Pucked up or: Let’s go Pucking mental!!!

To stave off the horror at being at home while my better thirds, Lids and Dee, enjoy their holiday road-tripping in the north of the USA, and hanging out with Dee’s mate Kate in Vancouver, I decided that this year Tongie and I would do what we promised each other 3 years ago, and that […]

Corked out

Man, did I ever miss traveling. I hadn’t realised cos I’ve been in Dublin so much lately, but it was freaking sweet. It revved up that traveling bug so much so that I had to escape to Cork with some mates for the long weekend. Was actually a brilliant time. My friend Tania from Couch […]

Nicky and Boris get married & other stories (part 2 of foreign adventures)

So there I was sleeping in an empty hotel, awaiting my sister’s arrival.

Wedding of Sarah & Alan

I got some photos today, so I feel I can now proceed with the exposition of one of my best friend’s marriage that took place on 29th June 2007. In the finest tradition of Last minute Tee, I got a dress, shoes, and bag at the very last possible moment on Thursday evening. Then woke […]
