I'm now going for some kind of record for apologies on the list (four at the last count) from listees I met at Shepherd's Bush. All very nice, of course, but as I've already reassured Tag I have no recollection of being compared to a cat by Tag, didn't notice being bawled at by Rod, didn't feel insulted by JJ, and don't recall being asked my age by Stuart. The only apology I deserve is because the first cup of coffee tastes like washing up is now a week old. Thank you all for being so nice anyway... I must say that the apologies make a lovely change from any vitriol whihc might have been around not so long ago. I quite like the idea of a supplicating, apologising, penance paying list. Mea culpa, mea maxima culpa! Today's list penance for anything you might have done wrong is to sing a line of Belle & Sebastian to everyone you meet. Oh yes. Even the checkout girl at Sainsbury's. Tomorrow's list penance is devised by... Stuart Gardiner. I like this game.

OK then, today's penance is that for each thing you've said to someone on Sinister and regretted, you have to explain to one member of the opposite sex what an arab strap is. Bonus forgiveness if you give a demonstration. And I'll pass the penance parrot on to Tag, because I'm sure he's got more to apologise for than anyone else. Actually I probably ought to apologise to a certain listee for being drunk last night... The shark was nothing to do with me... Surely endurance has to be the entire 369 EP? Especially as it ends with Songs For Children... (And if anyone claims to manage a whole album, keep it to yourself or you'll make the rest of us feel very insecure) I'm developing another list crush. Does that make me unfaithful? I suppose so long as neither of you know who you are I'm safe for now...

do i get anything for the cool/medical clarification in the FAQ? to quote; " 15. Just what is an 'arab strap'? An arab strap is a leather device that a man wears during sex to help enhance the experience. It is in the most primitive form simply a g-string made of leather, which has a ring of smooth steel that accomodates the penis. This ring is placed lower than is natural and as such forces the penis to stand out more, it is this unnatural position which causes the sensation to be enhanced and for the erection to be maintained. the difference between this and viagra is that on an arab strap the steel ring will also serve to increase the female sensation as it massages the clitoris during sex and helps to give the woman a more intense orgasm.
