Alec: I'm sure she would if she gave it a chance (that cornet solo!). But I imagine the name stems more from desires to meet tall, dark strangers and so forth. (Plus her dam was Crystal Princess.)

My mother-in-law and her sisters own Crystal Gazing. It's a good way to make a small fortune: start with a large fortune and buy a racehorse. I believe it's one of them tax avoidance schemes; me and the Hitler Woman (anag) do not see eye-to-eye politically.

Braless and slightly slack...

Ninety minutes very well spent. Obviously it concentrates on the BeBop era as it's promoting the new deluxe Cherry Red issue of Futurama. Be nice if some old fans might be reintroduced into the fold on the back of this. I heard the Tim Bowness interview last week, which mentions Bill in passing as one who continues to plough his own furrow. (Tim is of course Bill's new boss. Or at least co-founder of Burning Shed - kind of the same thing?) There is an awful lot more to discover on Strange Fruit. Clem Cattini next?

Talk Talk released a singles collection called 'Asides Besides'. Near enough?

Do'h?
