A large girl shimmies past
partly-clad in a Bunny-girl type waitress costume and
Andy gazes after her appreciatively. "She is
bountiful, truly a harvest of flesh. She needs to be reaped."
His agricultural 'r' is running amok. Discreetly he
reins back: "Hold on, I think the wine's
starting to talk here."

"The atmosphere of [Skylarking]
is one of a playfully sexual hot summer," says
Partridge. "On a hot day, a lot of life is going
to be made somewhere, and it's probably gonna to be
outdoors on grass. It's just about summer and being
out in the open and discovering sex in a stumbly,
teenage way."

"I've had some very
rewarding sex with skeletons...you try
keeping them quiet though. (Rhythmically bangs on the

"When I was a teenager, I
always wondered what it would be like to have sex
with a tub of Swarfega. I always imagined a lovely
slurp. As it turned out, it's about the only thing I
haven't attempted sex with. I suspect it might burn."

Colin: Oh, God,
Nigel isn't anybody in particular, it stems from I
used to go to school with quite a few Nigels and I
suppose that's where it stems from. I don't know, it's
just a name.
Andy: Oh, tell
the truth, it's a name for your penis.

"I was very frightened of
women when I was a teenager. I lost my virginity late,
with a girl who insisted on leaving the bedroom
curtains open. There was this bloke mowing the lawn
next door, and she kept saying, 'Keep your bum down
or he'll see and tell me dad.' Which wasn't ideal."
- Andy Partridge, 2000
