Don’t know how we ended up here. Weird thing is that Sue doesn’t remember either. Last thing we have any sort of clarity on is downing pints of Guinness + blackcurrant with vodka chasers in the Lamb & Flag on Ramsgate quay; then Sue driving our wheels up a ramp onto a random ferry (seemed a good idea at the time) and when we came round - with massive hangovers - we were in Stockholm! Bit surprising. But we decided to go with the adventure. Neither of us had done Sweden before. On the upside, there was a wide choice if you’re into tall blond men but Sue pointed out that men were off the menu for a while. So how come she was the one who hooked up with this guy Per later on? He kept trying to hug us and drag us along to a party. I’m not big on physical contact unless it’s sex but Sue’s more – er – adaptable. Anyway, we ended up having a great time and we definitely want to stay in contact with Per! But I told Sue straight, “You can’t always rely on your intuition, girl.” What’s she like!!

Cut Loose

You can listen here.

The Adventure of Sue and Mo


My daddy didn't love me the way that he should so I ended up finding it wherever I could
There've been a lot of men -- not always mine
I've never been too good at drawing the line
But I've slowed down, I want someone to care
I'm looking around and there's nobody there
I'm gonna break free, let my spirit unfurl
For an adventure like that, I need another girl

My momma didn't love me as much as she should so I ended up being a girl who's no good
I do what I want and I take what I can
I've loved and left at least 1,000 men
But something is wrong, something's not right
I need something different to make me right
I need to break free, let my spirit unfurl
For an adventure like that, I need another girl

Pack up, cut loose
Get rid of the map and step up the juice
We've got an open top car and jeans that are tight
We're gonna sing at the moon and drive through the night

Wandering around with angry eyes, when I saw Sue I recognized
Had to let go of the past, the broken hearts
Tear down the town and have a new start

I said, "Honey, let's break the rules, let's show those boys that they're just fools"
In it together we can set each other free
'Cuz I was like her and she was like me

Pack up, cut loose
Get rid of the map and step up the juice
We've got an open top car and jeans that are tight
We're gonna sing at the moon and drive through the night
