Senor Singez & Senor Deep `Balle` Shanchez


Buenos Aires, Argentina : 7 days, copious amounts of red meat, an unexplainable abundance of underwear retail outlets and of course a generous lashing of alcohol has left us somewhat exhausted.

How often does this happen? You walk out of swanky a restaurant, if you are in town, Casa Cruz, is the place to eat and to be seen, but I digress from a story of incredible improbability. Flirting briefly with the plethora of charming argentinian women outside, a random guy hears that we are en route to Crobar. He with his wife, offers a lift. Remarkable. We make small talk in the car and he gives me his card, and tells me to ask for nextman at the club door. For those of you who know what a pain in the ass Crobar in NYC is, the following will seem miraculous! We roll right up to the door past the heaving line drop the name, in no less than 2 minutes we are whisked away to the owners office where we make our hello´s. No line, No cover, No hassle.
Needless to say, DJ Scumfrog dropped a massive set. Pictures are on there way. The following night at Pacha were just as smooth, although greased with some financial wd40.

We have just arrived in Iguazu, on the border with Brazil and Paraugay to hang out in the jungle and see the water fall.

More later

The Journey Home...

From the air my lame ass Ralph Lauren garment bag managed to break at every possible gripping point. Don't buy designer luggage!

Suprising the Cancun to New York was relatively painless. As was the 3 hour wait until my next flight. Some Asian kid, hoping to bond with me perhaps, bought me giant size cognac. So large in fact I didn't finish it!

Virgin put a lovely duck buffet in the upper class lounge. Unfortunately all the food, booze and the flat bed didn't help in the sleeping department.

Anyway landed, as usual this was after circling London for 20 minutes, will someone please start building that bloody third runway.

Got through immigration in 11 seconds, why aren't we profiling more? Got my luggage, changed into a suit in the toilet..and then got a taxi to Central for our meeting....

Not bad, not great...another 5000 miles odd..

Just The Weekend...Cancun

Cancun, Mexico Admittedly it was a little more than the weekend but only just. My co-conspirator on this mission was an Ethiopian spy, code named “The Bald One” a.k.a. DJ.

The water was really blue...

The resort was fine, nothing special, my daily routine consisted of sleeping in my room, sleeping by the pool, sleeping in the pool, sleeping on the beach and sleeping.

As you can see it was a very rigid schedule that I had the discipline and commitment to stick to for the whole trip.

We went scuba diving as well which was very nice, although I think I stomped over half the coral. Singh’s and water don’t really mix.

In a twist of fate, the jet ski episode seem to have smashed my back, back into to position alleviating the debilitating pain I had all through my holiday.
