Holiday!

[shadowkitty]

Are ye getting wet, Brits? It´s awful hot here. I, unfortunately go right through sun intolerence & out the other side to vampirism, so I´m a bit red. Just a bit. I did figure out that if you actually put on sun tan lotion without missing any bits you can avoid this. Amazing, that! Only took me twenty four years to figure out! The downside is I have bright red ankles. My fucking ankles, of all places.

Other things I discovered; there are more Irish people than Brits here. There are six Irish pubs (& they´re proper Irish, not fake) on one teeny little road. Also, I found out that two people can retake a Moorish citadel armed only with a small slingshot & half a cobble, but that the locals won´t be very happy if you try. Oh, & Lisbon is very pretty.

How are ye? Am I missing anything good?

Oy, get off LJ and back on holiday.

In answer to your question nope you are not missing anything other than pouring rain and Gordon Brown becomes Prime Minister today.

Hello. Not wet. Have been playing with archaeologists. I've probably been to Lisbon, but I would have been ten at the time (and watching dosk with piri-piri chicken was much more amusing. If you haven't worked it out piri-piri is HOT). Was wondering how you cross bless yourself. Put more sunscreen on, girl! Lots of it! And re-apply! Mummyfrog has a story about how she burned her feet riding on a moped in Crete with dad sometime BC (before children); so we've always got slathered in the stuff. Irish pubs? I hate to think. (I'm not big on ex-pats who import baked beans, I want to eat lots of greek food when I'm on holiday).
