Day 26
... and a feed. Mag introduced me to a web site called "lamebook" We sat there and laughed till we cried for a couple of hours, went thru a pack of tissues and a few pints of Guinness. Great fun. A guy playing guitar came on and we listenndd to him for an hour before heading off to the room.
