Illegal Attacks

Couldn't believe when I heard that Ian Brown got Sined O'Connor to collaborate with him on his new single. Its absolutely brilliant!! Almost up there with F.E.A.R He's such a genius and is genuinely political in his lyrics...about time somebody said something. Bored of to cool for school Londoners...come one just leave it to the Mancs...

Barcelona

This summer, getting pretty tired of constant rain, me and Andy decided to head to the lovely city of Barcelona. We’d borrowed a pad in the Poble Sec area, just east of the city centre, from Jess who is a good friend of ours through Rachel. It was situated on this little square, where the elderly locals sit on benches most part of the day amongst little tapas bars, very quaint. The flat was a two bedroom flat so we had lots of space and I loved having a kitchen as we planned to take advantage of nice local produce and prepare our own food. The little food market just of the Ramblas is a little gem and the first night we bought a whole kilo of prawns to take back to the flat. They tasted mighty fine with white wine and bread. Well we didn’t just eat, we also decided to do a bit of touristy stuff and on the first day we traveled around on the open top buses and saw most of the city – highlight that day was without a doubt the Segrada Familia. What an amazing building. We went to the top with a lift and then hiked down the narrow stairs, we absolutely loved it.
Next day we spent mainly on cable cars and experienced the city from above. We also spent some time in the Old town, so charming with its little narrow streets and little shops. For dinner we decided to have meat, yes proper meat, rib eye steak and its great cause in Spain it’s dead cheap and we loved it so much we had it again the next day.
On the Wednesday we headed up to Figueras by train to visit the Dali museum. Like people who have been know it’s hard to explain, an amazing place with its wacky artwork and surreal sculptures. Dali definitely had humor and sarcasm in his work, a very funny combination.
What did we do on the Thursday again? Oh yes we went up to Park Guell, created by the famous Gaudi, the same who was the mastermind behind Segrada Familia. Very futuristic architecture and quite unbelievable it was all built in the early 20th century, so different from anything else. We took a picnic and had a lovely afternoon reading and relaxing in the park. That night we went back to the market and picked up some langoustines, probably from Iceland, they were niceJ
On the Friday and Saturday we just chilled at the flat and around Poble Sec, found this great little Jazz Bar literally next door and had a few there, also had the nicest tapas in the little restaurant underneath the flat.

All in all a great holiday and even though I’d been before I’d go again…loved it!

Vid Andy erum buin ad festa kaup a eitt stykki hus:-)

Erum alveg i skyjunum og thetta var nokkud areynslulaust. I Englandi er sko ekki mikid mal ad fa husnaedislan enda hvergi eins mikil samkeppni i heiminum eins og her. Gott mal. Ja husid er svona ekta gamalt victorian style hus, byggt 1889 med thrju herbergi a efri haedinni asamt badherbergi og stofu, bordstofu og eldhusi a fyrstu haedinni og godum kjallara. Litill saetur gardur bakatil med sma palli, tilvalid fyrir grill i sumar.

Vonumst til ad geta flutt inn eftir ca. tvo manudi thannig ad nu verda bara allir ad skella ser i heimsokn.

Ja thetta er eiginlega eina og adal frettinn nema tha kannski fyrir tha sem thekkja Emmu systur Andy's tha a hun von a tviburum og eru thau einnig alveg i skyjunum

Hann Andy minn er nu alveg yndislegur. Eg var ekkert viss um mikilvaegi valentinusardagsins i hans huga, ju hann hafdi nu sent mer blom i fyrra en thar sem thetta getur verid frekar svona yfirbordskenndur dagur tha var eg svo sem ekkert ad spa mikid i thessu. Eg keypti tho voda saett kort asamt godri raudvinsflosku handa honum. En svo maetti mer i vinnunni thessi voda fini rosarvondur, i vasa og allt. Allt yndislegt med thad, nema thad ad eg var a hjoli thennan morgunin. Romantik getur verid god en ekki alltaf praktisk. Nu var ur vondu ad rada, hverning i oskopunum atti eg ad koma sjalfri mer heim, a hjoli og med thennan risa blomvond. Thetta vard adal umraeduefnid i vinnunni og ymis rad voru a bodstolnum. Svo vard ad eg fekk far, med vondinn milli fotanna og skyldi hjolraefilinn eftir i vinnunni.

Thegar heim var komid var Andy a fullu i eldamennskunni. A bodstolnum var horpudiskur i forrett, steikt upp ur saffron vinegerette med rocket salati og marinerudum tomotum. Milli retta var bodid upp a svokallad waterice sem er svipad og sorbet nema an eggjahvitunnar. Thrjar bragtegundir, raspberries, passion fruit og nectarines. Yndislega gott. Svo var komid ad adalretti kvoldsins, skotuselur vafin i parmaskinku med lettri kartoflumus og tomat og basil sosu. Aedislega gott og svo yndislega gaman ad eiga kaerasta sem finnst gaman ad elda.

Saetust i heimi!

Finally my little niece decided to arrive. She was born in Copenhagen last night and despite a long birth mother and daughter are fine. I am over the moon for them and can not wait to see the little princess.

Get eiginlega ekkert skrifad um lif mitt sem stendur thar sem eg bid bara og bid eftir litlu fraenku minni. Er svo spennt ad eg bara gleymi ollu odru. Stikla kannski bara a storu

Otrulegur thessi kall, var I hjolastol enda vantar a hann einn fot vegna afengissykingar…hann drekkur vist enn. En ljuffengir tonar hans foru vel med Iranska matnum sem vid gaeddum a adur.
- Litla fjolskyldan, eg, Andy, Paul og Tamsin forum svo i sma “road trip” a sunnudeginum, keyrdum upp til Formby sem er nordan vid Liverpool. Thar saumum vid raud ikorna sem eru nu vist i utrymingarhaettu. Pinkulitlir og saetir. Svo miklu betra ad gera eitthvad en ad hanga a sofanum.

2007

A New Year and we’ve been keeping ourselves busy. To mention a few...

- Celebrating Emma’s 30th birthday, both with their friends at the local pub as well as going to a luxury hotel and being totally spoiled for about £20 each, unbelievable.
- Saying goodbye to our friend and housemate Neil who’s now moved to Los Angeles. Always good to know people around the world.
- Almost bumping into Badly Drown Boy and Andy Rourke from the Smiths at Urbis just before they stepped on stage and preformed a few songs together – really good. This was part of a bigger event later on in the year to support a local cancer charity. Andy’s job definitely has its benefits.
- Meeting our good friend Will from our Master’s course down in his bar in Castlefield. He’s just bought us tickets to go and see John Martin – a one legged alcoholic but a really good musician. There you go!!
- Seeing Katie off as she’s off to Paris, again good to know people in different parts of the world.
- Finding out that the house we’re renting is going on sale and that we have to move again. Hmmm…what to do!!
- Waiting for me to become an aunt – my sister Kristin is due any day now and I am really excited and hope that all will go well. I will keep everyone informed.

Hope everyone is enjoying 2007 so far and I wish all my friends and family much happiness for the coming year.
