I=E2=80=99m the Duke of Harringay and I=E2=80=99m an=E2=80=A6 oh no, =
hang on, wrong place, wrong time.

I=E2=80=99m The Duke of Harringay and although I am 18 (eighteen!!) =
years older than I was when I first posted on Sinister I am no less =
foolish. Well, perhaps a bit. But only a bit.

I must say it=E2=80=99s rather lovely to think that many of the old =
names and faces may come creeping out from whatever corner of the world =
they ended up in to post amusing anecdotes about their Belle & Sebastian =
related antics. Me, well today I ended up driving (I know! The Duke =
driving a car!!!!) around for well over an hour, ostensibly looking for =
a car wash that was open, but in reality using it as excuse to listen to =
much of Tigermilk and most of Sinister for the first time in far too =
dashed long. It was glorious. There is something so wonderful in =
listening to a much adored record for the first time in a long while and =
just luxuriating in the easy familiarity, isn=E2=80=99t there?

I also rather liked the new record. Perhaps I will report back about it =
at some point if you are all damnably unlucky.

Someone else should report back about that filum that Struan made =
recently. I=E2=80=99m afraid The Duchess and I found it rather flat, but =
there you are. I quite liked some of the character=E2=80=99s glasses, if =
that=E2=80=99s any help?

Right, I=E2=80=99m off for a refill of the whisky glass. Who=E2=80=99s =
next?

The Duke
