straitjacket fits

January 2006 - Updateyness (yes, I know you're all shocked) Thanks to everyone whose emails I never replied to last year (BTW, I don't know where to find a Fits tshirt, sorry) Minor link updates, a few live reunion reviews and a v.sketchy Cabbage Bomber page.

New audio - em pee three of Carter/Jefferies - Hooked Lined & Sunken

Here's a lovely reunited Fits photo, and a not-so-lovely vision from Chris Knox.
