Soggy Apple

This week I have mostly been in New York again, not quite as snowy as last time, but there was still plenty of stuff falling from the sky and I left with soggy feet again. New York is a cool place with possibly more intelligence in one small land mass than the whole of the rest of the US. But I have to say I was surprised to see a full page add in the NY Times warning us of what could happen if Iran had nuclear weapons. Particularly insensitive considering it was sponsored by the American Jewish Committee..... and the US can't understand why the rest of the world hates them.
But perhaps the most interesting thing I learned from this is if Iran did let off a bomb then the only parts of the once Great Britain to survive would be Ireland, Scotland, Wales, Cornwall and the Midlands. I would quite like to see that.


Yet again I was forced to also visit that shithole in Jersey called Warren. Surprisingly there are at least 3 good places to eat there including an Afghani restaurant. I have to say was the last cuisine I expected to encounter in the septic backwater named after the firstborn of Jersey's founding fathers, but there it was and tasty too. It was also particularly surprising following on from the Xenophobic New York Times advertising campaign against the Middle East.
But I couldn't wait to get back to the city for another session of Yaegermeister and Red Bull bombs with my hosts Dragan and Mike. Stupid drinking that it is, the lethal combo does the job and I would reccommend it to anyone who wants to do some serious damage to themselves.
