Warning! -This review will be scatty as, as you can imagine and I've prob forgot loads of stuff but here goes...
Reet! Was still mongoosed from the Circus/Global weekend that ran upto the 2nd.
MONDAY
Actually got up late on the day
and was rushing around like a headless chicken trying to get everything sorted (missed out packing some stuff in the process). Got to the airport and there was a 3hour delay! So I ate lots (which I usually do, but more so when bored).
Landed bout midnight (supposed to be hitting amnesia then!). Then there was a 45 min wait for a taxi! Was all going Tong I thought! Was going to be fun finding an apartment at that time. Luckily I remembered a place where I stayed a couple of years ago and the manager remembered me and sorted me out with a double room for 20euros a night! Reeesult!
And I got room 303!!!!!!! I KNOW!!!!!!
Met up with McRackin 8) (THANKS AGAIN FOR THE BDAY PRESENT DOODE) went for a few brewski's, then met Jack Striker (cheers for the beer mate). Got to amnesia bout 4ish, luckily I had my ticket and band sent to me the week before so could walk straight in without queueing Missed Garnier! 
GUTTED! The whole reason why I flew out on my own before my mates was so I could catch Garnier-flight delays eh!
Anyways Vath was fantastic! Spotted P Diddy with one of them horn noise making things! with Erick. Some random almost knocked me over the top balcony just so he could get closer to P Diddy!
Met some GORGEOUS girl who worked for Underground. God she was so fit I almost licked her face there and then!
Got some wicked photos/videos of Amnesia from this night- Ill have to host them somewhere soon
Amnesia's security that I spoke to and their lighting people were mucho friendly this year
There was a bit of a kick off in the area looking directly towards the dj booth towards the end- would NOT want to be the person who got 'escorted' out of the building!
Considered going the beach party after but didnt know if there would be anyone I knew there so gave it a miss.
TUESDAY
Met up with Sarah at Bar M for a couple of drinks then had to run over to Mambo to meet Ibiza Girlie and her stunning friend. Couldnt get a table there so we went to Rey De Copas instead. Totally missed sunset because we talked all the way through! Ended up smoking when IG mentioned the name! Good to catch up again L
Back at acid house heights ran into a mate of mine Tim who I met through the party scene Liverpool a couple of months ago! Turns out he's in room 301! And djing in a bar in the west end! Small world!
Underwater. Firstly- credit to the guy who ran the door. Thats how its supposed to be run. Space has competition for best run door!
Got in and Trevor Nelson was in the MAIN ROOM! Damn good job he done. Great to see the crowd embracing the tunes and not brushing it off. Salt & Pepper's Push it was the personal fave for me
Don't know why but the whole vibe at Underwater seemed different/strange for me. Darren came on and was on form
Left at 6ish (never usually get off early either).
WEDNESDAY
Supposed to meet Sarah for some drinks but slept in! no air con in room and was ROASTING when I got up!
Met up with IG and H and went for a meal at Villa Mercedes (GREAT service, TOP wine, Quality JAZZ ) food wasn't that bad either
Heres something I knew id have to put in that Ibiza Girlie said -AND I QUOTE!!
'maybe I should take up doing drugs'!
YES! her exact words people!
Ended up on a shopping excursion with IG and H.
Subliminal! supposed to be Deep Dish or Morillo and Lawler back to back all night- which was something I was looking forward to. Lawler did play early on (QUALITY SET!!) And Mr P Diddy decided to do a pa afterwards Ive NEVER seen Pacha so Rammed!!! Must have been P Diddy's name which attraced all the star chasers. Some chav bruce willis lookalike and his lacoste wearing chav sidekick were shouting Erick NON STOP! and pushing people out of the way! There was also some other goon shouting 'shaun' to P Diddy
Loads of crowd pleasing tunes. Morillo got a reaction and a half when he dropped 'break down the doors' though - had me raving my socks off as well
P Diddys security had me in fits! Im also slightly concerned about the state of one of the 1200's in Pacha's main room after he stood on it!
