Big party at Haymarket tonight ... good times. 1300 people all vying for the chance to do karaoke. Me thinks I'd rather be with you and that's saying something! Not sure about the Saffas being unlucky ... what about the ABs being good!

Enjoy Slovenia - it's a fantastic country. Bovec in the north is great, Bled is loverly, and if you can get to the Hostel Celica Hotel in Ljubljana I highly highly recommend it. It's an old prison but done up by local artists. Well worth a visit.
