Alternative Ibiza?

Recovery mode.

Cut a plaster cast off my mates leg yesterday because it would have cost €80 to get it removed 'professionally'. I am just about breaking even cash wise thanks to the fact I have a free, safe, outdoors bed. Loads of work lined up. Won't take long to get back there, but with getting all my stuff stolen plus €450 in fines, plus all the work I had completed confiscated, it was a bit of a tough blow.

All that aside, I am still really enjoying Ibiza this time. All looks very promising.

Onwards and upwards!
 
Recovery going well. Pocket full of paper money. I can pay for a bed and shower if I choose to do so, but my outdoor bed is very safe, very pretty views, very romantic and free. I wake to one of the most special sunrises I have ever experienced.

Great support from local business people once again. Only Three weeks away from my main gig. All is very good.
 
I had to borrow someones iPhone to take this.

My mate Mateus at about 10am today :D This guy is phenomenal! Kept at home most of the time, he occasionally escapes and goes on huge benders. Disabled to the point he can't snort his cocaine, so he just spoons it into his mouth.

--------------

When I used someobody elses iPhone my email address was listed as 'stanleyedwards' twat :(. My PayPal address was also listed. I have never given him my PayPal address. How does this work?

--------------

No problem opening work offers here, but this is still Spain. To close the deal you have to take the bull by the horns. I am off to buy blackboard paint to do new A boards for Sunset Cafe. I'll do a single side of a board to show what I can do and then quote €100 to complete the next Three sides.

I love that photo and must buy myself a new camera. I am missing so many opportunities. Mateus wasted in his Nike trainers with his empty cans of Heineken. It says so much! The guy has a razor sharp, extra wicked sense of humour. He has no right to complain about me posting his pic here :D Some twat stole his new smart phone whilst he was sleeping in the bank last night. How low can people go?
 
Man, I'm pissed off.

I'm fully expecting NOT to get to Beefa this year. I don't think my boss is going to allow me any serious time off during the summer, at least not enough time to travel to Ibiza, get fucked up, then recover. I'll be seriously pissed off - coz it is actually the one week in the year I look forward to. :mad:
 
Seems some cunt is spreading bad rumours about me. Already, a lot of familiar faces from Granada are appearing here, but some twat is telling people bad words about me. There are no bad words to tell - I am a total gentleman. :mad:

Might go buy a new camera to cheer myself up.

Why would anyone spread bad words about me :mad: :confused: :(
 
OK. I am almighty hungover. Just taken my old Bulgarian fold away bike to the bicycle repair shop. They couldn't believe anyone actually wanted to get the thing repaired, never mind pay for repairs.

Can I introduce you to my new friends Laura and Vitoria. They have just opened a shop here. They are both extra fucking beautiful and sexy, and very clever with it. Initially, I walked into their shop and thought 'WTF - who is going to pay this?'. Now, I am 100% convinced they are on course for success at the highest level. I want to marry one of them.

Ignore the other thread I started elsewhere yesterday. I wasn't very well.

You have probably met Mateus - King of Borra de Playa!
you've met mateus

Some great stuff on there. Pricey though.

I doubt that they will want to have your babies though. :(
 
Holiday over!

I have good contacts. Good work lined up. I need to find a place to stay with a view to making Ibiza my second base. Everything feels right here. Time to get my shit together. My Diadora bargain baseball boots are beginning to fall apart. My Slazenger tennis shirt is covered in red wine stains. I need to do some washing :D

Fucking Mateus. Most here struggle to get a few €'s a day on the street. Not Mateus. 8 in the morning he goes out on a Five minute beg and comes back with €30 :mad: You cannot refuse the guy. He is a very likeable character, but after Five days on holiday he is now a bit smelly. People pay hime to go away :D Class.

Big sketch and more chalk boards to do today. They will be the best chalk boards on the island. I'm doing them with acryllic paint so they can be cleaned. More permanent and a longer lasting advert for me as well as the bar. They are getting a bargain because Sunset Cafe Ibiza have been very, very good to me.
 
