the official site is alive

THE place for your Sisters-related comments, questions and snippets of Sisters information. For those who do not know, The Sisters of Mercy are a rock'n'roll band. And a pop band. And an industrial groove machine. Or so they say. They make records. Lots of records, apparently. But not in your galaxy. They play concerts. Lots of concerts, actually. But you still cannot see them. So what's it all about, Alfie? This is one of the few tightly-moderated forums on Heartland, so please keep on-topic. All off-topic posts will either be moved or deleted. Chairman Bux is the editor and the editor's decision is final. Danke.

I see your point. Still, however Thatcherite Blair gets, Howard would be worse.

We in America find your political system strange: you still appear to have some kind of choice, or at least some people have an opinion. Also, you hold these strange things called debates, where sometimes, people ask real questions. And you still seem to believe that the state will give a ***k about the people.

Be careful...those American campaign people were working your elections are hired, er, guns.

And will it kill Von to get some UK dates this year?

Racial stereotyping - it's not big, it's not clever.

Still, we may not all be on the gear, but there's little doubt agriculture and
the fishing industry are on their knees, and the jute mills have all closed along with
many of the jam factories, ship yards and engineering works.

6 days in as many years - I could manage that!! :lol:

And if he needs a holiday after - he could always nip over to Leeds and maybe play to friends (read Heartlanders) and family for a bit of r and r :lol:
I never talk during music, at least during good music. If one hears bad music, it is one's duty to drown it in conversation.

"nothing" gets leaked because they know that there are limited channels of info. if something "gets out" there are likely only one or two potential sources, thus its easy to trace back.

and if von is a friend and has asked you not to leak stuff, then you're not going to are you? ;)
