Hola Amigos!



Hola Amigos, just an update to let you know that I am still safely on the run. The reason I have not updated in a few days is because I was in a hideout in an unknown location to let the heat cool down but now everything is cool again, I can update you again.
Well first of all, I can now freely travel to whole of Europe and possibly Ireland with ease and without detection thanks to my new passport.

So now that I have that passport, it is easy to go around and see all the sites, I visited Plaza d'Espanya where there is a museum but it was closed so we just took some pictures outside of it and stuff ,must go back there and take a visit when it is open.
Plaza d'Espanya at night.

Ok and we got an apartment for a while but we wont be hanging out here too long until we find a really safe apartment (I just don't feel safe in this one but it is nice).

One of the other good things about being here is this beer, it is called estrella and it costs about 50 cent for a small can (33cl) and it tastes quite good,so good in fact that you would really drink a lot of it,so much of it that you could get really drunk and do some crazy shit....sorry i'm rambling now, i will try and keep the updates more regular and keep you all update..might even take a trip to the Zoo even!!
Thanks for reading,
Peace Out!!

Getting Out Of Andorra!

You would think that getting out of Andorra which is a little blip on the border of France and Spain is an easy job but with French Border Patrol on one side and Spanish Border Patrol on the other side and quoting me new found Andorran friend who could not speak a word of english, "Eef yew are wunted mann, day wull cutch yew whun yew leeest expict iit".
He didn't say this, that is actually what he wrote down because I could not understand a fucking word he said. So after receiving this intel, I decided that this was going to be harder than I had imagined so I had to use my imagination. First up was disguise that Jackie picked, I felt that it could of worked but once I hit the Andorran chill, I could understand why girls wear leggings and tights.
So that was not going to work and I really needed to get back to Barcelona so we hit the shops in Andorra to get more creative ensuring that I would cross the border safely especially while trying to bring 1000 Benson and Hedges cigarettes back over the border, haha.
I tried on numerous costumes, I picked my favourite 2 but Jackie reckoned I would never get away with it!
Me getting my cigarettes!!

While browsing around for all these disguises in Andorra, I came across another very well known fugitive who is on the run and is certainly happy when ever anyone sees him. I cannot even dream of ever being as well know as this fugitive, he has reached heights of fame or should I say infamousness across the globe and to meet him today was just a pure delight. He just waved to me without a care in the world.

So after seeing Mich and trying on all the disguises i thought were good but definitely would not fool the Spanish "la policia".
So it was back to the room for me and Jackie and after smoking a lot of Benson and Hedges and doing a lot of costume and disguise research on the internet, we finally came up with a plan that would not fail but in order for it to work, I had remembered watching my favourite film "Oceans 11" and remembered the little Chinese guy and BOOM! it had to work, Jackie had to put all the cigarettes into one bag to take that heat from me at the border check point.
Needless to say it did not fail to work and it fooled the "la policia" with ease, mind you it was a very bumpy ride and I was thrown from side to side in the luggage department but we managed to get across the border, yes all of us, me, Jackie and the cigarettes.
So I got to Barcelona in the end and I am here just chilling like I am the king of my castle.
Being on the run is not as easy as it looks so I have decided to start up a "Fugitive Fund".Just leave me a comment and I'll let you know how to contact me and donate some money to help me stay on the run. It will also go to good things like sending me down to Pamplona to get chased by the bulls, I heard they are faster than pigs so I should have no problem outrunning them.
Stay tuned for daily updates.

Peace Out!!

Heating Up In Andorra!!

So we woke up late this morning at around 9am and you would think that it is cold here in Andorra in the morning with the snow covered mountains of the Pyrenees, you would wonder what all this global warming was about. Well it did warm up this morning, actually the heat was on.
We were confined to our room this morning for at least 2 hours as Jackie so kindly pointed out all of "la" Andorrian "policia" were outside, I didn't believe her so I had to check the window, I told her to close the shutters immediately and she had to get a photo to prove the "heat" was really on.(see pic)
.
We eventually got out and took a browse around the city and looked at all the electronics shops with cheap ass shit and litre bottles of smirnoff vodka for 7 euros ,there was also a gallon drum of 96% vodka for 11 euro. Eventually we just went to the supermarket as Jackie was getting hungry.
While I was browsing around the supermarket I came across quite a puzzle, all of you have surely seen that ad on t.v where all the little men are making the little babybels (yes the cheese).
Well how the fuck did they lift this (see pic).
So we finished our shopping and decided seeming that I was a free man and all that, we would walk to the nearest park and Jackie would make my roll out of beautiful Andorran cheese and ham which I have heard so much about.
I have to say it did live up to expectations and I even went for second helpings, far better than any prison food garbage which I probably would be getting if I was in Ireland, haha.
I think the picture proves how nice it was.
After the beautiful roll in a park surrounded by Pyrenees Mountains,which I had to get a picture to show everyone, please don't take any notice of my growing beard or my hair having no gel in it, I used to be a slick, well groomed guy but this is the only way I can go unnoticed in these parts, Jackie is also happy despite how she looks in the picture
They are some jokers over here in Andorra alright, they have snow nearly all year round and what do you think they do, they go and make this massive snowman out of space lights, don't ask me where they got them, I was afraid to go any closer to him.
Now I like the cold and with all the "la policia" from this morning, Andorra was getting a bit too hot for me so we have decided to move to a cooler place and there was only one place I could think that was cooler, yep you've guessed it "Barcelona", we're heading back there tomorrow and guess what some fella who owns an Irish Pub (you would of never thought that now) has offered BOTH, yes, me and Jackie jobs there, so we gotta go there tomorrow and meet him, hopefully I will get passed border control.
So I'll leave all you guys with a good night picture from Andorra.( Yeah I know its bigger than a prison cell and we can jump around.
Peace out everyone.
I love you Mammy.

