So, does her boyfriend even know about you?

Indulge me, please folks, but I really do love the fact someone found this tiny wee corner of the interweb by typing 'Anna Bulbrook boyfriend' into a popular search engine. You made my day, whoever you are, and it sure makes a change from the peeps that type in 'What should I do before my first kiss?' and end up here. Oh, the sweet and bitter irony. Anyway, for the record: 1) I have no insights regarding Anna's relationship/domestic situation right now but I hope she is very happy whatever it might be, and, 2) I think the very best idea is to just make sure you are first kissing someone who really deserves it. And remember to keep breathing, that's quite important as well, obviously. And, for a first kiss, absolutely no tongues, ok? Some things just need to develop in the fullness of time, you know. That's one of them.

This strings-enhanced TV show performance of their cracking 'anthem for doomed romance' song is a splendid affair... the late-night drunken paranoia just speaks to you, no? Witness it here, and watch. You can also visit the band here and order their new album. It's just out. The photo of Anna was taken during soundcheck @ King Tuts, Glasgow (30-01-09). For a few more of the band, you can peek here.

  1. The new album is the best thing i've heard this year, if you don't have it Colin, do something good with your day off and go and get it, the shops will be empty as everybody will be watching something of no importance whatsoever.

  2. I wish I'd had someone with such wisdom to coach me before my first kiss... People often end up on timefortwee by googling 'perfect backswing'. Lot of disappointed (enlightened) tennis players out there now...

  3. Ah, Drew, I am working today - reading draft PhD chapters from several of my students. What is on the telly like? Am I missing some big circus or something? And, yes, I have the new album, and it's... ok. I need to listen to it a lot more though, to be fair.

    Er, I think our definitions of 'wisdom' might be slightly different Niki! I am sure your tennis followers will click and leave T4T (see what I did there?) much the wiser though.

  4. Floss. Remove gumshield. Ensure soundtrack is memorable. Floss again. That's my advice.

  5. Now that's wise, solid, professional advice right there. The soundtrack is essential. Good call, Melody. Or is it Lazer for short?

  7. Smiles are good, thanks Rachel! It's a really intense version, I love the section where Mikel nearly breaks down with '...you look like you've seen a ghost....'. That is power, just defined.
