DEAR GCSE-TAKING 'ZINERS

This isn't a patronising letter. It is genuine with some friendly advice from someone who did GCSEs last year.

Don't neglect your studies in order to go out every night.

See it like this: if you stop in and miss a few months of hanging out on street corners you could get better exam results and a better social life that comes with the money of a better job. Seriously consider A-levels.

Mr Unreadable

Consider one too. It's a scream. Work

NOW, PARTY THE REST OF YOUR LIFE!

 

DEAR WLW

I was made to endure the Eurovision Song Contest as my little sister made everyone watch it because someone from Boyzone was presenting it.

The final song - from Iceland - must have been one of the worst things I've ever seen. Mind you, if it's a true reflection of Iceland I'm sure holiday booking for there will soar sky-high. It consisted of women strutting around in minute pieces of bondage gear!!!

C'est La Vie

I'm sure those Icelandic girls dress

SKIMPY TO ATTRACT THE GEYSERS!

 

DEAR 'ZINE

Has anyone else noticed the distinct lack of female drummers in popular bands today. Can anyone point out an exception to this rule, or can women just not play drums?

They sing, play keyboard, take lead, rhythm and bass - but they have an inability to hit anything?

It should force the Spice Girls to take up playing instruments - oh, but they'd need talent for that!

Wonder(thing)

Imagine Scary Spice on the drums...

IT'S ANIMAL OFF THE LUPRETS!

 

DEAR SOUTHERNERS

NORTH: Oasis, Joy Division, Stone Roses, James, Smiths, Morrissey, Take That, Simply Red, M People, Black Grape, Happy Mondays, Olive, United, Bolton, Bury, Wigan, Macclesfield.

Subterranean Homesick Mancunian

MOST IMPORTANTLY HOME OF WLW?
