Ibiza September mash up!!

September- Friday

After a night with no sleep because i was so excited i got up early as sarah was arriving at 10.30am, i met her at the station and we decided to get drunk before leaving as you do, i hate flying so its better im a bit out of my mind, im like mr.t!! 'i aint getting on no plane'. We met my brother who was coming with us and made it to the airport just as they were closing the desk, i cant imaging how gutting that would of been but anyway we made it so all was good, a few more pints as our flight was delayed and eventually we boarded with big drunken cheesy grins thinking of ibiza and yes the raving had begun!! i had a quick sleep on the plane to distract myself and woke to sarah robbing my beer! so this is hows it gonna be eh?! We got to the hotel about 9.30pm ibiza time and couldnt wait to get out, we were staying right in the centre by the egg ( you will know what i mean if you have been, if you havent been whats happening?!) anyway we got ready to out, Sarah and my bro went for a beer and some goodies which they never came back with before we all headed to Plastik which was absolutely dead, we were gutted as this was the spot to start most big party nights, by now it was about 2am and seemed a bit late to pay into a club when we were all pretty tired deciding to have an early one or go where the night took us! We ended up meeting a couple of guys in there called Jamie and James from Leeds who after having a few drinks with them we all headed to ibiza rocks hotel to carry on the party! Had a good laugh and got pretty messed up resulting in James falling through a table on the balcony next to his mate who was passed out in his superman trunks!! Sarah and my bro were drinking on the balcony wondering where i was apparently when suddenly she heard 'Sarah!!' and saw me fly through the air in my underwear into the pool. Jamie had decided it was a good idea for us to jump in and in my drunken state i agreed. looking back it was funny but i think i got ill that night from my 6am swim!! We met some swansea boys who were a good laugh and partied til about 8.30,sarah joined me in the pool until we got so cold we decided to call it a night. Matt from swansea lent me his towel to take home and keep warm which i intended to take back but never did, sorry Matt-bless him. got a couple of hours sleep before heading to Buddha bar to chill in the sun and drink all day and spent most of the afternoon drunkenly tattooing each other with a lighter pen which sarah had stole off jamie-she went out that night with ket hed 2000+8 on her ankle beside a daisy chain and ibiza rocks logo im not even gonna tell you what mine said but apparently if destroyed still true so there you go!!
Saturday
After our day in buddha which is a great place to chill out because they have big comfy seats you can laze in the sun on with a nice cold beer and a great view of the beach not to mention the sexiest spanish bar men on the island if thats your type!! theres also really cute stray cats which we always name after djs, we now have pete tong, lisa lashes and a judge jules, bless them.
Saturday night we went to Es Paradis for the water party. Got mashed up again and spent the whole night dancing with sarah to cheesy dance anthems and anticipated the water!! rave it rave it rave it!! jamie arrived with another mate from scotland who was well funny doing the running man and calling himself puff daddy despite being as white as they come but there you go!! ibiza randoms, i fuckin loves it! at 5.30 the water was about to drop and drown the dancefloor so clever me thought the best place to be would be the middle with scottish puff! the water was awesome but so cold and as it kicked in it was like having bucket loads dropped on you, we persuaded sarah and jamie to join us for a bit before getting out to watch all the nutters swimming in the waist high water full of ravers and floating cig ends..me and sarah went back home drenched again!! bed for a couple of hours as usual before being woken up by the hot sun.

