THE LOOSE CANNON The ultimate oxymoron has to be RAP MUSIC. Please print this — I spent ages thinking that up. Consider it done.

NEMESIA Get as many friends as possible... then betray them! I shall do my best.

DAVE SNAIL Are there any 'Ziners from the wonderful place that Lincolnshire isn't? If so, I'm from Louth, a dull market town. I've been to Spalding — that's Lincolnshire innit?

 

UH-OH

OK, I'm getting worried. Nearly every day that it's been on this summer I've watched, wait for it, Watercolour Challenge!

Everyone keeps laughing at me, but I can't help it! I've always liked art and stuff but not enough to... well...

Hannah Gordon really annoys me though. She talks so excruciatingly slowly! It drives me nuts!

The DimGirl (from the molehole)

I am now, officially, 100%

SCARED OF YOU!

 

ANNOYING THINGS THAT CUSTOMERS IN SUPERMARKETS DO

  1. Come to my checkout despite me putting the "till closing" sign up, and then complain.
  2. Not use the "next customer" signs, and then complain when I start to do the next person's shopping.
  3. NEVER hear what their shopping comes to the first time you tell them.
  4. Talk to me
  5. Look at me
  6. Breathe

I think it may be time

FOR A CAREER CHANGE

 

WLW

I see that WLW Towers is getting a bit crumbly so I think it's time for a makeover.

Right, first we'll cover everthing in a horrid yellow and you pretend you like it. Next, we can cover that horrid 1,000-year-old fireplace with MDF and put teddy stencils on the walls... you can open your eyes now!

Kilted Englishman

I love it! Well OK, I don't, it's vile

BUT I DIDN'T LIKE TO SAY

 

WHY LONG HAIR IS BETTER THAN SHORT HAIR

  1. You can dye it.
  2. It looks more feminine.
  3. It gives a bored three-year-old cousin something to play with (just don't involve scissors).
  4. You can turn down a date because 'you're washing your hair'.

Yeah, right...

Vanilla

Oooh, did someone just use that excuse

ON YOU? DID I DETECT SARCASM?

 

SHORTLIST OF THINGS TO DO IN THE NORTH-WEST:

  1. Visit The Bug, P2 and Something Funky in Bury
  2. Go to the Trafford Centre and not buy anything other than a McD's
  3. Visit the Lowry and practice your GCSE graffiti skills
  4. Waste good money at Blackpool Pleasure Beach on the tea cups
  5. Apply for a job at Superdrug, Bury branch, with Schizo Number 3

Suddenly,

LONDON DON'T SEEM TOO BAD!

 

WLW

Do you ever go to conventions to meet your European counterparts? For the Teletext Christmas party (if there is one), do you go with the other trendies from Club and the guys from Planet Sound? Or do you just stay in and watch TV with Davord?

When 'Zine first started out, did trendies ever write in? Did 'Zine ever bear a resemblance to B*ckch*t? So many questions...

Queen of the Troubled Teens

Woah there — resemblance to B*ckch*t?

ARE YOU BONKERS? NO... NEVER!

 

COME TO THINK OF IT...

We can't work out whether WLW is male or female simply from reading his/her/its comments at the end of our messages.

I am male and I went onto a website on the net and did a "gender test", insisting it was somewhere in the region of 95% accurate. It decided that I was female.

Load of rubbish really, isn't it?

Frank The Potato

I agree. I did one of those tests —

TRIED TO TELL ME I WAS A SPANIEL!
