While walking on the east pier with Aileen the other day we came across some 3-dimensional art that was left over from the recent festival of world cultures. Here are a couple of pics of us messing around with it.

Howdy all! Thanks so much to the people who came to the party, especially all those who gave us some kitchen towel Hats off to Ian who supplied us with some great tunes and entertainment too! Great news was that it wasnt actually too hard to clean up the next day incase you were worrying about me and the lads :p

Wig went around for a bit with my camera, so when I get some time I’ll put something together and I’ll post it.

Here’s a little video Clem took during the strobe rave You can hear Grum begging in the background for “One More Time” along with some random screaming!

I’ve noticed over the past few days that there’s a bunch of photo’s floating around FaceBook from the party. I put a bunch of them in the photos section so check them out!

My good friend Aiden showed me a very cool tool for face augmentation and transformation! Check it out at this site. So earlier this morning I whipped out my camera phone in the office and snapped a pic of me, uploaded it and started playing around! Here’s what I came up with!

Saturday was one of those days that any radiohead fan would have had trouble sleeping the night before. I can’t include myself in that list, primarily due to a healthy concoction of pints baby guiness’ (guini?) and silver bullets (Thanks Paddy!) the night before, and so it was with a heavy lids and even heavier head that i was roused by a scorching sun blasting though my so-called curtains.

So as we all know now, it was the perfect day for an outdoor gig! In our case, a fairly complex plan of action was called for to ensure that all guilty parties were assembled in or around the right time and place for some pre-gig fun. There was a theoretical group of 8 of us who were to head up to a mate Roisin’s not-so humble abode in Malahide for a BBQ and drinks. Kudos goes out to Roisin at this point, who very graciously permitted myself and Dan to show up with 6 of our smelly friends without so much as asking what area code they resided in or whether they would be bringing anything to the table other than their hungry, thirsty selves.

Eventually a troupe consisting of myself, Dan, Wigs, Clem and Amel was assembled and we piled onto a dart at about 1pm. Along the way we picked up Fi and Ignazio-a friend of mine from work. Mike, the supposed 8th member of the group was, as usual, not to be heard from. I still amaze myself that I find this surprising even after 6 or 7 years…

WOW! I own a copy of GTA IV! Fansastic! Its a pity I’m stuck in work for the next 8 hours with the game staring me in the face! I usually find it extremely difficult getting out of bed in the morning! But this morning was a completely different story! Jumped straight out of bed and legged it down to Gamestop in Dun Laoghaire in a matter of seconds! Got down there at around 07:50 and there was about 15 people in the queue outside the shop ahead of me, then at 8am they opened the doors to us and we walked in in an orderly fashion. One lad behind me in the queue didn’t have a copy pre-ordered and I overheard the shop guy telling them politely to go away!

So goodbye world. I’ll be working during the day and playing GTA IV during the night! If you need to contact me, buy an Xbox 360, a copy of GTA IV and you’ll find me online!

I’ve managed to locate some party pics. The ones below are thanks to Zoe. But I know there are more out there. Come on people! Cough ‘em up!

Wow! Thanks to everyone for coming to our good friday party It was the biggest yet and it was so much fun! There was a really good vibe and everyone seemed to enjoy themselves! My favourite moments were; the giant creme egg, the chocolate fountain misshap, shaking hands with Niall Carol for about 10 minutes and last but by no means least the wave of people bouncing up and down to Micheal Jackson in the sitting room!

Ohh and a guy fell asleep on the stairs with a cardboard box on his lap with his head resting on it! Most origional sleeping position EVER! All in all we all hope you enjoyed the night! It felt a bit like an Andrews reunion too which was great as I havent seem some of the people who came for ages!

The gaff was in a right state the next day! The floor was manky, there was shitloads of cans and bottles everywhere and Wig’s rug turned an ever deeper darker shade of brown!

Major thanks to everyone who helped clean! Especially Paddy and Damo! Damo got some shots of what the place looked like the next day and during Operation Cleanup! Check them out!

Here’s a video of my just out of bed walking downstairs and generally accepting the state of the place…
