releases in this section than normal. Don’t these so-called musicians realise that by sending us stuff which we feel obliged to review, to uphold the notion of ‘regional support’, a humdrum album of indie or nu-skool breaks or something gets squeezed out?
“04roundup
I also practised things like getting in and out of my sleeping bag with huge gloves on”
10upfront Never really understood why that Clinton quote about
the Hay Festival being “the Woodstock of the mind” is quoted in every single bit of publicity for Hay, including as a pull quote in our three-page preview. I just mean, an event featuring hundreds of thousands of people who were basically all on strong LSD could reasonably be described as “of the mind” in its own right
24film If you were born to be mild, enjoy a bunfight at the OK
movie screening, or exist on the edge of reasonable, then Keiron Self has a film reviews section for you this month, in which most things get three out of five
28food&drink Cardiff’s thriving vegetarian scene is illuminated for a
day this month, in the form of the Cardiff Vegetarian Festival. There’s also news of the best bakers in Wales’ thriving artisan bread scene, while Ruth tells you how to make biscotti, so you can partake in the thriving Italian biscuit scene
36previews Exposed forearms on these pages, most to least
muscular: Sasha Carassi, one of the Smoke Fairies, the lady from the promo pic for Ovid’s Metamorphoses, N-Type, the cat sketched for the Artawe Massive Draw, Alex Celler
50fashion+beauty At the time of writing these contents, Gareth the ed
keeps putting “IN SAFE HANDS” as the headline for the fashion pages, which features lingerie, worn by ladies. I don’t actually get it. Unless he’s thinking of the ‘hand bra’ as modelled by Janet Jackson on her eponymous 1993 album
54travel This month, Gareth the ed has been on a sustainable
weekend break in the very country in which this magazine is based, organised by a company whose name makes me titter. Although Gareth the ed didn’t seem to find it funny, suggesting his taste in innuendo is more abstract (see above)
56sport
“Coasteer? Isn’t that one of those things you put your beeer on?” That’s what you just said, confirming that you’re turning into your dad. However, it is in fact an activity involving jumping off rocks and that, and Dave Brayley has a crack at it this month
57listings
A banner month for fans of unfunny quips and lazy zings, as I haven’t been required to edit my listings down for space reasons for the first time in a while. ‘Enjoy’
78competitions
Lots of neato stuff including a £100 voucher for Leia, the lingerie people on the fashion page. That figure includes a professional bra fitting, meaning you’ll be in... safe... hands
