Tuesday 27th July 2010 - Today i can see Algeria, look there it is over there (pointing south), it looks very mountainy, I had a busy day today, i sat in the crows nest for 3 hours (its a coffee shop/bar above the bridge) and then i sat in the sun for a while, then I did my 45 minute show and after that I was free again to chill out. All this relaxing is wearing me out now.
