Sinister: scooby do/be/do

[Sam Walton]

Hello.

It's a lazy Sunday afternoon, and Sinister seems a perfect thing to do/be.

Rachel Fruitloop wins the prize for most referential Sinister post ever. You 
win a year's supply of ">" signs.

Amy Apple Jacks mentioned Hallowe'en parties. I went to one last night, at 
Feather-Boa's house. It was fun. People were dressed in black with black 
nail polish and all the rest of it. List Lurkers Gina and Mr Hallifax were 
both in attendance, and there was at least one ex-member there too. I didn't 
see F-B. By all accounts she spent most of the night hugging her toilet.

On Thursday there was a small-scale Sinister picnic for most of the York 
Sinister Massive. It was fun, although it wasn't really a picnic, more 5 
people sitting in somebody's bedroom, drinking beer and eating Party Rings 
and Jelly Babies. We all went round to F-B's house and watched all the B&S 
videos and their appearance on Top Of The Pops. Gina provided the vid of 
them on The Tube, and we all sat round being twee. Especially twee was Mr 
Chris Jones, aka Mummy I've Grazed My Knee, who made plenty of baffling 
comments about various aspects of this fine parish. MIGMK took detailed 
minutes of the whole evening, so I'll leave him to fill in any blanks.

Rob Brennan mentioned the new Pulp album. It is indeed fab, and everybody 
should buy it. At risk of sounding like Wobbly Taperecordings Inc I'll 
continue on the "Good Records" theme. "Versus" by the Kings Of Convenience 
is also fantastic, although people should buy "Quiet Is The New Loud" first. 
"Drukqs" by the Aphex Twin is unpronouncable (I'm of the opinion it should 
be said "Drug Use") but utterly madly wonderous, and "My Father My King" by 
Mogwai is just them showing off, but excellently so.

Anyway, not much left to say. Wrap up warm, you crazy kids - it's only 
getting colder and darker from now until February...

love

Asm.x
