Hullo,

I'm sure that this is utterly against list rules and Linda will beat me round the head with her Dyson but I attach, for your delectation, a mail from a Mr S Sharp who although on the list has not yet managed to work out how to sort the HTML from the plain text. Consequently in a psuedo Royal Mail way I am forwarding this on, and have invoiced him duly.

Of course, I'm not surprised.  This from a man who purposefully installs baths which attack and break my toes.  So I'll shut up and hand you over to Steve.

Hi kids 

Hmm, 'tis the last day of my holidays and I'm feeling all maudlin. Personally, I blame my work for giving me the best part of three weeks off and then wondering just why I'm contemplating upping my razor-blade/wrist ratio. As things stand my choices of last day recreation are limited; The first of these options (in a burst of originality) shall dub (1) Spend all day surfing the net looking at porn and mocked-up pics of Jamie Oliver (2) Spend all day watching MTV2 and screaming at the constant rotation of Green Day and Blink 182 vids (3) Send a rambling missive to Sinister and hope that no-one notices the lack of content ;)

Ah yes, messing about with names can result in serious psychiatric trauma and should not be attempted without adult supervision; One day when I was just a wee bairn, a friend took up karate and insisted that we all call it karate-do as "that's the proper Eastern name". After several weeks of this we all got a little tired of it and took the first three letters of our surnames and added 'Do' to the end. This annoyed him no small amount and as a bonus, I ended up with the name Sha-do. Cool eh? (oh come on! we WERE only ten) 

Anyhoo, back to the point; what we had neglected to remember was that our mate Mark Dillon would of course do it too and be mocked for the remainder of his schooldays :) Arsing about with names is dangerous! 

Love 

Steve S xxxxx 

p.s As an additional public service I would like to remind all Sinisterines that when tenpin bowling, releasing the 14 pound ball before it hits the ground is a GOOD thing. I just typed that lot out with a broken finger and it took bloody ages.
