pallus sinfony

Ok, I suppose I have to mention it, the Pallus Sinfony website.
I kinda helped make it. Well that didn't involve much, Mezer just came over every odd day and told me to:
"put those songs online there will a?!"

So I did.

I just moved all his Posts from Dreambook to Blogger, allowing more control, greater freedom and ability to post comments! All this, plus moving with the times man, Blogging is the way to go!

sorry in a sense

Ok, I'm kinda sorry for posting that last post. Don't get me wrong that I was annoyed at those two jerks. I still am. Common!! Is that your life, that brief encounter with me, granted it wasn't that brief, has labeled you as a jerk, an asshole, a prick etc...
I am sorry for going on about it, if you did even read the whole post, well done... I wouldn't of... I could have edited it and fixed the grammar mistakes etc, but I'm not going to. That's life, too short to be looking back...

We must move forward,
not backward,
upward not forward,
and always twirling,
twirling,
twirling towards freedom.

just jerks

Some people are just jerks. Take these two fellos. Lets call them Jerk 1 and Jerk 2.

Jerk 1Jerk 2

I had the pleasure of sharing a flight from Basel in Switzerland to London Stansted today. It all started at checkin really. There were 3 easyJet checkin desks open, 1 to London on the left and 2 to somewhere else on the right. I was queuing with everyone else at the London desk and Jerk 1 comes up behind me and starts queuing in the other lane, even tho he knew it wasn't for London. He just hoped that they would eventually check him in. When he got to the front he realised they weren't going to check him in and he didn't like that at all!! He then tried to squeeze into our que again, but thankfully wasn't allowed.

Eventually the other desks opened up for London and he was first in the que, big smiles and all. He was soo happy he managed to jump the long que on the left and was first in line. I moved over and joined the other que (in the middle) where I met Jerk 2 on the far right line behind Jerk 1. He was doing the same as the other guy and was holding back until they opened the other desks for the London flight. I was next in line for the middle desk, and he was next in the one of the far right, but the people on the far right were taking their time, Jerk 2 decided that he wanted to go to the middle desk. Yup, he turned to me and muttered something in French and just pushed infront of me!!

Mind you, consider that I didn't have much problem with Jerk 1 since Check in, Jerk 2 was soo excited to get on the plane!! He was lining up before his numbers were called and everything. I got in the que to get on the plane just behind him, but passed him out walking across the tarmac as he wanted to go in the front where they had a que to lift people in wheelchair's onto the plane. So I had no problem going in the back door!

Really, there is no need to be in such a rush to check in and get on the plane! We will all get off at the same time, and all wait for our bags at the same time!! Its the Duuuuuddeee philosophy!!

I just happened to be standing between both of them while waiting for our bags. Mine was before both of them. I guess I had the last laugh!

This is a serious topic and I hope everyone takes time out of their busy lives to reflect on this subject.

mini reunion

Ok, its a very small one, but it was still a little reunion!!
Last night, we met Sandor in Ski Bar where we had a full 2004 Catering Reunion with Dan and Eliane and everything!! It was great to see him again!!


After that he followed us back to Des Alps where we had a smaller Summer 2003 reunion with Rachel. Its a pitty Max wasn't there, but he was probably up at the hutt eating ice-cream!

It was great to see them all again, and good to catch up with everyone!!

a leprechaun

I spent the night in Zurich catching up with Elisabeth! And this morning I saw a bit of the City. Nice place. The lake was lovely! Then I headed on my way towards to Kandersteg!

On my way I was met by no other than an Irish leprechaun!! Diarmuid is inter-railing across Europe at the moment and he was with a Yank called (DAMN IT.... Whats her name... begins with D) Anyway, they are going to stay a few days with me and see what it is that has me talking about Switzerland so much!

avoid this pub

So I was in the Corner House on Tuesday night (yes, its the pub on the corner of the road) with a few friends. We actually went in for about 20 minutes coz one of my friends had to make an appearance for her sisters Birthday.

I went up and ordered 3 pints of water from the bar, I asked the birthday girl if she wanted anything, but she had enough. I came back down and sat next to my other 2 friends and the 3 of us drank up and waited until we could leave again. We were sitting next to a big enough group of people all enjoying themselves, all there for the Birthday.

Next thing the manager, who only a minute ago served me the 3 pints of water, came over to us.

"Lads, you can't just sit here drinking tap water, this place isn't somewhere you go far a chat, if I was in your house I wouldn't do anything like this, there is no such thing as a free dinner"
To which we replied: "We are just here for a few minutes, we are with this Birthday party just over there next to us"
And he just said: "Drink up and get out."

He was very annoyed with us, and we were not happy with that, a tall a tall!! Once the Birthday girl found out, she wanted to get everyone to walk out. But we couldn't do that to her on her Birthday. We ended up not leaving at all! The manager having just left after giving out to us, the rest of the bar staff didn't mind us being there.

I won't be drinking in that pub again!