Sunday
We go for some food by the beach and spent the whole day tanning ourselves and getting excited about judgement sundays!! this is my favourite night out here and its always packed so we knew it would be a good one. We got guestlist sorted and as my bro was craving a guiness we went into the dodgy west end to find an irish bar-not a good idea off your head and in the mood to dance though as they were playing footloose and u2 etc, i hate u2-not good! we ran off asap and went ground zero for a rock music fix where sarah spent about an hour sat in the toilets while i kept her company from outside the cubicle. i knew she was ok though as she kept giving me the thumbs up from under the door. once she was ready to come out we went to eden luckily cos of the guestlist jumped the que (thanks to mathew and lashes-we owe you one!!) and joined the masses. sarah spent the first section of the night with my bro outside talking to randoms while i danced on my own with my own little ibiza bez i just befriended. they came in in time for some proper raving in the kissdafunk room which was awesome, me and sarah got on the speakers to strut our stuff with the dancers to mickey slim before some wasted guys joined us and we all got asked to get down-not right mr security guard!!we should get paid to show our skills haha what was he thinking!
We went in the main room for judge jules set which was a bit tame this time round to be honest- not his best-julesy sort it out! had a bit of a wasted photo sesh by the dj booth with micky slim and alex kidd-legends!! think they made our night until lisa lashes came out and stole the show! she was absolutley amazing and i think we danced harder than ever without stopping right until 7am when they decided to cut her off mid her dirty diana finale! she still had time to throw some shapes though and wowed us with her ballet performance with the bouncer! top dj and all round top bird! me and sarah went back to rave on the balcony until we dropped into bed shattered.
Monday
Started the day with food by the beach again, i had the only semi veggie option i could which was lovely to be fair while sarah had chicken and chips washed down with beers obviously!! my bro couldnt keep up with us hardcore party animals clearly and went to the hotel to shave his head (which really meant sleep as he never surfaced until tuesday!) while we sat on the beach tanning and raving to alex kidd and goldie lookin chain on the ipod.. 'i got a chain when i came of age..' classic!! We got some beers and watched the sunset talking about life before heading home desperate for a wee even debating on doing it in some posh garden we were so desperate!
we got changed and sat on the balcony watching the drug dealing shenanigans which we got pretty hooked on- best reality show ever before going to Mambo to see Roger Sanchez pre party set which was really chilled and a good start to the madness then off to eden again- our second home to party and dance the night away to the Koolwaters night where stanton warriors were playing but for some reason we found a happier place in the small room and decided to dance the night away to fran cossgrave like absolute nutters haha i wish we had a video of us running around the half empty room entertaining all the other nutters off their heads only pausing to dance at fran while shouting 'go on fran!!' and re enacting lashes' dirty diana scene. top night!! we didnt stop dancing until the music stopped and bizarrely enough i saw my business advisor off his head raving next to me but thats a different story! only in ibiza!! got an eden tshirt and went and sat on the beach where we met a sweet guy called remi who was a classroom assistant who had been there 20 weeks after spontaneously heading out there, he had some cool stories and walked us back to our hotel never to be seen again which is probably the only bad thing about ibiza, you meet so many cool people and connect with all sorts for a short time before all going your seperate ways but i guess thats travelling and its so nice to meet cool people. it really restores your faith in humanity!
we eventually dropped into bed at 8ish after sitting on the balcony in shock as it had started raining and lightning proper hollywood lightning where it forks in the sky- brilliant! we debated the predicted weather and discussed our pychic source in japan impressed with his knowledge! (thanks pritch!)
Tuesday
Last day and absolutley gutted, i felt well rough this morning and nearly passed out in the shower-not happy days! i think ive raved myself stupid but im sure i can squeeze another party in! rock n roll!!
we went for a meal in a different place this time, i had a lasagne which wasnt great with chips and a slice of pizza. all that dancing give me an appetite clearly, fat bastard! we got a couple of pints while waiting for the heavy rain to stop and then off we went tshirt and cd shopping! got a few goodies then went for a stroll and ended up in linekers bar drinking with the 18-30 nutters! one got naked and ran in the sea off his head before following randomers walking by to make friends with, raving in the old womens faces and kissing the guys for some reason..strange boy but well funny. there was a big gang of them completely out of it but they were good fun. we noticed that the swansea v cardiff match was showing later so decided to get changed for the night then headed back there to watch it with a load of welsh people and sarah(who watched the man utd match by herself with a bottle of san miguel from the shop cos she was almost broke which she hid under the table so she didnt get told off before getting ripped off on a pint of cider for 6 euros-ours were only 4!! oh,whats occuring?!)
the match was pretty intense especially as they were half swansea half cardiff supporters but they were all mates so all good. sadly swansea won but there you go. 5 pints later we got bored of linekers and headed to itaca (the best bongo man ever plays here alongside the dj and hes awesome) and bar m to get our freak on one last time as we had an early flight so chose not to go to a big club and get fucked per usual incase we didnt get up, to be honest 5 hardcore nights in a row off our heads was taking its toll a bit anyway so we chilled in there til around 4. had a laugh dancing in there and doing laughing gas which i think we got a bit obsessed with in the end- if i could take a tank home with me i would. some good tunes and lisa lashes, micky slim and some of the eden lot were in their so not a bad finale really to an awesome over the top long weekend of raving and livin it large in beefa!! bring on next year!! ive already decided im living here with sarah and any randomers who care to join us, the more the merrier! preferably in a big party mansion in the hills with a private yacht to party on whenever the mood takes us! im also getting married here (if i ever get married) on a big boat party with alex kidd (not to alex kidd by the way)on the decks after and everyone off their heads partying hard otherwise im not doing it haha!
We left bar m because it was closing and strolled up the strip home, the police were out random searching people for drugs which was really horrible, we saw that last time out here and guilty or not its so intense and scary that you feel guilty. they stand there selecting mainly guys to be fair to thoroughly search and question and we knew someone who got pulled aside and it was shit scary! they pretty much violate that person and warn them that if they have anything whatsoever on them thats it game over! the other guys who we didnt know that were being searched had also been in bar m and had passed some stuff to a girl when he got called over and they were gonna searh there hotel! bit of a downer to end the trip on but i guess its to expected.
we sat in the hotel contemplating the last few days and winding down before getting the longest sleep i had in days- about 4 hours and waking up absolutely gutted to be leaving. We got a taxi at about 8.30am to the airport and that was it ibiza part 2 over!back to manchester, back to reality and back to the tour but i fuckin loved it!!!
