What`s the last film you watched ?
I'll say this Mr and Mrs Smith is a film that carries some memories, will have to check those out then. I love that! I think it's actually very sexy, like a stupidly violent tango...with rocket launchers :D he-he didn't Brad and A…

What Are You Eating?
Figs, I still can't figure them out, dates are lovely though, I know what Carpathian means about being younger as a kid, both seemed to be absolutely horrible. Dates are actually a really good sugar substitute for baking with, not that I have …

What Are You Eating?
Where's your tea club, Carpy? That was awful popular. It'll be started again. Just trying to phrase new old threads in bit by bit!

I definitely recall Alison saying it, either between sings on that or in a radio interview....or, er, somewhere entirely different.

Chocolate figs. Yum. Figs and dates are things I'm very late too. Could never understand why folks like them when I was younger but now coming round to them little by little.

Television....
^ i just watched the first episode of 'the returned' tonight. very good, i'm intrigued for the next one! If you like the soundtrack (and anybody with ears should!) then it's by Mogwai and they've released it.

Tales of Us: font?
The problem is that many fonts have some letters spot on and others totally different due to the custom nature. So frustrating, as I think we've both found already! Take "AJ Hand": Ratate a few a bit and so close....but not close …

Tales of Us: font?
Would someone be kind enough to help me find a similar font? Pretty please. :D There were some similar-ish ones when I was searching. I'll go and get some names.....

Cornwall / Avondale (Halloween Jack)
Later in the year, when I'm firmly in my new job, I might take a long train down and partake of your place for a few days. Been meaning to for ages. Obviously, I'll yell out to arrange/book nearer the time but I really must do so at some …

Cheers Carp, for doing a proper description/instruction for PMs. Yes, it is like mobile messaging, and I'm happy with that. Oh, in addition to what you listed, a number appears next to "Inbox" which states how many unread messages you…

Right - sorted! Actually better than the old board and more like messaging on mobiles. To send/use private message conversations:- 1) Click on the person name you want to send one to. 2) Top left of their profile page click the "Send a Mess…

Cheers, yes, that showed up in my "Inbox". Bit surprised it didn't flag it via e-mail (I've turned all notifications on) or a pop-up message or summat.And on the PM (well, I assume no-one else can see it)... there is no "rep…

What`s the last film you watched ?
Re-watched Hunger Games for the first time since seeing it on cinema release. It's just as good now on blu-ray as it was then in the flicks ie very good indeed. Actually quite excited for the next film, once it turns up, and will probably hea…

I have an old limited edition Disney mug the size of a bucket (almost) with Tigger on dressed as Dracula. It's been used & washed so much he's looking very faded these days. It was a birthday gift from a best mate years ago and is alwa…

Latest Purchase....
Tomato & chilli chutney. It may not sound spectacular but it just perked up my feta & parsley omelette perfectly!

The things is that MIF will be completely different anyway due to the way everything is being scored for the orchestra. Alison mentioned that the LB & SH shows will be quite different than MIF due to being the more normal 'band version'…

Songs that would be fitting for Goldfrapp to cover/re-interpret?
The very first time I heard the latest Lower Dens album I hit "Nova Anthem" and immediately wanted a Goldfrapp cover. It has moments set up perfectly for Alison to use her MumbleVoice and some amazing parts dotted through where she could o…

I'd love to hear this too and every few years I remember it and go on a mad searching spree....to no avail. One day, BM, one day! {crosses fingers}

Enthusiasm is nothing to be ashamed of - it helps make the world go round.

Check Twitter for Alison updates
Nice catch, HJ - I was excited before and even more so now. The new website as it stands is pretty great anyway but we'll certainly not mind a bit more!

I'm just focussing on MIF - other gigs will come & go in the meantime and that's fine. (I'm telling myself this repeatedly - Grrrr)

PS4 / Xbox One
You've got it spot-on Carpy. The Xbox is now primarily a media center (no thanks, I've got a PVR) and the PS4 is just too expensive as a games console for me to play the one game I'm really hooked on (online Battlefield). Would have…
