Allo peeps. Stavros ‘ere.

Ah memories of tv shows past…

Right, to business. Last night I met the NYC massive in the Pioneer bar on Bowery and it was a great night. I’d say a sobering experience, but in truth my head still hurts from all the beer. Dana, Chris, Melissa, Michael, Anna and Lisa were there as well as a few others whose names I didn’t catch. Melissa made a memorable entrance, stayed a while then headed north again from whence she came.

We all chatted, swapped stories and had a really good time. Did I feel like a fish out of water? hell no. I was made to feel really welcome. A couple of my friends came by as well, which was nice adding to the mix. The bar filled up in no time and had a really good vibe to it and at the end of the evening the non-smoking thing did make a real difference. A great evening.

So far we’ve done the shopping , ridden the m15/m06 buses (great ways to see New York) and shopped. Is it cheaper here? Yes, but you’ll need to buy in bulk to make good the savings. Today we’ll head for South Ferry and head out to Staten Island. When we get there we’ll turn right around and head back. After that we’ll head for DUMBO and finish off the evening with a walk back across the Brooklyn Bridge.

I hope to post a bit more, but we fly back tomorrow so maybe not. Next week I’ll be posting some pics. Till then take care.

Ciao.
