Oooh, get her
"I wouldn't claim superiority normally, but if taste is being spoken of in factual terms, my knowledge and love of the records that set up music as it is today, from the 40s up to the early 70s gives me a much better insight into music than Theo and Vikram's mate."
I think you dropped your handbag, darling.
Seriously, the world would be a better place if all wrightypoo threads were strangled at birth.
Headscarves on women and fundamentalism
They seem like an American Taliban in waiting...
Sister Wendy Beckett
The Late Mother Theresa
Jean Alexander
Kathy Staff
The last two only count as celebs if you like Last of the Summer Wine.
Apparently...
Michaela is a fan of 'backdoor' love. Maybe that's the secret of her youth?
Mellow Gold by Beck
The hidden track at the end is brutal. Naughty Beck!
Maxine Carr
It's sick but funny.
Shower, even
?!
Golden Showder more like
...fshhh!
As they say on Popbitch
Would. But she is massively annoying. Bring back Miquita!

Can't think of any more right now...
For Evil Shitari to triumph...
...all that is required is for good DiSers to say nothing.
Yap!
Their lead singer has a new band called Pink Punk -- he does some good spoken word performances now as well.
If the printer has Ethernet...
Shouldn't you be able to plug it straight into the box that serves up your wireless using an RJ-45 to RJ-45 cable? Assuming it's an ADSL modem router with ethernet ports and wireless all in one thingy.
But you don't like The Courtesy Group
So you clearly have no taste
They're not that good
I saw them support The Courtesy Group recently -- didn't think Mills & Boon were as impressive as people make out.
Mickey Mouse
He's very modest.
God you're such a pleb
A furious gourmet writes: Get down the chipshop then, they know your face in there.
Sorry about the fury, but I think a nice dinner can make a good evening wonderful.
Why are you leaving Catch...
...it's tiny but it's alright.
I've got it on vinyl
Half of the tracks sound like Harold Budd, t'other half sounds like the Cocteaus. It's all good though and the album artwork is lush. I don't think it's been deleted so you should be able to get it on CD still.
LBC
Nick Ferrari sucks shit! There's a loony on at 1am who thinks he's a ninja too...I think he's called Adrian Allen.
Sixteen Days/Gathering Dust
The first few minutes are cheesy, but when that Linn drum machine and Liz Frazer's vocals kick in...by god it's good.
Crowbaring, eh?
Yes you made yourself look really good there.

Mmm, mayonaissey hell
And I'm taking Beth Ditto down with me to I tell ya!
I asked a fundamentalist...
...where are the dinosaurs in the Bible (and no I wasn't quoting Bill Hicks, Jurassic Park had just come out). She got her Bible out and found some bit about lizards or summat.
I thought these were made up...
But a quick Google(R) reveals that they are genuine. Truly we live in prolix times.
Free Trade Agency?
Utterly useless if I recall.
A gay actor? On Neighbours?
That's never happened before. Just ask Jason Donovan. Or post this on Popbitch where they thrive on it.
Chicks Dig Jerks
Book some good acts in Birmingham -- they're putting Hawnay Troof on this Friday for example.

She is not a band
If I'd asked for populist sopranos, you would have been right.
Song to the Siren, obv
Either version, except I think the Tim Buckley version has a line about being as puzzled as an oyster or something. So best stick with the This Mortal Coil version.
That you came up with such a list...
...a mere four minutes after I posted is scary. You must be one of those artificial intelligences I keep seeing on the telly.

This bumping business can get really tiring
London Pride, yum
And bottles of Duvel. You don't get that at the Luminaire up the road...
Good venue...
The Good Ship's alright...

Bullshit
The friction between the stylus and the groove create heat. Dust or debris in the groove 'explodes' (well, a mini explosion) which warps the wall of the groove. Result: permanent damage.
Better to use a pro cleaning machine or use a good quality fluid. I bought AM record cleaner from PNR on Tottenham Court Road and it seems to do a nice job.
No wonder they went bust...
...that and that awful woman that worked upstairs. The Sister Ray crew are much nicer -- don't know if they'd charge £1. Try asking them.
Sister Ray...
Have a machine in their basement that cleans records. If you ask nicely and pay a small sum, I'm sure they'd clean it for you. Reckless on Berwick Street charged £1 per record for cleaning until they went belly up...
Dangermouse Soundtrack
"Wherever there is danger he'll be there,
Dangermouse!"
Les Georges Leningrad
Saw them live, the fans were going wild but I couldn't quite see why.
I'm still amused by...
...the fact that Ten City Nation is an anagram of Tiny Tit Nonce.
