Sinister: cheese - the one for me!

[fiona]

can't remember if i've used that subject line before, but i know 
you'll forgive me.

  today i have read a big pile of posts and am prepared to comment, 
although don't expect me to remember who any of them were written by, 
so i'm apologising in advance for the lack of acknowledgments.

  oooh! the violent femmes! yum! i have yet to meet anyone in britain 
who will confess to liking them. the very mention takes me back to a 
school exchange to a small town in virginia, where blister in the sun 
blasted from the car stereo, parked on a high school sports field, as 
we got drunk on nasty american beer and threw the empty cans at the 
wall. oooh, how dangerous we were!!
  and add it up is fantastic in a filthy sort of way (one of the best 
ways to be fantastic i always think)

 what else, oh yes, my childhood computer reminiscences are of an old 
bbc b computer which my parents bought when i was about three, 
thinking that it would help me get ahead in my schooling. and indeed 
it seemed that the only games it was possible to buy for said machine 
were 'educational' although still rather addictive. however, i still 
never learnt my times tables after all its best efforts, and look at 
me now - a maths student!!! (well half of one anyway)

  brandt (look i remembered) said
>It's interesting not being smitten with anyone.  I may have to try
>this for a while.
   isn't it just, my new weeks resolution a while ago was to remain 
resolutely single until i found someone fabulous enough to merit the 
honour of going out with me, but the novelty is starting to wear off, 
and i'm contemplating going back to being a filthy slapper again.
  this feels like a good time to remind you all to cast your list 
crush votes in this direction
     mbbx9ff2 at mail1.mcc.ac.uk
that address again   mbbx9ff2 at mail1.mcc.ac.uk

 gratuitous i know, but who ever said there was anything wrong with 
shameless self promotion? now if i don't have any messages from miss 
crush in my inbox next time i look there are going to be some 
sinistereenies with very sore bottoms. threat or promise? - you 
decide.


  all the talk of kate rusby made me think of my younger days when my 
parents used to drag me and my brother to folk festivals and we would 
eat tea and cake at mrs rusby's kitchen, the makeshift cafe run by 
kate's mum and dad for the duration of i think it was sidmouth 
festival. that sort of thing seems to make you immune to the music, 
i think i still suffer from the teenage aversion to parental 
approval. and also my mum, when she was in her youth, went out with 
martin carthy (dad of eliza) and so somehow i can't listen to any of 
that family's tunes either. 


  and finally, whoever complimented me on my spelling, you can't 
understand how grate that was to read, spelling (and i'm being 
serious now) has always been something i take pride in. i know some 
people can't help being unable to spell, but it's sooooo infuriating 
when you see people, particularly in positions of power making 
glaring mistakes. yes i was just as sad in primary school as i am 
know, i learnt all my spelling roolz.

an altogether better post than my offerings of late, dontcha think,
love and chocolate covered snacks,
