Uhhh, blogging from work, i feel so naughty. Just a short one i suppose, since it seems that i am doing more posts that the entirety of our little community put together. I arrived safe and sound from Barcelona, albeit very tired. Sat next to a random person on the way back home that turned out to be the daughter of one Claudia Beckett, one of the slushs from Clonlara parts, tis a small world.

I dont see myself doing much posting from work in the near future though, i have gotten a job in the Summer Camp so that should be a laugh, conal and Elaine are doing it and one of the guys in works girlfriend's is too so it should be a laugh, i suppose i should mention that Joan is working as well.

ammm, i wish people would blog a wee bit more, just so i can have something to do while in work, our newest recruits Pa and Steve are being uncharacteristically silent. Bebo is good, but not good enough, although Amanda has promised to put up pictures of her and her Maouri boyfriend Benji on her bebo site, they should be fun.

Drugs are bad *Kay

Alright so perhaps a more cheery post is in order. Went to the first full day of Sonar yesterday, that do the the music festival i am here in Barcelona for. Queue was pretty big but we had left it late to go in, around 3. As we were queuing though we heard the Scissor sisters playing on the main stage, we got to listen to their last 4 songs but only got to see Filthy/Gorgeous, they were not actually schedualed to play at all so that was a surprise. They are so lax dusing the day with what youcan bring in. They only sell expensive Bud in there so we just brought in two or three 40cc bottles of San Miguel and proceeded to get a little tipsy while sitting out onthe grass, twas well calss. We stayed there till around 9 then headed bac to apartment to get fed and changed before we got the bus out to the night venue, this mahoosive convention centre areound 25 minutes outside the city. They were much stricer with the alcohol thing out there so we had to sit outside and drink our beer there, that was actually pretty class as there were tons of people out there, we gave some M&Ms to these dutch people so they gave us some orange mixer, which we shared with some swedes if they shared their vodka. We had tons of beer left over that we just did not want to we just gave around 8 of them to some other randomers besides us.

INside was class, went to see Nightmares on Wax, DJ Shadow, and Jeff Myles i think, we were just wonderingaround for a good while as welll as there is three or four diferent halls. There was one in particular that myself and Kay went crazy in, i dont know who it was but it was just filthy electro shit with class a brilliant light show, poor anna wore new shoes to the thing and ripped us all her ankles so by the end of the night there was no junpy jumpy for her. This was at about five in the morning so i had well flushed out all the alcohol from my body, well i think so anyway. We got hopme a while after six and for some reason i got up an hour ago to goon the internet for some reason so perhaps i am a bit drunk still. Just going for breakfast now and hopefully we will be at the day venue before 2. I am just going to pack all my stuff as i think that i will be conming straight form Sonar night to pick upmy gear from the hostel then going straight to thwe airport. If anyone is around tomorrow morning and wants t pick me up from Shannon around 1 just text me and iwill see what i can do.

I do so love my mother's one-line text messages. Ijust found out this morning that one of my neighbours died, she lived across the road from me but i would always stop to chat if i met her. I have no idea what happened her,she could not have been over 60 and i was talking to her only last friday but i just get a text this morning "Christine Lynche died" which has made me a lot more upset than i thought it would. There are a lot of people living in the estate she came from that i truely would not give the slightest damn if they dropped down dead tomorrow, a majority in fact, but she was certainly not one of them and i really wish it was one of them instead of her.

So i just saw that this will be my 100th post, pity it is being written on a shit keyboard so will be oft times illegible. I do be in sunny Barcelona at the minute. Arrived on Monday evening after getting the fright of my life the night before since i thought we were not leaving til Tuesday afternoon, luckily all wnt well and we arrived safe and sound. The hostel is very nice, its clean, relatively cheap and you get nice beds and a locker. It is just overlooking one of the streets on the Gothic Sewctor and since we are on the third floor we can look directly into the Church just across the street, only around 20 foot away. Pity the bells start at 7 in the morning then every half hour, god damn Catholics.I will put up pictures when i get back.
Spent the last two days doing tourist things, went up some crazy Gaudi cathedral yesterday then went to a park designed by him, we got a tiny bit lost once or twice and must have walked at least 8-10 miles yesterday, not including the hundreds of steps in the god-damn cathedral. Today we went to Salvador Dali´s home town and went to his museum, lots oif funky shit there. Tomorrow ius the beach and aquarium and then tomorrow evening maybe to the SonarPub. I am completely disorganised and we do not have a map or programme for this festival at all, i am hoping everything will just work out in the end, whats the worst that can happen.
I will try and post at least once more before i go home and might actually be able to give a description of this famous dance festival that i paid so much money to go see.
Adios (thats actually spanish for good-bye....i think)
