#9258 "Mon retour au Pays..."

Après une journée de travail au Studio somme toute assez rapide et pas perturbante outre mesure, avec notamment un Bastou amusé de raconter son anecdote du Karaoké hier soir... Direction l'aerport de Francfort Hahn, presque 2 heures à l'Est du Luxembourg d'où je part directement pour aller retrouver mon Pays d'adoption... After a working day at the studio, kinda quick and without that much work actually (all the deciders on the US sides are gone...), with a Bastou still laughing about the "Karaoke" incident from Yesterday... And I'm then leaving for Frankfurt Hahn, an airport 2 hours away, East of Luxembourg, to go to my adoptive country for the week end... It's actually a really really small airport in Germany.. God I hate Ryanair... as usual u might say... And there was even some Plush of the White Bear that just came to Life at the Berlin's Zoo, and dat is something like a superstar now... :| I had (of course) my Ipod with me, but it was the headphones that I forgot.. ouch.. hours without music.. wha should I do?? But fortunately I was able to buy some in the only shop of the Airport.. Unfortunately it was probably the worse ever.. big, doubtful sound coming in... Grrrrrr We're flying on Ryanair (Hate this company bis)... From a plane that is coming from Dublin, leaving people in Hahn, taking some there, and going back to Dublin.. maximising at the most the planes... ewww.... A lil less than 2 hours of Flight, and here I am back In Dublin for a big week end... :) Dublin Airport is as good as usual, Ryanair is a bad as usual, 20 minutes walk to come back to the big terminal.. awful.. On board there was the Irish female Basketball team... lol :) Just the time to get out of all the crowd.. and realise Shelly was actually late to come pick me up... So just a pick up & Go and going to the Headline, the bar accross the old flat... And on the road, saw good things :) A band is playing a lil' gig, really nice, and here we are with Shelly, Alan, & Stuart, that is here also for only a few hours... But it's still nice to be with almost everyone once again... :) Then, we're doing the closing of the pub... eventhough I came kinda late, and so we didn't had much time available here.... but well.. was just the beginning of the nite... Decided to go to a club, in order to move a lil bit and have as much time together as possible... And, also as usual, we're staying until the end of the club... A few hours later, dancing on the hits of the year, but with typical Irish things as "Jump Around" by House of Pain, The Fallout Boys, but also "Bloody Sunday" By U2... And it's always a strange feeling, nowing the History of the country, that whole of the youth here are singing as loud as they can this hymn... Even I, foreigner, for a moment, is proud to be here, almost Irish, united by a song reminding everyone something strong and powerful... And we, in the end, had good craig this nite, always so cool to hang out all together... Gosh I almost miss moments like that now... We finally get out after havin' taken back our coats... And bc all the clubs are closing at the same time, Dublin for an hour or so looks like a ruined city.. everyone hanging, singing, looking for a cab.. but we know how to handle the way back.. by foot... Then, because tradition is worth staying one... Stopping at Rico's.. Buying something to eat :) Yummy :) Rico's is probably not the best take away places in Dublin, but it's stil a really good one, open really late, afordable, and.. Tradition.. Since the Superbowl 2 years ago, that was on a pub nearby... Sun is coming up.. time to go to bed... And hope 2Morrow will be as good as tonite... ---------------- Now playing: Craig Armstrong Featuring Paul Buchanan - Let's Go Out Tonight (Featuring Paul Buchanan)
