Thinking about future weekend trips...


In London I...

Saw the best stand-up comedy show ever
Saw one of my favourite bands of all time 
Rubbed shoulders with Pink (yes, the singer) without realizing that was her (only at first!)
Had the best Indian food outside India
Almost got late to a flight because I wanted to go to my favourite t-shirt shop in Carnaby street
Unexpectedly met random friends from geneva in Piccadilly circus
Saw the highest number of drunk people on the tube
Walked on Baker street and poked around Sherlock Holmes’ house
Drank Pims at 6pm in a work function without realizing it was alcoholic
Ate fish and chips for dinner three nights in a row
Stayed in a really cool boutique hotel near Victoria Station (and hoped I would know how to replicate that decor in my house!)

Love the spirit

A proposito de um voo da ryanair, tinha esta frase num email sobre as limitações na bagagem: 

"Please note the following important information regarding cabin baggage:
• Strictly one item of cabin baggage is permitted per passenger (excluding infants) weighing up to 10kg with maximum dimensions of 55cm x 40cm x 20cm (your handbag, briefcase, laptop, shop purchases, camera etc. must be carried in your 1 permitted piece of cabin baggage)."

Ah ah ah 

infants as a baggage item or not! love the spirit!

What next?

Enquanto procurava (em vao) uma lata de atum - sempre assustador quando percebo que se acabou o atum - Descobri no meu armario de cozinha uma lata de leite condensado cujo prazo expirou em Maio de 2011!

Ainda ponderei abrir e provar... mas depois tive medo do cogumelo que ja la estivesse dentro... so I passed! Deixar estragar leite condensado não é de pessoa decente!

Shame on me!



Officially sun-kissed!

Even if only for 2 days

Things I only tried after 30...

Taking the boat out for dinner...

Jet skying

Being pulled by the boat while hanging to an inflatable device (aka: tube)

1 ano por todos....

Leio as noticias da licenciatura num ano... estamos na republica das bananas!  
Enfurece-me e envergonha-me pensar que o pais esta nas maos de pessoas "educadas" apenas nas jotas...

Chris Cornell @ Montreux jazz

Dear Chris,

I have waited many years for our first date, but had I known that i was meant to meet you in Montreux accompanied only by your guitars and a vynil record and I wouldn't mind the waiting so much!

Let's face it, it was even more perfect because it was just you, the guitars and the montreux jazz logo behind! I am not sure I would ever be ready for a fully pumped Soundgarden show and actually you seemed to be enjoying yourself much more as well. I am certain you are one of the favorite voices of my blonde brain cells and hearing you sing through the albums gave me an outstanding guided tour down memory lane...not just with temple of dog, but also with euphoria morning!

Plus you have the best cover ever of Billie Jean! Ever! So, sweetie.... no matter how many years go by... you rock! And you do it in really great style!
