squeeeeeeeeee! or at least, that's how I was feeling last night some hours after sending this:
"Ello ello, just back from France (8 days of ordering "des frites" for my sister). Heard the gig in Blakes was good. Meanwhile the weather in France crap. Ah well, c'est la vie.
Have to get a job to fund "tree-hugging" trip to Canada. If I can afford it I might do a bit more travelling - Rome maybe or Egypt. . . New Zealand's a bit out of reach I think.
Off to Kerry tomorrow with Miss Cross for about a week so I doubt I'll see or be speaking to you before you jet off to the U.S. of A. So just wanted to say good luck and drop me a line whenever you've got a moment.
Buena suerte, Fi"
because, I received this:
"Hi Fi (tee hee!)
Blakes was mental - 4 bands, a million people, confined space - hot
hot hot, amps giving up but what a night! Opening band were shite but
funny in a strange way (funny how we made them carry stuff up anyway!)
Watch, Toaster and Fractured all rocked mightily - shame you missed
it.
Nearly screwed up the US trip - visa interview on Aug 9th, due to
arrive in the US on 24th July. You can see the problem! All good now -
emergency interview on the 19th.
Egypt CAF. Go if you can. Rest of the town seem to be working for BT -
mundane but it pays. There was a cleaning job at the school (might be
filled now). Not glamourous but you gotta take the longer view. Can
you get sponsored by some tree hugging group or get on to some sort of
programme? Let them pay for you. A friend of mine made a fortune
picking tobacco in Canada (a few years ago now). All you'd have to do
is get there.
Gotta go now. Enjoy Kerry (I always did!) and say hello to Eimar. Later dude

So yes, I am a loser but hey, if it makes you happy. . .
