Hi there,

Just saw the new album (import) in downtown Toronto at HMV for $40. I thought NO was disbanded years ago(?) so I haven't checked for new stuff in ages. Lucky the import was on display right at the door.

So how long ago was this album announced?

Thanks.

They started work on this album around the same time Thomas Eddison was working on his first electric trainer boot. Barney laid out some vocals in the 60's and Hooky put his unique nasal whistles later during his tour of Vietnam. When Steve and Gillian gave birth to their 4th badger they all got back together in the city of doom to polish the album, with numerous armed carrots shouting obsenities through the baron landscapes surrounding the field.

Initially they were set to release it with a special set of stamps but they couldn't get a good picture of Tony Wilson's pet badger Nigel Bushfield. Anyway, through some encouraging reviews in Scooter weekly a fat bloke came on board and gave them some money to run a few CD copies off. That's probably what you've come across.

If you wait until Decmeber 29th 2046 they have promised a better version with more flute playing that wiill go back in time with every play. They said, and I don't know if this is true, that CD's won't be around then so they're waiting for Gillian to invent a new format in her spare time with old bits of wood and modelling glue.

Do you like crisps? - which flavour? - in Australia do you call crisps crisps or are they called chips?

Old Fan, if we cut you in half could we count the rings to see how old you are?

Hey Huntsman,

I like your take on the new album. ;)

In most parts of Canada (including Toronto, Vancouver, Regina, Winnipeg, etc.) crisps are called "chips". In most parts of Quebec, crisps are called "croustilles". But I have no idea what they are called in Australia.

Remember: Canada, close to the U.S.; uses Celcius; far from Australia!

C'est purement théorique ça Robert! Tout le monde appelle ça des CHIPS ici !!!!!! (Au fait, je ne savais pas que tu parlais français!).

English version:

That's purely theorical, that, Robert! Even though "Croustilles" is the french translation, everybody's still calling them CHIPS! (by the way, I didn'T know you could speak french!).

Seb. (still alive)