Close Calls!!!

Got up early today around 12 o clock and myself and Jackie headed on down to Port Vella ,thats the man made marina thing I was on about last night. We headed into the shopping center and I went for Starbucks and we then headed over to the aquarium where Jackie nearly got eaten by a shark.(see picture)
When we came back out into the port, we decided to take a few more pictures of the area, that is when I got the first close call. Jackie was getting a picture of me in front of the big tall statue with a man pointing his finger. All of a sudden I was being surrounded by "la policia". I panicked and made about making a swift exit from the area.

So as the statue was pointing in that direction, myself and Jackie agreed that we should follow his advice so we grabbed our bags and hit the metro to the bus station, while waiting in the bus station Jackie was advised to keep the laptop in the suitcase as the place was full of thieves and they would just whip it off her. I assured Jackie that if they did they would not out run me.
After all the talk about thieves we decided to head for the forgotton piece of land in between France and Spain that has a 0 crime rate,tax free and was exactly where the statue was pointing, yeah you've guessed it - ANDORRA!!!

We hopped on the bus with some soup and sandwiches for the 4 hour journey to Andorra, nothing exciting about this until we got to the border crossing and Jackie thought I was definitely caught this time, once again "la policia" pulled the bus over and came aboard, they asked to see our passports which we showed them as I gave him an innocent look (it sure did work) and he continued about his business checking the rest of the passengers.
A couple of minutes later they brought the sniffer dog aboard and Jackie really started to panic but I was only worried that the dog would smell her, this was not to be and he continued on.

Into Andorra La Vella we arrived and after getting rid of our luggage, we decided to browse some closed shops and let me tell you the stuff here is shit cheap between cigarettes and camcorders to mp5 players,pepper spray and stun guns -no wonder they have a 0 crime rate.
If you want any stuff sent back just let me know, I will be more than happy to make some money off you.

It's cold enough here but you'd expect that with it being a skiing resort, I'll have to give that a go.

I'll catch some pictures of Andorra tomorrow, the battery in the camera was dead so ill just leave you with a couple of pictures from Barcelona.

I don't think I can be caught in Andorra by the way because it is not part of the European Union, hahahaha.

Peace Out,
The Fugitive

Fugitive On The Run


It's now official in Conna (The town that never sleeps),I am a fugitive on the run. After a few hours bad sleep on the ground of London Stansted airport, waking up at 5am to get a seat to sleep on and a few hours better sleep there where Jackie made sure I stayed nice and warm. We woke up and checked in for our easyjet flight to Barcelona.

Not long after arriving in Barcelona airport, we caught a bus to Placa De Espana and hopped on the metro to take us to the beautiful and picturesque Placa Catalunya, we booked into a hotel for the night where you could get as much free food and drink (including alcoholic) as you wanted.

Not long after hitting up some WiFi on the laptop, the news had spread a couple of hundred miles from Conna to Barcelona, I was a FUGITIVE and i was on the run.
For anyone that doesn't know what a fugitive is then let me give you a quick google definition:
definition:someone who is sought by law officers; someone trying to elude justice

Now as far as I know there is no law officers seeking me because I am after passing a couple dozen "la policia" since I have been here and they seem as uninterested in me as I am in them but I will try to make friends with them and maybe get a couple of photos taken with them that I can post here and show you.
Now as for the "eluding justice" part, for all of you who were familiar with the court case but could not bring yourself to ask me about it, I was in fact pleading "not guilty" as there was an injustice carried out on me and the only problem that could of occurred here is the justice would of eluded me.
As a famous saying goes "It is better to have one over on the world than the world have one over on you"

We went up to the fountains in the center of Placa Catalunya today and took a few pictures (I will post them), we then went to a restaurant and tried some tapas, we didn't know what we were getting but it was nice although it was small and expensive which was probably because we were on the main street which was Las Ramblas where we then went for a walk and got offered hashish and coke about 20 or 25 times within the space of 15 minutes.Very nice street all the same!!!:)

At the end of the street is the Marina which I am sure was man made according to what i was reading, it is really nice and is supposed to have a spectacular aquarium which we are going down to try and have a look tomorrow.

I am not sure how long we will spend in Barcelona but I will be sure to keep you updated on everything so you will not miss anything. ;)
