 July 2007 Bad, Bad Symbolics

The naughty Symbolics boys went to T in the Park and had a whale of a time. Unfortunately for us, a couple of them lost their voices and couldn't record their single on Wednesday. Being the understanding label that we are, we gave each of them twelve lashings and rescheduled for next week.

It's a bit rubbish when you look at a website and none of the news has changed for ages. We'll try to add some tit-bits (a vastly underused expression) on a regularish basis.

We have a pretty website. It's shiny and new, so there may be a few teething problems - please bear with us. Tell all your friends, enemies, neighbours, pets, family and mysterious strangers to drop in sometime.
