Sinister: The scars of Beckham healed (tho this e-mail is more about GIGGS)

Hi all,

I saw a guy on a tube train with tourettes syndrome the other day and he 
kept swearing at people.  Especially when he kept trying to read this other 
guy's newspaper, whenever the guy moved tourettes man would should "FUCK 
YOU" really loudly.  And also harassing this girl who liked to sit on the 
tube train floor, who herself was quite odd indeed for that reason.

Fuck.  Chris Geddes is a man of taste.  He demonstrated this fact when he 
provided the A for someone's Q at
http://www.banchory.net/belleandsebastian/qanda.html

------
<Jeremy Quist - California> Q: My roommate and I just bought a couple decks 
of your Belle and Sebastian playing cards. We want to play some card games 
with them and just wanted to know what some of the bands' favorite card 
games are.

<Mick> A: Shithead. That's the name of the game, incidentally.
<Chris> A: Late night poker.

------
Ahh, yes, a fellow late night poker enthusiast.  The next question for Chris 
though, should be "Can you explain the dealer button to us?"

Chris Geddes is a man of such good taste that I have decided to go and watch 
the band he is in this May, when they'll be playing!  For those who haven't 
yet signed up to the B&S news email 
list(http://www.banchoryshop.net/belleandsebastian/list/list.asp) here are 
some bits that are mentioned on an e-mail from Katrina, and on the B&S 
Website News Section...

A couple of summers ago B&S played at the Barrelands in Glasgow, it was 
really great.  I hope this year it'll be even better!  There was a massive 
sinister meetup last time round too... Maybe England vs Scotland 
sinisterfitba rematch is in order!  Fucking A.
