Well, finally here and have an internet connection....
Saturday night ate extra hot buffalo wings and got drunk in an irish pub off times square, very touristy!
Sunday was more like the marv of old... Wandered around a few sights in the morning, including the empire state building, the chrysler building, the united nations place, st. patricks and took a ride to the top of the rockefeller building... awesome views of the city.... Then the good stuff happened... Met Dave and Eilidh for a light brunch at Pastis (very trendy apparently), then popped into McSorley's Old Ale House, established 1845... and proceeded to get smashed on the only 2 beers they make and sell, light or dark.... Made lots of friends including a yank from Buffalo called Todd and his girlfiend Lindsay (why do i sound so whiney?) who particularly liked the mary poppins singalong and couldnt pronounce "mat"... Then went out for dinner but by then it was all rather hazy and i had my first chunder in the us and a... marvellous!
Monday, toured around on buses most of the day, but did get over to Brooklyn...
And Ive just spent a few hours drinking with a hobo in a bar in Hells Kitchen called Rudy's that serves free hotdogs.
By the way we're in the middle of a heatwave over here, i have a nasty feeling im gonna have to attempt someclothes washing soon...
