Today's Happenings... finish wrap of last weeks shoot. Hope that I dont get put on another job for a week or so, so can do things like create a blog.
Over the weekend, I experienced a couple of bumrushes.
Bumrush the 1st:

Jo'Burger - Dublin's best reasonably priced restaurant, and the sole contributer to 2007's Great Weight Gain, is in danger of shutting down. This is horribly uncool, as when it opened, I assured Conor, (he who has a degree in restaurants and hotelerating), that this restaurant was a sure fire winner for the following reasons:
It's the best burger i've had in any country any where at any time
It hit the nail on the head, mixing youf culture and good food, with great design and environmentally conscious menus
The owner was sound
It completely lacked any sort of pretensions, despite the fact that it was clearly the coolest place to eat in Dublin
It had things like this on the menu "Caramelised chili banana, bacon & goats cheese on a burger". Spooge.
Unfortunately, Jo'Burger has been hit by the global economic blah blah, and now is appealing to the high court for an injunction or something legal. It sounds like a I know what I'm talking about, but I dont. But read this:

Now, vote here to save the Bacon ... and beef... and incredible veggie burgers... and all the brie ... and...

Bumrush the 2nd:
On a less serious, but still annoying note, I realised late last night that this weekend was the 18th, not the 25th. This affects me in 2 ways.
1) White Wedding is NOT on this weekend, and I now have nothing to look forward to:

2) I am not getting paid this Friday, meaning that the nothing i had planned will turn into doing nothing. Rubbing pennies together will not create Ducktails Style pool of money to leap into.
Boring.
