- why not contribute, see your name in lights
and help this ezine grow!
So it's autumn. Days of screeching along wet leaf-strewn
roads hoping the brakes stop you skidding into that lorry. Dig out
the old coat that you haven't seen for six months and wonder why you
didn't empty the pockets of sweets which have now melted into a horrible
gunge at the bottom. The evenings are dark - and then for some unknown
reason we put the clocks back and make them even darker. Autumn, with
a silent N. Enjoy!
SORRY!
For the delay in getting this ezine out and about this month.

Poetry
I wish I loved the Human Race;
I wish I loved its silly face;
I wish I liked the way it walks;
I wish I liked the way it talks;
And when I’m introduced to one,
I wish I thought “What Jolly Fun!”
Sir Walter
A Raleigh. (Not that Walter Raleigh!)
Blair
& The Clash
Have you seen Tony Blair singing
The Clash's
Should I stay or should I go ! Rather amusing, though it
runs out of steam at the end. But have a look. Especially if
you are part of the google generation!
Borat
Do you remember the Ali
G show? OK that was mainly awful, but remember a small character
called Borat? A Kazakstani reporter who spoke politically
incorrect horrors, but in doing so brought out many of the
prejudices of the people he was talking to? Actually a great
satire hidden in cringe-inducing Can I buy your wife? type
questions.
Borat has been made into a movie: Borat: Cultural Learnings
of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan!
which is coming out soon, so watch out and make sure you see
it! See the trailerabove. Send reviews to reviews@concepttshirts.co.uk

Reviews
Extreme barbecue team: Remember
where you heard this first - the extreme barbecue team set
off at 7.05 AM to an isolated beach. On arrival the rain was
lashing down and the barbecue needed to be weighed down to
stop it taking off. To light it needed a tin of lighter fluid.
By 8.30 the breakfast was cooked and the team members enjoyed
steak sandwiches, sausages, eggs and juice. Everyone was soaked
through, then they went on to work.
Extreme barbecue - the new sport for decadent flaneurs. Watch
this space, we will tell you how to sign up very soon. Then
you can arrange your own extreme barbecues in your area, or
join ours!
