Then Sondra took one long footstep with her super long legs and left the country to go back to her motherland of Auz and as if by magic Gina came along. Sian and Gina drank a lot of booze and had some delightful musical sessions. Then Jacky learnt the drums so we became a 3 piece. Jacky banged those things very well, and even let Sian have a go now and then. Collette then came into the equasion, then Gina left. Collette played bass instead of guitar, we were a 3 piece again. However, due to the fact that some crazy witch put a nasty spell on anyone who played bass in our band...Collette left. Jacky and Sian carried on White Stripes style for a while, then Gambler came to our rescue with some super hot bass lines and we were happy again. Then, the unthinkable happened and we actually played some gigs - woop for snoop. Things were well for a time, moving on up and the like, dreaming of stadium rock, private jets and getting a poor little blighter to take the blue m&m's out. However, the stars had other ideas: unfortunately aliens kidnapped Jacky and took her to Brizzle were they all go yarp, so we were drummerless and that was bad. A few false starts followed by thoughts of a drum machine and then Sarah came along just in time with her shiny red kit, retro clobber and all was sweet sweet again. A mention must go to Jude who filled in on bass when the gambling man had some bigger and better and much more successful things to do. Yet another drummer crisis followed, which was eventually soothed by a boy! Tom on drums, loaned from the band Elohymn, sounding very good. All is currently buzzing like a fly in the pocketknife camp......
