Isle of Wight Festival – booked – unbelievable line-up (Crowded House, The Strokes, Jay-Z, oh and Paul McCartney)

Hard Rock Calling – Hyde Park –  booked

V-Festival – Weston Park  - locked-in – thanks Jono – sold out! The BEST line-up of a festival I have ever seen!

Can I just say this is going to be an AWESOME summer… just to think that we’ve got Croatia locked in as well!

Fantastic time in Porto last weekend – really enjoyed ourselves. We were laughing on the way back as we hadn’t realised until getting on the internet at the airport before heading back to London that we were so lucky that the MASSIVE storm that hit France over the weekend just missed us in Portugal. No wonder it was really windy!

Tasted some beautiful port while we were there and the seafood is to die for. Would be an amazing destination in the summer – very recommended.

After I get over this cold I am determined to get out of Dodge for the weekend! It’s been such a cold January so bring on February! We’ve booked Bruges for May, but Marrakech for Easter should be great. I think the winter will be play-time with ‘Waiting for Godot‘ and ‘Warhorse‘ booked in – should be great.

Amsterdam Goodness

Well despite the rain Amsterdam turned it on. Supperclub was sensational last night!
Canals, museums, red light districts, bars… It’s got it all.
Great weekend – I could just do without the rain. Give it to people who really need it – like Aussies who actually live in Australia.

It’s getting colder but Chelsea is winning

Battersea this afternoon. A couple of glasses of red and I was a happy boy with the Blues beating Man U at the Bridge.

Touch wood everything is going OK. Looking forward to Christmas and New Year. All I can think about is a warm few weeks at the end of the year before submitting myself to the northern winter yet again.

Roll on Aus, Roll on!

Amsterdam Booked

It’s been a quiet weekend… not too much happening on the home front, planning the next holiday to the Netherlands though. Also counting down to the 10k race. I really want to build up to a marathon by the end of next year. Hockey starts in the UK towards the end of this month so I’m keen to get into it…

Apple – My Mac Thanks You

Ok so i dont usually blog about geeky stuff BUT i couldn’t resist to tell you that my old Macbook has just had a new lease on life (with no changes in hardware mind you) – it’s called Snow Leopard and it rocks.

Smoking startup and shutdown times compared to the previous version. Oh and it also increased the free disk space too. Oh did I mention it was only £25.

Put that in your pipe and smoke it Microsoft!

Out to a new venue (for me) in Islington. O2 Academy apparently is quite a good venue for live music. Tonight we’re off to see Sneaky Sound System who are playing at the V Festival this weekend too.

Should be fun

Arrived late to find The Presets on iTunes UK Store. I’ve been meaning to pick this up for a while.
Really enjoying Apocalypso after wearing out my MGMT album.
