Also, I'd like to say I owned a cute monster t-shirt, but sadly I'll never be that fashionable.<BR/><BR/>Sylvia: Have fun with the excavations, but remember, if you find a La Tene sword lying on top of the lego Aqua Raiders, it's a flagrant breach of the law of superposition, and as such is unlikely to be a genuine find.patroclushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01933476561340044351noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3607123.post-24169680665768560752007-06-01T17:35:00.001+01:002007-06-01T17:35:00.001+01:00Hope you have a great time!I have to excavate a ch...Hope you have a great time!<BR/>I have to excavate a child's bedroom tomorrow, as well as attend my fat cows on the common session at 9am.Sylviahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12928164168526819245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3607123.post-72717295474660615212007-06-01T17:35:00.000+01:002007-06-01T17:35:00.000+01:00Envious!

I don't know for definite if he's even going to be there, let alone what he's going to be doing if he is. I don't even technically like Sufjan, as he's a bit too fey and whimsical for my tastes. <BR/><BR/>Still, you don't see too many fey, whimsical US indie starlets playing banjo in London on a Saturday afternoon, so I'm quite excited about it, all the same.<BR/><BR/>Come and say hi if you do go along - I'm the tiny, scruffy blonde one, and the lovely Mr BC is the tall, dark one with the Keira Knightley - ahem, I mean *fabulous* - haircut.patroclushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01933476561340044351noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3607123.post-48673237310503071872007-06-01T16:57:00.000+01:002007-06-01T16:57:00.000+01:00We are going to be in London this weekend so this ...We are going to be in London this weekend so this sounds quite tempting.<BR/><BR/>Have you heard if he's going to be doing any more than playing banjo for St Vincent?
