Sinister: You're never praised, and now you're erased

Hullo,

    I'd like to apologise in advance if many errors occur regarding
capitalisation in this mail, but my shift key is on the point of death. I
normally view that kind of thing as important.
    Have you all just stopped talking? I thought Sinister had died a
terrible death when I didn't get a digest for two days. I though maybe this
was related to Honey's swanning off to NYC. Maybe he/she (it?) has left us
and evidently a list this big can't run itself. But then I got #84, so I'm
obviously wrong.
    I got the EP box set today (thanks Katy!). Mmmm! La Pastie de la
Bourgeoisie (can't be bothered to check spelling) has now overtaken
Expectations as my all time fave B&S tune.
    I've just had a flash of inspiration! You know when you go clubbing, and
there's some guy on E waving around a sign with TUNE! written on it? We
should all hit the clubs one night and wave big signs saying TWEE! Of course
we'd all be killed horribly.
    I'd like to advise anyone who's thinking on giving Jeepster £1.25 for a
bit of card not to do so. What is it with that slipcase? It took me ten
minutes to get a CD out. It's like a girdle for compact discs! Well, now
they're out those EPs are not going back in, no matter how cosy it is. Nice
pic though.
    Interesting note: The sun has been shining today and everybody has been
nice to me.
    This is embarrassing, but I'm well known for my self depreciation and
still cling to the belief that it's a loveable quality. Until I read digest
#84 I had not made the connection between FYHCYWLAP and the title of the new
B&S album. I just thought "FYHCYWLAP? What's going on there then?". Jesus
I'm stupid.

God be with you
Mr "I love Sheffield" Smiley
