Heya Helen :) was wondering where you've been lately. Nice to see ya. Ahhhh well the place nowwhere near bounced as Barrowland does - nothing can! lol All very civilised in Cheeseland. Would you believe it, I was in 2nd row and had space to swing a cat! That was brilliant mind. More later in a review.... btw photees tuned out crap :(
Yeah i've been trying to spend time away from the computer whilst i'm waiting to start my new job. Out in the big wide world soon! So been spending time on myself and completing three tasks i want done by the end of the year lol.
Wow that much room, i don't think i've ever had that at any gig! Must have been really good not to have someone spilling beer all over you during WDIAROM! Aww sorry to hear about the photos but at least you can tell us all about your memories of the night!

Oh cool so you're ready to take on the world !? what the 3 tasks then?;)
yep, no beer flying, almost too civilised lol. One or 2 pics are just about passable to stick in the tour archive... soon lol. Not taken any with the lads.. was too tired to bother but somebody took one of Neil, Eled and me (need to get my hands on this).Had a great chat with Fran and Andy though :) |

You are crazy, Sina, you know?
Anyway, you're right. In the Barcelona gig I was in the first/second row and I was like too much squeezed.
But two days ago I was in the first row and... There was space all around me! I couldn't believe that.
Still no news for the pics :P

Well, there's always something new to learn! I shall put it in my crazy phrase arsenal. Here's what I found:
This phrase may have something to do with the old 'sport" of swinging cats by their tails as targets for archers. The words aren"t nautical in origin, as is often said. The expression goes back at least to the mid-sixteen hundreds, and cat-o-nine-tails isn"t recorded until about 1670, which makes it unlikely that the phrase originated with some sea captain having no room to punish a rebellious sailor with a cat-o-nine-tails, or cat as it was called for short. |
