Hi Sinister!

The Bowlie Weekender was in April 1999, just over a year before Legal Man
was released.  I seem to remember the Maisonettes were just Friends of the
Band so its likely theyre (some of) the same people dancing in the
background.  If you want a really good version of Landslide, see if you
can find Evie Sands doing it (Ive tried and failed).  She doesnt sound
like a strangled hamster, unlike some headscarf-wearers hem hem.  There's
more information than this in the archives btw - go to
http://www.missprint.org/sinister and type something into that there white
box.

Hey, Scots!  Get down to the Oxfam record shop on Glasgows trendy Byres
Road.  I hear Stupot has downsized his record collection and they have a
box of his stuff on the counter with a big DONATED BY STUART MURDOCH sign.
 I have been told the prices are steeper for the discs in the box than for
identical records on the shelves, but what the heck, it all goes to a good
cause and you never know, you might end up with some fluff from his carpet
or other such Ebayable items accidentally tucked inside the sleeve.

Wasnt it good to hear from olde tymers like Alasdair Cook?  I think he
should post more often.  I was sure the Pynefoxe would post soon after he
saw that Cookie had, but he remaynes sylent.

Keeping in theme, we saw Chrys Lynyrd and his lovely wife Julia the other
night.  Chrys was playing with Ally Kerr, whose record you should buy
right now, at the Winchester Club.  There were no wizard hats but there
were squeezeboxes"  Also, we heard that our favourite hornblower Mick
Cooke has got married!    Congratulations, sir.  /me listens to the sound
of breaking hearts across the nation.

This is the story of my worst injury:

Once upon a time, there was a girl called Lucy.  She was a bit frumpy and
square.  Whilst on holiday in the Lake District, she and her family
decided to climb a big hill, as one does in that part of the world.  After
much huffing, puffing and intake of mint cake they reached the top. 
Right, says Dad, time to be making our way back to the B&B for tea and
scones.  They started to descend.

Suddenly, in the corner of her eye, Lucy spotted something moving quickly.
 What could it be?  Surely not the spirit of Peter Rabbit being chased by
the spirit of Mr McGregor?  No, it was a Fell Runner!  He was pegging it
down the hillside, jumping over rocks and streams and Lucy thought he was
terrific.  Little did she know how Fell Runners got their name
 (ominous
music)

Lucy started to peg it down the hill after the Fell Runner.  Her ankles
and knees were strong, her muscles were springy and she found it such fun!
 Until she hit a rock.  And did a few somersaults in the air.  And landed
hard.  Ouch, what could that excruciating pain in her hand be?  She looked
down and noticed that the middle finger of her right had was sticking out
at a funny angle.  Actually, quite a serious angle (approximately 45
degrees to her other fingers).  She screamed in a bloodcurdling sort of
way.  Her father said here, let me have a look and she held her hand out
to him in a VERY TRUSTING MANNER.  Daddy could not be trusted.  He took
her finger and yanked it!  Ow! Ow! OW!!  But it was back in place.  They
went to Blackpool pleasure beach that night.  Lucy did not go on any
rides, but ate paracetamol and cockles while the tears ran down her face.
