Hello sinister,
It's a while since I've written so I may take a minute to get into the swing of it. Like when you go back to school and you find you now write like a seven year old and your hand aches after a couple of lines.
I've been to Barcelona and got my a/s level results since i last posted. Both of which were great. I am now the proud owner of 4 As and a peely back. Nice.
I am writing now because I feel all naughty and my stomach is blushing, if you know what that feeling is.
See, i read all my sinister e-mails in one account and send them from another. And I always thought I was such an anonymous little sinister poster that no-one would reply to me personally so I didn't need to check the account I sent mails from :(
And then my e-mail account went mad because it was overloaded with sinister mails since February. I think it was just scared really by the volume of words used, because on the majority of lists, people can only write words like cum, and c u, and big teen boobies. Sinister with its intellectual debate and people who can remember how to spell full words probably came as a shock. So it said I had to delete the mails. And I have spent this morning doing that, and along with all the sinister mails which I have read in my other account there were some replying to my mails and being all lovely and friendly to a shy listee. So I felt awful because I really like getting to know people but I must have seemed very rude.
I have replied to most of them, apart from john john, who wrote me a message in march. And I thought he wouldn't remember sending it, so I couldn't really reply. But, john john, yes it was me who sent you the christmas parcel, from my other e-mail address. I did two, one with jelly and one with custard, hope you enjoyed whichever one you got :)
After all that apologising, a bit of content. It's funny there's been not much mention of the new single apart from through matador. Or is that just that i've lost the mail that said about it and everyone else will laugh behind my back because they know every detail, have guitar tabs and have set up a separate list purely in honour of the epic new B+S song.
Maybe it's just on American release, I don't know. Although that would seem funny from Belle and sebastian who I wouldn't have thought would deny dwellers of the United Kingdom a merry ditty.
United Kingdom. hehe. What a funny name for our islands. Maybe it's just me who thinks a kingdom should have minstrels and men wearing little green skirts with tights and princesses with cone shaped hats rather than Tony Blair and ( possibly ) Kenneth Clarke as its icons. Ah well.
I am off now to make some jam from the blackcurrants I spent ages collecting yesterday from our garden. I don't know why we have blackcurrants they are all fiddley to pick, and you have to add lots of jam sugar to make it palatable. not sure I spelt that correctly.
Cheerio for now,
Gracexxx
