Good Bye, Leslie

There goes one of the best comedians ever.

Why couldn't have died the other one?

EYE! Me Bottle O' Scrumpy!

Hello there!

Today a friend of mine and a regular follower of Then 9th Circe of Hell (should I say the most regular?) is having some surgery. I'm talking about Christian.

He's visiting the operating room, but not for a sex change (sorry, I just had to make the joke). He told me that from now on, he's not needing glasses anymore. I don't really know very much about these kind of operations, so I can only say "good luck" and put some slightly related video I found on youtube.



Hope everything goes well!

Butterflies in the Stomach

When I see you, I feel... butterflies in the stomach.



Hello there! It's been a while, innit? This is the problem of Summertime: you have no time for blogging.

Anyway, I promised to devote a post to talk about butterflies. No, not those bright-colored-winged insects. The only interesting thing I know about those is that their tongue is called "proboscis".

I'm talking about butterfly knives, a.k.a. balisongs. Wikipedia says a balisong is "a folding pocket knife with two handles counter-rotating around the tang such that, when closed, the blade is concealed within grooves in the handles". This image may help understanding the description.

Las Chancletas de Hermes

Hello there!

I had been thinking about this for some time, but only now have I found the time to do it. I've just created another blog, this time in Spanish!

Its title is "Las Chancletas de Hermes" and the URL is www.laschancletasdehermes.blogspot.com.

Comeacrossness: MADRID EDITION (Day 5)





DAY FIVE

This was the last day of our adventure. Erik and I woke up early (but not too early)and had a quick brunch, so we could have time to visit the Caves. Their location is at the North-West of the town, and they are not far from my home, so we went on foot.

The accessing to the place has improved a lot in the last years. When I was a kid, you had to walk on the edge of a very dangerous road, but now there are sidewalks (pavements in BrE), signs showing the way to the place, and things like that: it is a true tourist enclave.

Comeacrossness: MADRID EDITION (Day 4)





DAY FOUR

Unlike the previous days, I had to be awaken on my last Madridean morning. It was almost midday when a loud knock on the door woke me up. It seems that I finally got used to sleeping in there.

After having a quick breakfast and making sure no-one left anything, we bid farewell to Habbit's home and rushed for the train station. On the way, Habbit's mother phoned him, saying that she was arriving back from the town. We were so freaking lucky! If we had left off just some minutes later, we would have been discovered.
