The Lunatic's Guide To Hostelry

Things are going fairly well. I've made no grievous errors so far, and while there's still a fair bit to learn, I think I know what I'm doing.

Update the Third

As you know, the flat's sorted out, and as of tomorrow, I'll also be working... running the very hostel I've been staying in these past few weeks. Bizarre.

Today, we are all Laplanders

Well done to Lordi, who totally shook up the Eurovision Song Contest last night. You can't go wrong with a bat-winged lead singer and guitars that are on fire. They were, of course, only marginally less terrifying than Gina G.


Well done lads.

Update the Second (or, I forgot how big seagulls were)

Begorrah! 400th post!

It's been a while, hasn't it? Things have advanced somewhat. I've finally had a stroke of luck, and we have a flat to move into on the 1st of June. It's a nice place in a lovely area, and it's even got a bit of a sea view (if you tilt your head, and quint a bit...). Of course, this good karma is being repaid with a string of arsey rejection notices from each and every chuffing job I've applied for so far, but such is life.
