Sinister: Leicester Fiesta

[Madeleine McNeil]

So, our little Leicester picnic took place this weekend. While all the rest 
of you were dancing like loons in London Town, a few of us met in the park 
and sedately ate sandwiches and drank ribena. In attendence were James, 
John, Tom, Danny, Helen, myself and two friends of Tom's (names forgotten, 
sorry). I felt terrible, having spent Saturday night drinking all sorts of 
rubbish and dancing to the Dirty Dancing soundtrack at a friend's barbeque. 
I was so drunk at the barbeque I even ended up drinking some dodgy liquor 
someone bought back from their holidays. Sometimes I am just so disappointed 
in myself.

The picnic, after an awkward (we all got lost) and sticky (i kept dropping 
my fizzy drink and spraying it everywhere) start, was lovely. We watched the 
skate kids skating and the fitba kids playing fitba and Helen, Danny and 
James playing frisbee while I sat quietly and tried not to make any sudden 
movements. Then James produced some beer and even though my first thoughts 
were 'Urg, alcohol. How horrible', I soon got back into the swing of things 
and perked up. I'm not one to give in easily. I burbled quite a lot of 
nonsense, weebled off to the nasty toilets and said a cheery hello to a 
fellow boozer. We discussed our mission to Birmingham and looked at John's 
colourful map, and I got sidetracked by the amount of pubs near the 
Alexandra theatre. Goodness, there's alcohol everywhere these days.

The only thing that would have made the picnic any better would have been 
the attendence of Mr Ken Chu, Sir, Geek God and all round Good Bloke. But as 
he sent me a parrot I'm sure I'll find it in my heart to forgive him.

Nuff respec to the Leicester Massive. I'm sure some of us will bring you 
some gritty reportage of the Brum gig, too.

Love
Madeleine
