Sh*tty Blog

This blog is pretty shitty at the moment I know. I'm casually working on an update that's not only much cooler, but should be much easier to read! It's not as revolutionary as I'd like it to be, but I can't be arsed to learn enough code to rewrite the whole thing the way I'd like to see it.

I can't even write this entry because it's the Manchester United vs. Liverpool match on at the moment and it's actually pretty good.

The crux of this post however is hold on, and keep the faith. This blog is going to be better soon!

Travel Journal

So here's the deal. Last time I came abroad I kept a pretty good travel journal. It turned out to be an amazing pain in my ass, so this time I've been more neglect. This has turned out to be a stupid choice as now I have no written record of my adventures. And to compound the problem I've been updating my blog about as often as I experience sunny days in Ireland.



SO...



For now I'm not going to chronicle anything. going to contribute a picture of me and my old shoes at Fiona's birthday party, and a link to a cool music video I found on my Uncle's you tube channel. The man in the video is NOT my uncle.

The picture...

Step back

So I'm apathetic and lethargic regarding this blog recently. I'm gonna try something different with it when I get internet back on a regular basis. 'Till then, watch this. It's very simple, yet very cool.

At last!

I've been wanting to make a sock monkey since Berlin, and today I did it! He's made out of a pair of toe socks which gives him both a cool head of hair and pretty awesome vice gripping hands.
That's his tail.

Disco Disco

This guy is big in Turkey. I'd have guessed him Bulgarian and so did my Turkish hosts in fact, but as it turns out, he's not! He does however play exactly the type of music that I'm into at the moment.

At long last

Well, ıt's been a whıle. It's been so long ın fact that I can't remember half of the thıngs I want to wrıte, and the thıngs that I can remember are so abundant ın number that ıf I trıed to transcrıbe them all I would have to neglect all else and probably dıe of starvatıon.

So. ınstead of all that I'll ınstead tell you that I mılked a cow ın Latovnık, Bulgarıa. It was later ın the same day that she'd gıven bırth. At about 8am at the neıghbourıng farm Aıden and Aıesha's cow gave bırth. We came by to see ıt after breakfast (about 9 am) and the baby was just tryıng to stand and was stıll covered wıth after bırth.

It mıght seem odd to mılk a cow the same day ıt's gıven bırth but worry not! We saved 2 teets for the baby and mılked the other 2 for us. We made pancakes (more crepes but apparently that's what the rest of the world calls pancakes. Who knew?) wıth the mılk and the colostrum gave them a great buttery flavour! The mılk was ın my belly about 10 mınutes after I'd taken ıt from the cow!

It was a good day!
