Sinister: new fable

[Jules Markham]

greetings and salutations!
So what have persil, batchelors supernoodles and Offbeat got in common?
They've all been advertised by John 'God' Peel
I was supposed to be going to offbeat tonight, with it's free stickers and 
penchant for 1/2 man 1/2 biscuit songs and gills perpetual pulp embargo. But 
I was in a bit of a spirit ditch, and even though I'd managed to find chris 
a fox badge to give him, I stayed home and baked a chocolate cake for mikeys 
birthday. It looks pretty impressive. I covered in with melted chocolate and 
made a heart out of smarties in the middle. I wanted to get more for him for 
his birthday, but it kinda snuck up on me, and so I'm just taking him out to 
our 2nd fave pub in sheffield to spend all day drinking.

We heard that B&S are touring again, and after much discussion, we've 
decided not to go. For one thing, money is pretty tight, and for another 
thing, we both end up crying through most of the songs. we remember 
listening to them late at night, alone in the darkness and finding meaning 
in every word, every sigh. I miss the stories on the sleeves, I used to buy 
12" versions just for reading them.

well, I'll pootle off now, and just add that anyone who misses the black fox 
can find her at www.theblackfox.co.uk, where there's a new story and 
illustration.
sleep well
Jules
