The Pandemonium - New Years Eve

[suityou01]

Is it a dogging site?

Sheesh. It was cold up there.

there were four or five cars parked, looking out over the town. One of them had his headlights on, so me night vision was screwed straight off.
Blundering through the bog, I eventually found the path and followed it by touch, with me feet.
10 minutes to go.
we crested the hill, so now I could see. zoomed the last 200m

then we could hear it. eerie. the singing tree. then the fireworks started popping down below
fingers froze in the wind taking a vid. We were the only two there

hot toddy for the missus, binos for me

then back through the bog, squelching , feet soaked. fingers burning with cold



it was, without doubt, the best new years eve I ever had

Ah Rivington Pike. That place is responsible for my ineluctable and ineffable conviction that all consciousnesses resonate at one in harmony with a sublime and eternal cosmic frequency.

Yep, used to pick mushrooms up there. Bit late in the season now. Don't remember any sculpture, but this was the eighties. Looks a bit 'cosmic' itself.

Working in Dublin Town right now, brought the family over and we're going to risk Cafe En Seine. (Cafe Insane to the locals). I think Rupert Myers probably nails it:

Think you're a fun sort of person? Life and soul of the party? Go on then, have fun. Have all the fun, because it's New Year's Eve and if you aren't literally having the most fun of your life, then what the heck are you doing, because as the very big clock is telling you, you'll be dead soon.

Happy 2014 all, think its going to be a warm one

Wasn't it one of HAB's favourites?

It was. Not sure if he was a BSG fan or if he just needed something that wasn't blocked by the filter, (which most of his language would be).

Um, I'm not sure you invented that one

when I was a kid we had this threat that sent shivers down yer spine -'I'll burst you'

seriously, that was the worst most blood curdling threat ever.
since then, we've had 'you'll get a leathering', 'I'll ave you over', 'I'll do you', 'ave some'



but now. I invent a new one

'I'll fckng Frakk you'
