Sorry I have neglected you for a whole 12 days! I have been busy, you know, reading livejournals and whatnot. I also went to this thing called TRUCK festival. It was amazing. I ate a whole chicken! Like Ozzy Osbourne, or something. Anyway right, I've also been busy thinking about PICNIC, and I think the 19th would be a better idea for the picnic now because it seems loads of people may be away for the weekend after that which is a wank holiday weekend. And we don't want to soil our pretty red knickers now do we. So.. Erm, I guess the traditional, usual, drill? Seems like so long ago now. SATURDAY 19th AUG. PRIMROSE HILL PICNIC 2:00pm : Outside Odeon Cinema, Parkway, Camden map: http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=q&hl=en&q=NW1+7AA&ie=UTF8&ll=51.539916,-0.143895&spn=0.004591,0.018926&om=1 2:20pm : Head up the hill 2:40pm : Be top of the hill 3:00pm : Eat food, drink beverages, socialise, compare the redness of knickers or whathaveyou 4:00pm : Feel fed, drunk, friendly, compare the redness of whathaveyou 7:30pm (or whenever) : Pub of some description, or maybe see "Pants Yell!!!" with "Boy Least Likely To" with the duke!! -------------------- Or something like that anyway! 2:00pm is the important bit! Try to be not late, or call me! (My number will be 07967 755446 but you can't call it yet cos I've left my phone elsewhere) Does it sound good to you? Mail me or something to let me know, and if you would like to come just so I can be assured that I won't be the only person there!!!

I can only put this down to the excitement of everyone with regards to the imminent picnic. It's only ONE day away, you know. So many folks already expressed their desire to attend! So yay! I was just listening to 'Mornington Crescent' again and I just wondered if there are still many Scotland references these days in the new albums. Or has that changed a bit because presumably the band travel around the world a lot more these days. (Although there were some USA references in Tigermilk like Providence and New York and Californaiay) Dunno really. I was just thinking of EMERGENCY PROCEDURES in case it rains tomrorow, and, since we are being terribly OLD-SKOOL just now, should it rain we will retire to the pub called "Spread Eagle" which is also on Parkway, Camden (on the left if you're making your way towards primrose hill from the odeon). So if it rains before 2pm we'll be MEETING THERE, and we'll GO THERE if it rains during picnic.

Anderson) Date: Fri, 18 Aug 2006 13:07:19 +0000 Subject: Sinister: somewhere off centre Message-ID: Sinister Today my sandwich was: Tesco Wholemeal bread (I like hovis best of both but its gone from 88p in Tesco to �1.02!!), reduced fat houmous(tastier than normal AND in the cheap section!), thousand island dressing and Rocket. All you londoners, get it up ye. I hope it rains. Not that I'm jealous your all getting to go to a picnic or anything.... Regardless maybe a picnic might result in a few more posts with interesting stories. (A few more than none is what?) or maybe even....PICTURES?! So today is a sad day because 3 years ago today I started my job and thats BAD as I was only intending staying one year. Last week I was off on holiday. And it only rained a tiny bit, it was generally warm and sunny and nice. It started on Sunday and ended the following Monday. Sunday: We went into town and did a bit of shopping and got some lunch. Monday: We went through to Edinburgh and had a fight and a pint. Tuesday: Drove nearly all the way to Inverness to the Landmark Centre. My camera batteries were dead and new ones cost �5.99!!!!! I was shocked. I didn't buy them. We also went to Boat of Garten on the way back and saw the Ospreys and a man with half his head missing. There is also a man I see in Tesco in Falkirk fairly often that has half his head missing. Wednesday: Drove to Glasgow with the intention of going to the Necropils but there are 2 Castle Streets in Glasgow and I picked the wrong one in my TomTom then we got all confused and started went home after some frustrating driving around. Thursday: Made it to Glasgow Necropilis! Parked in Concert Square and just walked, MUCH easier! Was lovely and hot and sunny up there. Got a Calipo ice pole on the way back. Friday: Glasgow transport museum and Kelvingrove museum then Wagamama on West George Street for lunch. Very tasty. Saturday: Blair Drummond Safari Park. Sunday: Last day off together. Had lunch in Pizza Express in St Andrews then went to the Deer Park in Fife on the way home. I tihnk the deer park was the highlight of my week off because I really liked feeding them. Even the ones that were covered in mud. Monday: My last day off. My best friends Dad's memorial service. I've been to many funerals but never a memorial service. Turns out they're pretty much the same but without the coffin. I never actually met her dad but she had asked me to go. I cried fo the man I had never met. The service ended witha recording of him singing a Dudley Moore song. It was heartbreaking and funny at the same time. /quit _________________________________________________________________ Windows Live� Messenger has arrived.

