More reasons to cancel your cable…

Sita got me a fiddle… Sorry neighbours… Happy Christma’s y’all

Saturday was a late night what with the short film competition screening at Amour Fou and all the following festivities for Carlos’s birthday. Then yesterday, after watching Atlas get thoroughly thrashed by Americas, we went to La Cava for a drink or two and some of us had botanas which included pig feet and marinated pork scratchings…

Kinky were playing in the Plaza de Liberación for free. They’re a first class band, well known throughout Latin America and, increasingly, Gringolandia. You might know them from such popular tunes as “más y más” and my personal fave, “Canibal“… They rocked. Then everyone came back to Casa Garibaldi for biscuits Mezcal, and M & D were back too from Chihuahua, which is their new favourite place in Mexico.

I’m going to be well busy this week with various projects, so either there’ll be scant posting cos I’m too tied up, or possible lots of it cos I’ll be sat at the computer all day… Tune in later to find out which…

All photos from yesterday’s Kinky antics here.

Have I mentioned I’m in the UK…? Off to Bristol this evening, so far no one’s said they’re going to be there. Hope it doesn’t rain too much as I trudge from door to door. Cadbury Arms around 7ish if anyone’s reading…

Cesar- Can’t find any curry powder, but I got some Madras sauce stuff. Should do the trick.
And just to show it doesn’t always rain…

They need to get this bloke: Things That Make Me Angry on Room 101 asap.

Travelling through Swansea Uni. Sitting at the same computers (literally) that we used to email when we were doing our TEFL course nigh on 6 years ago. Shall be popping by the Spanish Dept to see if any of me old (also literally) professors are hobbling around. Went to Rhossili and Port Eynon this morning and walked through SIngleton park where we saw the 95% eclipse way back when.
I’d been worried about my failing memory of late, but it’s just not being around familiar stuff i think. All kinds of memories are flooding back like during the first afternoon pint following an all-nighter. Might see some of you at Ashton Court festival this weekend… Am off to Swansea town center to see if it’s all Starbucks or retains its unique “charms”. Blinding Summer so far. We met a bunch of students at the pub (The Red Lion) in Llangyndir who’ve promised me 2 gig’s worth of Happy Hardcore MP3s on Friday night. Expect more “dancin’” to hixxy, hms, dreamscape, helter skelter, bonkers, ahh, fond memories… have a video of me round stu’s giving it some from the other week, probably won’t see the light of day though.
Cheersy y’all- and E’eeni’ pooooh (the cry of the Evening Post newseller in the city center, purveyer of black market goods, unless she’s doing time now…)
ABsobloodylutely grand time I’m (we’re?) having
and we may even have broadband when we get back to KSM. Huzzah!

when a Brit of Trivia happens at local bar, 99 bottles of beer, and lo and behold there’s a picture of us from a while ago. Have a look here. We’re half-way down, on the right. After Sita QEs on Wed, we’re going to spend the evening there and have a fiesta of sorts on Friday too. Anyroad, just finished a nice meal and may well head off to Blockbuster for more entertainment. righty, hasta pronto, gwyn
