul must be due to come back soon. How about we organise a surprise party?
Here's the plan: Between now and Paul's return, no one sends in any messages
at all, thus giving the impression of all the lights being turned out. Each
of us chooses a suitable hiding place. I'll jump behind the settee with a
handful of beautiful young ladies, Tall Git could put a lampshade on his
head and stand stock still, and Trousers could sit on the mantelpiece
pretending to be a wise old owl figurinette from the seventeenth century.
Had owls been invented by then? Whatever. Fluffy could take the tummy out of
the telly and climb inside and pretend that they're showing "Heavenly
Creatures". Tim could be Kate Winslett. Anyway, when HoneyPaul and
HoneyLinda walk in after a long and tiring journey, we could all simulate
jumping out and shouting "SURPRISE!" by suddenly bombarding the list with
endless reams of pointless drivel. Like this. All those in favour, say
"aye".
Susannah, I know most of the boys on this list are turned on by waiflike
wispy willowy women, but some of us really go for big fat tunky pig women,
so tuck in and chow down, and put that watercress where it belongs - right
up your
bum!

this year. Mark my words...
