Oh this is in reference to one of our exciting competitions, where some months ago now, we gave away loads and loads of twelve inch singles. Had one or two LPs actually that got into the boxes as well, and uh, the Nabs came round and collected them all out of our garden shed and they've been distributing them, they've actually run out, uh, they've got to, most of the winners, all but one of the winners I think, and then ran out of records, so uh, quite what we're going to do about this I don't know but something will be done and my apologies whose not got he's, still got not got his or her records, but then one of the winners was in somewhere like Belgrade, you know, so uh, uh, perhaps that's the person who hasn't got the records I don't know. Uh but uh, an email from Pip Iain and the little Fin, "your weary delivery boys arrived on Saturday morning, we all hit it off, having breakfast and beers, now we're meeting up for the youth gig in Bristol this weekend. There was some real gems in the box, listening to the Broadway Project album as I write this, lots of dodgy house too which is OK because we've lots of dodgy house friends who love that sort of thing, uh, hundreds of records plus new friends, not bad for a little haiku eh?" That's cos they won the competition, one of the, with a little haiku. And then it says "uh our mate Ed wanted to apologise for an incident at the Medicine Bar during the One Live at Birmingham thing when he tried to pull his rug out from under you. He didn't realise you were on the air, he just wanted his rug. These drummers eh?" I don't remember that incident at all. I have no idea what they're talking about [Mary-Anne laughs] But then I don't remember a lot of things. You know its uh, its one of the interesting things about uh, getting older where you just things just, just go and they're jut not there anymore and you, and uh, you see someone that you've known for years and you think and who are you, you know, and you can't say that to people [more laughter from Mary-Anne] and its or you just find yourself gong somewhere and you've forgotten where you're going, or why you're going there, that, uh, life is very confusing, but uh, you know interesting so far. Obviously there'll come a time when its not interesting at all and I'm dead, but uh, [Mary Anne laughs 'Oh God'] Well Its true though isn't it? [Mary Anne: 'don't say that'] Well you see I don't even play records, all these death metal things, you hear about opening graves and dragging corpses around and things, and I say, well I'm going to be dead, and uh, you express horror. Uhm ,where are we now…..
