crazy eyes twitterer

2 Comments Posted by on June 13, 2010

2 Comments Posted by on July 5, 2009

I was in the the fashionable “no name” bar in Dublin last night. It was full of attitude after we spent a few minutes in the short queue at the door. My friend said it was like a hangout for desperate women, desperate men too it seems. One country girl got shitty to the extreme [...]
