Sinister: Re: You're a bold coquette and you dress outlandishly...

[Pete Ramsdale]

As a bit of a reply, Sam (for what it counts):

I use the word moniker a lot. It's definitely a word. Or at least it is in my 
house. Think it came from afrikaans, or something. Afrikaans for what, I'm not 
quite sure, but there you go. Probably "name". Come to think of it, it's quite a 
good word. It's the kind of word I'd use when sidling up to my boss with another 
holiday form that I know he's not going to sign off. "Erm, could you stick yer 
moniker on that for us, please...." Never bloody works. Oh well. "Moniker", 
however, is definitely not the best word in the world, though. That honour, in 
my opinion, belongs to the word "moist", which, quite frankly, gives me the 
raging horn.

Meanwhile, back at the ranch.......

Ah yes. Saint Etienne. Well worth the price of your average ticket+booking fee, 
imho. I must however admit, before I go any further, that Sarah Cracknell does 
occupy a very special place in my heart, being as she is one of the most 
gorgeous women I have ever had the incredible good fortune to clap eyes on. And 
she can sing, too. Bonus. Having got that little admission out of the way, I 
will swiftly go on to say that I saw them at V98, and although they got a right 
slating by the music press (arseholes that they are), I loved it. She stared 
right at me you know. Honest. And smiled. Mind you that was probably because all 
the rest of the crowd were grooving in a chic 70's-cheese stylee, whilst I was 
jumping up and down like a mad bastard. I do, however prefer to think that she 
spotted me in the crowd and got moist. See? Told you. Top word...... :-)

Finally getting to the topic of B&S, could we puleeeeze have an end to these 
rumours of various release dates for Tigermilk and get one of the Jeepster 
marketing/merchandising/whatever people (sorry for possibly dropping you in it, 
here, Katherine and David) to confirm the actual one agreed? The whole thing is 
driving me nuts, and my psychiatrist recommends that unless someone kindly 
furnishes me with an actual release date, and I come to terms with the long-term 
hurt that was inflicted on me when my parents took me to see Little and Large 
and the Nolan Sisters in pantomime as a kid, that I will never be normal. 
Bugger.

Well, that's about it for now. Except, that is, in the vain hope that Sarah 
Cracknell is a big B&S fan and has joined this list under some strange 
pseudonym, to say to her that I'm not doing anything particularly much next 
tuesday if she wants to pop down to Colchester. Dribble, indeed.......

lol p xx.

 Life is full of regrets, and I've had a few, as Frank Sinatra
 once sang, before hiccuping loudly and falling over sideways.
