Sinister: trinkets and baubles are yours...

bunnies!

and what freak weather conditions has today brought you? earthquakes? snow? 
today here is sunny and blossomy. and people at verk have brought back 
toffee from edin-burgh (like chris de burgh, only... oh dear), called 
'highland toffee'. you have to smash it with a hammer. it's v nice, and not 
too sticky. i feel v v sick now though, but the smashing is so much fun.

ooh, ooh, but i've found a *particularly* good cure for over-sweetness - 
it's *apple* ribena!! (what do 'bena purists feel about the new flavours? 
jenowl?) - particulary right when taken with choco-late. even better when 
hungover on train to work - apple 'bena and chocolate nutri-grain bar! i 
have a sneaking suspicion that nutri grain bars may be, in some way, eville.

anyhoo.

i think geri's new look is rubbish. i liked her in her sequinned swimming 
cossie days. maybe because i always wanted to be a synchronised swimmer, i 
dunno.

>Here's my question for sinister. What is the best Monty Python sketch ever?

my monty p nominations are mostly from 'and the holy grail' (a bit like 'and 
you will know us by the trail of the' - no?) - is a fil-m allowed?

bestest bits - the black knight sketch, the brave sir robin song, 'fetchez 
la vache', and when king arthur says 'a duck', and everyone gasps.

and the perky ex-leper bit in life of brian, (but that may be because i have 
a crush on young michael palin - sshh). funny, was watching life of b. last 
sun night, and at the crucifixion bit at the end, i wanted to cry. sometimes 
it's nice feeling tired and emotional, 'cause it makes you look after 
yourself better in a duvet on the sofa kinda way.

was also *gutted*, really furrowy brow-y about the rector business, as had 
just assumed sm would win by a landslide, silly me. and felt properly sick 
about not seeing *the* gig. oh, but the report was fab - david, i imagined 
you like jimmy thingy off superman, in a beige mac, with a hat with a big 
'PRESS' card in it.

>There were 3 spoilt papers

somehow, i find this touching. i like that people can be relied upon to 
spoil their papers, and i like that it's called 'spoiling'.

>Berkely or Berkely?

it's Beserkly! as in Jonathan Richman - the Beserkly Years. do i always talk 
about jr? next time i will talk about the beta band, and beards in rock.

love and kisses sweeties, and a going-home party bag
