Poor Old Madiera - 22 Feb 2010
Madeira’s a funny little place. I went here once on a cheap flight from London. It’s like a few mountains poking out of the Atlantic with hundreds of houses clinging to the sides. Unfortunately, the little island suffered from a fair bit of rain recently, and washed a fair bit of the island’s infrastructure into the sea.

I’ve always wanted one of those campervans made by that famous German marquee – no longer in production however. I like the idea that you could save a load of money on hotels and hostels with a motorhome; carry all the food you need that you bought at the supermarket – and away you go

Depending on what kind of party you’re having, you might also want to think about investing in some Champagne bubble makers to lighten the mood, or perhaps some confetti id you don’t mind going a bit of vacuum cleaning afterwards! You might also want to get some kind of dressing up gear for your party goers to help increase the joviality; masks, tiaras, crowns – you name it, there is sure to be an appropriate time to wear.

I did run out at one stage in my trip, but I was in Kuala Lumpur, where you don’t even need a prescription to get contact lenses; so I got loads and saw everything with perfect clarity all around the globe.

What is VOIP? Well I used it over Christmas to attempt a conversation with someone in Spain*. It was quite annoying as the person I was talking to heard my voice about 5 seconds after I spoke, and their voice often broke up into a weird ecohey, elongated, robotic mess. They thought I was just being silly. But I was actually using VOIP phone.

So what are these global hotspots for wedding venues that I speak of? I don’t know, maybe Las Vegas if you really want to be tedious. Or just get a cheap wedding in a registry office and spend the 5 grand you saved on a 3 month holiday.

But I guess you could always change it if you want. People who start a new life in the UK often discard their original name because it is too difficult to pronounce. But another reason might be that it’s a lot easier to integrate if you have a common name.

Travelling is really about the time you spend travelling. It’s not about sitting by the fire when you’re an old codger and showing pictures of your travels to your grandchildren. It’s about the time you spend there – that time is now – because it’s always now, isn’t it? That means there’s no time, just the illusion of it. But if you do think time exists, you should get some photo books.

You’d then try and seduce an elegant business woman, by suggesting some love tryst involving a banjo, a bongo and some serious coitus. You’d fail, of course – she’d find the idea most unappealing – and next morning whilst at another tedious business conference you’d see her giving a speech about how she’s going to take over your company and be your boss.
