Sinister: Plums

[Alder, Lucy]

Couldn't think of anything to put in the subject box, but you know how
sometimes you start thinking about a word so much it detaches itself from
it's meaning and then just the sound of the word makes you laugh because
it's a bit funny?  I had that with plums yesterday.

So, first of all, howdy to everybody I saw at the picnic (can only remember
Erica and Geoff but please don't be offended if I can't remember your name,
as I'm generally appalling at that sort of thing, but I do have detailed
pictures in my memory of your faces and what type of spectacles you were
wearing).  Sorry I couldn't stay long but, as it was my sister who suggested
we go for a picnic on Primrose Hill, I couldn't forgo Quality Time with her
in order to sit around boozing, could I?  Besides, she did me a massive
favour by holding my hand and helping me through shyness.  You probably
guessed from the fact that she was wearing DKNY trainers that she is not
much of a B&S fan.  I did play her SOT&F but she said "The singer sounds
like Kermit's little brother Robin".  Ouch.  Maybe I should have played
something that sounds a bit jollier like String Bean Jean, but the damage is
done now.  Or maybe the damage was done when she bought Wham's greatest
hits.

In answer to Mr Watson's query, I have never worked at a certain sea-front
club in Blackpool.  I do go to Blackers regularly when I can find the time
in my busy schedule, but I generally play clubs in seedy backstreets.  

USELESS TRIVIA CORNER
Nice to see Soho's Hippy Chick got a mention - I still have a video of them
performing it on Top of the Pops somewhere - they wore bright orange
tent-dresses with bright blue neck-ties.  Their drummer went on to join The
Bluetones.  I kid you not.

RADIO
It is my impression that there are a few ex-student radio types out there.
It is also my impression that there is sod-all decent radio in London.
Anyone fancy starting Sinister FM?  

That's all folks

Juicy Lucy
