Good Hello! As I have been a greedy internet piggy this month, I have run out of cap. What this means is that blogging will have to take place from public access areas. I don’t like public areas. They’re loud, they smell a bit weird and generally use recycled air. All in all it tends [...]

As some of the more regular readers and facebook stalkers may have spotted yesterday, my blog and I got featured in the Sunday Independent. For those that don’t that don’t know the paper:

This weekend, being a long one and all, seemed like a perfectly fine time to go and see exactly how much dairy and alcohol one system could take. It was time for CheeseFest. Having been there the year before, and knowing exactly what waited for me on the other side, I was about do dive [...]

I must say it was very impressive seeing such an amazing and large voter turnout this year. I conducted a little experiment on Twitter, to see if I could collect pictures of people and their thumbs, and this is the result:

I have cast my vote. Done and dusted. All in all the whole process was rather pain-free… Yes, there was a queue, but I had my iPod, and for some reason, listening to Rage Against the Machine seemed Right in the circumstances.
