i hear the roar of a badge machine

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.

the badge-making machine that printed all the salvation and sisterhood/m*****n badges, and also a good few of the sisters ones from the latter part of their pre-split line-up.

it smells of oil and metal, and has a most satisfying clank. its a proper "boy toy" and is probably where eldritch got the idea for lucretia from... ;) :lol:

Get away! Really?

Ubergeekiness there, QB. I notice none of the Heartlanderesses have strayed into what is clearly Nerd Territory :twisted:

How did your 'mate' get their grubby mits on this Engine of History? Or is that something for the Inner Circle?

Yes but unless it's full on the lips with tongues whilst forcing you backwards over the bar, it doesn't really count though, does it? :innocent:

Must be an arrogant 40-something, baldy, grumpy man kinda thang, I guess. :von:

Can 40-something baldy, grumpy men just acquire a kiss, when their prey is enticed with the prospect of loads of alcohol and duped to believe they're kissing an international Rockstar?

Quick back on-topic before the mods come: QB, I find your machine extraordinarily exciting. :P
