Sinister: Addenda and Errata

[Mark Hester]

Hello!

So who spotted the mistake in the Field Mice album title in my last post? 
Instead of "Where'd You Learn to Kiss that Way?" I typed *Lean*.  Tee hee, one
of my best typos ever!  Thanks Dirty Vicar and mmm skyscraper for the Sarah
info, btw.

Good to hear that tigermilking went well...so many djs!  The picnic looked fun,
too....I think I recognised everyone in Lucy's pics with the exception of the
girl in the stripey T-shirt next to Ken playing catch.

I would have been there and would dearly have loved to be there, but instead I'd
bought a ticket to the Truck Festival.  This is organised by the boys out of
Goldrush and took place in a field in Steventon...a village exactly half way
between Bristol and London, or so it says on the wall of the North Star, a pub
made famous locally when the owner, on being refused a drink after hours, went
and got a bulldozer (not a red bulldozer, I suspect it was JCB
regulation-yellow) and knocked part of his own pub down!  And then when it went
to court he was charged with "making unauthorised alterations to a listed
building"!  You've gotta love our legal system.

Anyway I saw lots of great bands at Truck (so called coz the main stage is
actually a truck).  I think my faves were Saloon and Finlay (there's more about
it on my blog: http://grandpontgenie.blogspot.com


Then last weekend was the family reunion thing when I got to meet my cousin's
2-year old daughter Holly (born at Christmas, natch) for the first time and I
also found out that my other cousin, an interior designer is going to be working
in Oxford soon!  yay!  I may also be going to another great family gathering at
my Dad's cousin's place in Hertfordshire in a month's time.  I've never met him
before, but apparently he lives in a folly which is basically a tower with one
room on each floor and a spiral staircase.

well, hopefully that won't clash with the next Tigermilking, anyway :)

Mark.