Yeah, great reading.
Ama diggin them Get Dirty pantalonis, gonna make me own though.

Que?

Leave the Italian girls alone. They are sweet as!

I am going to moan though :D All I want to know is that all is OK. I send emails, text messages and just don't get a reply. Don't do this girls - it is not fair. All you need to do is reply with an 'I am OK - thanks'. That is all you need to do!

Not sure where I went wrong this time :confused: Anyway, I am taking an early night this evening. I am fucked.

:hmm: They might think you're a stalker.

I am sure they do :( Far too liberal with my compliments.

A very wet Sunday here. What to do? It has all gone a bit Aberystwyth.

Option 1: Sit in the internet cafe all day and try to work on my books.
2: Go see the Joan Miro exhibition at the museum of contemporary art.
3: Find football and pray to the almighty that Granada don't go down.
4: Go to the prom' and watch the boats doing boaty, rainy stuff whilst drinking beer and sinking into a moody sulk because none of my favourite women are communicating with me.

Option 5: Do another chalk board for Sunset Cafe Ibiza and at least cover my costs for the day.

Talking of costs; it is actually very affordable here even now when you know where to go. €18 for backpackers type place (sheets, towel and good breakfast included). €20/night for your own room with sink and TV in a pension (communal showers). You can rent a room in a shared house close to Sant Jordi for just €100/month. Avoid the North East corner of the island - for some reason I don't understand this is currently desres and ultra expensive. Expensive like €600/month for a fucking caravan!

Talking of costs; the clubs here! You want to know how much an annual licence costs? Close to a Million!!! DC10 is only open on Monday. It is the less 'dressy' of clubs - a sort of after weekend venue. 5,000 capacity all paying €35 each entry, then paying €15 for a bottle of water. That is a small bottle of water. One night a week from end of May until end of September. Clubs is huge money here. Huge! They are all trying to brand themselves also. Branding seems to be the thing here. Hence I have changed Sunset Bar to Sunset Cafe Ibiza ;)

What is this? 32 cans of slightly out of date Alhambra Especial dumped outside the Hyper Centro! You can never afford to ignore fate. Day off :)
 
I forgot to mention, and it is worth mentioning...

Mateus is all cleaned and togged out in new designer gear. Brand new Puma's - the full works. Showered and smelling fresh once again. Some random stranger took him shopping, then took him home and got him cleaned up. Some rich people here are actually very good people. What a fucking star guy! It isn't just about money.

Wet, rainy day. Good day for moody sulking.
 
Seems I am indeed a stalker :( Despite the fact I have spent the last 10 years travelling around the World working as an artist, it is possible that I just came to Ibiza to stalk someone. How exciting! Forget the fact that I have gig of the decade here - this seems to be irrelevant.

That said, she was really the only reason I first came here :D

Bad me. I am an internet stalker and stuff. Her 'best' friend told her so. Fucking smart phones. Get real again people.

--------------------

Mateus is working his way through 32 cans of out of date Alhambra Especial. I am on wine. Day off!
 
I am in the internet cafe with a packet of licorice sticks and Two cans of strong lager. Hoping Granada do enough - all is going well so far.

Prettty sure I will regret the licorice in the morning, but it is nice. It is a nice evening after the rains. I am being boring and keeping myself to myself. How the fuck can anyone call me a stalker?

Anyway, her loss really. Don't like to read as being bitter, but I am always good company - for anyone.

Up the Granadinos!!! Three seasons running it has come down to last game of the season :D
 
It's a mystery stan! :D
But enjoy your evening. :)

Well, yeah; I can see that side also.

Moving on... I am on a mission to make enough cash to buy a replacement laptop. A beautiful, sunny Monday. Just a couple of weeks away from the coolest job in the World ever part 256. Beer fort breakfast :) All is good. But, I am in need of some compassionate female company. It is essential to get a female perspective once in a while. Once in a while ;)
