2005-10-18 : What I did on my summer vacation.
3rd time's the charm. This was definitely my best trip to Dublin yet ! Partially through going to a series of cool places and doing cool stuff, but mainly due to spending time with the amazing Morgs & Kris! Also,
2005-10-18 : It’s true – there *is* a curse !
(Incidentally, this probably isn't going to mean much to my Australian readership, but I'll press on regardless) Ever since leaving Australia recently I've been feeling a trifle uneasy. Walking/bussing around London would occasionally see me feel a cold shiver down
2005-10-16 : Ah go an. Go an go an go an, etc.
G'day from Dublin! Am just off to The Clarence (U2's pub) for Kris's birthday. Went to the Guinness Storehouse today, then the Jameson distillery. And OH BOY… did we hear some BAD jokes. Kinda comforting – gives me something to
2005-10-15 : Zee plane! Zee plane!

2005-10-13 : Grr, slacking off again…
Been too busy getting back into the swing of things here to finish writing. Having a few complications with my already errant body clock trying to work out which time zone it's in. Birthday drinks for Emzo the other night
2005-10-10 : Hours of travelling fun.
Back in London. Eyeballs bleeding, stuffy nose, etc. = all good 14 hour flight symptoms. Just ran into the Philips Clan at Heathrow – weird. The first time I've ever seen anyone I knew at Heathrow, and it was people
2005-10-09 : Back to Changi redux, redux. (quack)
Finally, I managed to sleep on a plane ! And typically, the movies they had were ones that I actually wanted to see (read: would have been perfectly happy to see for free). Oh well, that wasn't meant to be.