I could not make it, as I was attending a festival. I trust that Kenneth will report back. That's what I am going to do, now. Weather conditions have been mixed. At one point it was hurtling straight down and I felt for the rock band who were gamely playing on through the late afternoon air. But when the rain cleared in the evening I wandered through the festival and caught THE NEW CASSETTES. They don't look like their picture in the programme. They sound a lot like the Futureheads, but without the Sunderland accents. I could easily imagine hearing them on R1. The singer announced a 'firework solo', because in the distance Saturday night's fireworks were going up. So that was exciting, and after that you could ignore the band, and watch the lovely fireworks. Today MUNGO JERRY took the stage. I know that Peter Miller has been anxiously awaiting news of this. He started by playing the riff of 'Summertime'. He played it several more times through the set, as a 'teaser'. But then he would play another song. He played a lot of R&B. It was a bit like Status Quo, you could say, but with more eccentricity attached. You could imagine SAXONDALE watching with some approval. At one point this old ROCKER couple walked past in denim. They were very thin. It is nice to see THE KIDS out at these events, too. Anyway, the Mungo Jerry fellow had a lot of energy - he kept exclaiming about the performance - 'Nice!', 'We're gonna rock now', that class of thing; and moving a lot as he played. He took lots of solos, but so did his talented guitar sidekick. He tried to get the scattered audience to participate with applause and with singing rather complicated vocal phrases. He also liked to tell of when he had written the songs. The answer was usually 1971. He introduced one song thus: 'I wrote this for Elvis, but he didn't have time to record it'. It was a #1 hit called 'It Feels Like I'm In Love'. It's a tune I quite admire, but his treatment wasn't the best. Eventually he got around to 'Summertime', thanking Britain for keeping it popular for 36 years. It was a fairly elongated treatment. Then he played some high-life guitar, very impressively, on an African sort of celebratory number. And he finished with more Quo boogie, during the coda of which he gave members of the band their spot, and also told us all: 'Be safe - get home safely - rock all the way! boogie on home! Don't get busted! Treat people as you would like to be treated ... be nice to children ... and old people ... and animals!'. A few seconds after he had walked off, the compere insisted that the applause had been sufficient to get him back on. Then he launched into 'Summertime' again. On the way out, the AIR AMBULANCE was giving a demonstration. What a magnificent machine it is. It can take off and land so swiftly, a force of - not nature, of course - of human invention, I suppose, of engineering. It dipped its cockpit in final greeting as it took to the skies again. This is the Air Ambulance that Pele campaigns for, by the way. I would like to be able to report that he emerged from it bearing the World Cup. A track that is more than quite good is 'The Draize Train'. It's a lot more than quite good. I like the way they persuaded Eric Clapton to take part in that session - while he was recording his LP next door, I believe. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Not proper RB I'm afraid as I'm in a rush, but here's a brief ode to the delightful picnic last Saturday, attended by Ken, myself plus bump, Mr and Mrs Bapps aka Ben and Rachel, Robster and James: ********* Another sunny day, I met them outside the Odeon Ken was digging vests, but someone had stolen the Unwins Bapps took a photograph of us in the herbaceous border It broke the heart of goths and tourists and joggers and mums. Another rainy day, we're trapped inside with a few pints Archel's on the OJ, steamy windows and stray cats We've had the hilltop view looking out on the London Eye And on a Saturday evening ringtones play in the dusk. Another day in August, we've not got enough for football There's frisbee for a bit, the wind is giving us fuck all We saw them in the corner of our eyes on the sidelines The dogs and pigeons bid us to hysterical deeds. All the crisps are gone, we wander back to the tube stop I take the Brighton route, they stay out after midnight We took the Regents Park Road over to the offy We found the avenue of trees went up Primrose Hill That crazy avenue of trees, Sinister's living there still. ******** And indeed it is. Archelx PS. Has anyone seen the photo of Stuart in Icelandic footballing mode on the B&S website at the moment? Arms, legs and shoulders of sex or what?! +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister at missprint.org.
