Ah, Sinister.
When the birds start a-twitterin and the trees start a-blossomin and the
sun starts a-shinin, you know its time for a Sinister Picnic. And,
seeing as your favourite band will be a-concertin too, why not go large
and make it a Big Weekend?
I bumped into Nal on the number 44 last night and we decided now was the
time to start organising. Shes going to post to the Bowlie board and let
them know these same details, so with our combined strengths, this one
should be massive, man. Incidentally, we are hoping for a Sinister vs
Bowlie footie match, so get in training now, lads. Just cos Sinisters
own Ronaldo, Ally Cook, will be in attendance, that doesnt mean he wont
need back-up from wannabe Zidanes, Figos and Roberto Carloses.
Anyway, heres the plan:
*Friday 16th May*
The Winchester Clubs first birthday celebrations are the night before the
gig! Apparently, this has aroused suspicions amongst some cynics that
wed changed the date to coincide with the Sinister Big Weekend.
Nonsense! The night was booked back at the beginning of February. It is
merely luck. And what great luck! For, performing for you that night
will be none other than the Dudley Corporation, featuring Joss and Dudley,
sometime of this very parish. In support, we have Belfast lovelies
Language of Flowers. And then theres dancing aplenty as Gav, Sarah,
Carey, Ally and my good self (all sometime of this very parish as well)
spin tunes for your dancing pleasure. Its from 9pm-2am, costs a
bargainous £3 to get in and you can find out more on our website here:

*Saturday 17th May*
Yo, Jordan Knight from New Kids on the Block's birthday. And also picnic
day! Pack a bag with food and drink* and bring it to Kelvinbridge Station
for 2pm. Dont go up the escalator onto the bridge itself take the exit
that leads onto the car park. Look out for a huge gang of people sporting
the usual duffel coat/flares/nerdy specs/upside-down badges combo. Smile
shyly and offer somebody a fag/swig of beer/dolly mixture. We will then
proceed/stagger to the gig as and when we see fit (those of you who wish
to start queuing at 4pm are, frankly, daft, but who are we to stop you?)
*Sunday*
RUIN.
Bobby Conn and the Pastels are both playing on Sunday night, so there are
options if youre feeling a bit less ruinous by eventide.
Right then, theres your plan. If youre of a nervous disposition and
would like my mobile phone number, write me off-list.

*Picnickers, please note: the Glasgows finest dont like it when you
drink alkyhol in a public place. For this reason, we recommend you bring
only weak lemon drink or Ribena. Ha! Fooled you! Actually, we recommend
you pour your vodka into a coke bottle or something equally inconspicuous,
or just be very careful. Having been made to pour away my G&T by Juliet
Bravo at a previous picnic, I know what Im talking about, man.
