UK Watercooler Thirty-Three (and a third) : Revolutions Per Minute

Maybe time to invest in that hat.

Tell Johnny B I said hello!

Dada, I reccomend a straw boater. They are marvellous things, so light.

I'd look a right tosser in a straw boater - I'd look like I voted for Boris Johnson or sumthin'!

there are other types of hat with wide brims that'd do the job. Like the one I took on holiday to Jordan with me which makes me look like Indiana Jones.

check that out

Not neccessarily! Some boys can make straw hats look quite decadent!

OK, I will stop this. (Though you all know that I won't.)

But that is a panama rather than a boater which is much more acceptable.

A Pork Pie may be apt.

xpost, TB is clearly wearing a boater and is a tosser.

I am running out of time, but Emil.y if you are reading this, I have received your Flickrmail and I am On It!

(I will tear myself away from drawing pics of Marmaduke for long enough.)

Bloke with the beard next to him is clearly a man of style and taste though, the baby blue suits him.

lol @ the thought of Tom D in a Porkpie hat

A porkpie hat might be good. I'm no Thelonius Monk tho.

... I know it's Mingus but I mean that Monk could have worn a lampshade (probably did) and still looked cool

that pic is porkpie from Desmonds though.

I know I was referring to "Goodbye..." . Could I get away with one of these, do you think:

Would tom suit a boater? I don't know what he looks like but I picture him as a guy about Norman's age with a beard and long flowing dark locks down to his shoulders at least 70s style.

About as wrong as it's possible to be

I'm more Conrad Schnitzler than Edgar Froese

i doubt youre as old as that somehow

So Tom (or anyone) bought any cds or records lately?

Bollocks to buying stuff, 's all downloaded off the net now, innit

I thought you were old skool.

Gmail is still putting cooler cookie emails in my spam folder despite me saying its not spam.
Is anyone else having this problem?

I checked my gmail spam folder and couldn't find any Watercooler emails in there.

As for buying stuff, well I did get a Wolfhounds 12" for a quid in the MVE yesterday. And I just ordered these off Amazon:

Stick Men With Rayguns - Some People Deserve To Suffer CD
VA - BIPPP French Synth Wave CD

Having (too briefly) met Tom last year, all I can say is LOLOLOLOLOL RONG.

I used to imagine Tom as looking like Kevin Coyne, b/c oh his old email address.

That was the name he used in his letters to the wire wasnt it?

Does He Take Sugar?

Oh good lord... ha ha, um. No. Dada is as bald as an egg. And very thin and rather pointed and very Scottish looking.

I'm listening to lots of Scott Walker. Except for Tilt. Which confuses me.

This is my straw boater:

PAINTER MAN, PAINTER MAN, WHO WOULD BE A PAINTER MAN?!?!?

Wait, that's lipstick. I'm confused.

Pointed?

Tom D, take a compliment where it is intended!

Nice jacket, btw!

Nice jacket.

Turmoil is afoot at my work. Our entire agent support team got made redundant yesterday. Management are trying to convince us our team is safe, but I wouldn't be at all surprised if we lose some people in the next couple of months.

If g00bs is around - say hi if you see me at the Times New Viking/Jay Reatard gig tonight!

lol jacket xpost

Did anyone see that Let's LOL @ Hippies programme on BBC4 last night? 1973 docu. about a band, and their roadies, girlfriends etc living in a commune in Norfolk somewhere? And where they are now, and what they're doing now?

Oh damn I wanted to watch that. (no, obv)

Anyone going to see Dr C on saturday?

Didn't know about that?

Yes, where's that? 1973 = horrible year + period.

I was reminded by email today. it's ANM, i still have seen them, with Thee Templars (No idea about them), the Fallen Leaves (great early 60s psych/beat outfit), and The Prellies (no idea about them either) At the Parliament Club, inn on the green Ladbroke Grove.

Have you all not seen that jacket before? I wore it constantly last summer! I love the mad paisley. I think that was why Carruthers started hanging around me, he was just entranced by the paisley.

Job turmoil is teh suck. Another nibble from a headhunter for me... they nibble but they never bite.

Ah! The Prellies is the band of Texan Chrissie's husband, Gaz! You remember him from Truck? I should go to that.
