I can't transcribe the high pitched noise of excitement that I'm involuntarily making right now, but "!" sums up my feelings best.

"Sea Sew" has just been nominated for a Mercury Music Prize.

I really can't believe it. For myself, the lads in the band, Una, Nurse Ben, all of the people who worked so hard to put this record out and be heard, it's an incredible honour and unbelievable gift.

As I way saying... "!"

Now, to the bar, I'll explain on the way!

The Colbert Report

Hello there,

Yesterday was up there with getting the petite 990 as one of my favourite days.

Stephen Colbert is my hero.

I am, literally, wearing the t-shirt.

And the hat.

Here are links to the episode..

He saw our "I Don't Know" in the pub and asked if we were about. I don't know what to say I'm so chuffed.

I will be wearing my hat for the remainder of the tour, possibly removing it for showers.

(although it's more likely that it will be removed from my cold dead head, as if I were in the NRA and it was my "Sweetness")

Thank You!

Thank you to everybody that voted in the Hot Press Readers' Poll... what a brilliant way to wake up on a Wednesday morning. And although I don't really know what Love of the Year means... I'm hoping that Hot Press will organise that myself and Barack Obama go on the Ferris wheel in the Electric Picnic this year in celebration.

Thanks again, I feel very honoured,
