^wish you were here last night... fed up, and decided i needed a night out. went to local pub to celebrate you-know-what. the irish band they'd booked cancelled (obviously got a better offer elsewhere) so friends of friends quickly filled in, a well-seasoned bar band...these guys are amazing musicians, played everything one could think of - except anything remotely Celtic. Guinness WAS on tap, there were people in green and silly hats with KISS ME IM IRISH and these two old babes with flashing shamrock earrings. In addition to some old friends i hadn't seen in a while , my favourite gay boy showed up: then we got into some seerious dancing!!! - so there we were, jumping up and down; me with my glass of Guinness, he with a pink drink with a straw, screaming the lyrics to Bowie's Rebel Rebel, on March 17th. Excellent.
I love this town.