Took a break for a bit and went to chill on the terrace. Talking to this friendly guy who ended up being Leap from here! As soon as he mentioned he used a website to book from America I knew it would be this one and mentioned the chat forum etc etc. Also met Tonybigpotato from here as well.
Remember making a complete noob of myself with Pacha's events co-ordinator (again!) why do we always remember the embarassing moments?!
Back to the bar when I could make out Higher State Of Consciousness (I ALWAYS get onto that as soon as its coming in) so went to throw some shapes on the floor of rave When some girl walked past and stared and me, then walked past again and said 'are you nish'? Ended up being a mate of my mate Jen's who remembered my face from Jenny's photos! Mental!
Enough of that I thought -usual nice to meet you stuff then grinned away to wink Jaguar was dropped as well!! BUT! P Diddy waffled over it!! NO NO NO NO NO!! Diddy! I don't care who you are! You CANNAE talk over Jaguar! Its one of them unwritten rules!
After that I got offski.
THURSDAY
Firstly- THANK YOU! To everyone who called/txt/emailed me on this day
And MUCHO Thanks to everyone who replied to the Birthday Thread -esp Crystal for starting it xx
Got a txt of Jen to say her and Lisa had landed so went to Kanya for a couple with them and Damo. Then got a txt of my mate from uni Matt so went to check out his apartment and have a quick drink there.
Later Me, Jen and Lisa went the Underground, but only for one because I had to be in Pacha by 2. My other mates, Vinny, Modders, Laura and their mates were already in Pacha and I got welcomed with a bday drink! which was nice. Then I got another- this time a double- which was f***ing great! (not for Vinny though -40euros!) Even got some free cheekies from Vin, then a half of Jen, then a half of Lisa.
WASTED! Was smoking lots, till I got a NASTY EVIL cigarrette off some random bloke which was disgusting!
Zabiela- FUNKING HECK!!! The shit that bloke can do is unbelievable!! Then Sasha came on!!!! Sasha came on. thats all that needs to be said (Right Rob)
Raved till 7.30 then left.
FRIDAY
IM SUCH A TIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I slept in till 7 and Missed Tongs show! What a tit!!!
Found out later that Sasha played the hotmix at the end as well! GUTTED!
Went over to Bay Bar to meet Modders & Laura & Vinny. Womack, Anna and John flew over today as well so we were all in there catching up having a few drinks I really wanted to do Pure Pacha, but after a day of spending a bit of $$ couldnt really afford it, left it too late to blag a list, and didnt know anyone who was going anyway. Modders and everyone went off to Defected, which almost tempted me.
Then I got a txt of Jen saying they were on their way over so stayed and met them in there for a couple. Then went to Viper bar for one, then back down towards Mambo's to meet the others with Jen and Lisa- who gave me half a *EDIT*on the way, then back to Viper then to Plastic, where I can remember Lisa telling me 'you're f***ed'. Off half as well! Result! Ended up smoking again
This was only night in 5years Ive NOT gone to a club in IBIZA!
Even got a greasy kebab afterwards!
SATURDAY
FINALLY caught up with Xpander *who missed my bday! -
She seen me the morning after the night before looking a complete state and sporting a beard! Seems out xpander friend had been boozing it up in the west end non stop!
Night time! Was the big one - Cream and Radio 1 essential mix (again).
Left the apartment to be greeted with 'MASQUE BOY!' The girl who worked in the office of the Masque (club for Chibuku and Circus etc) remembered me! She was working out on the island for the season. Had a quick chat to her before mooching over to this random bar for a quick drink with Matt, Gaz and Nick then headed over to Bar M to meet Jen and Lisa, Modders, Laura, Vinny Anna etc.
Bar M had one of the pre parties for Cream with Yousef and Jon Carter so thats obviously were it was at.
Got to the club. -I knew the guestlist would go Tong! It always does with all the money grabbing mo fo's on the case! Anyways, ended up getting in, was miffed off still though so went in the main room and sat under the dj booth (WHERE ITS VERY VERY LOUD) getting wasted before rejoining everyone everyone in the Terrace where Jon gave me a *EDIT I then bought another off Lisa for the fook of it.
Smoking again Got a drink off a few people which was nice! The my mates Jessica and Rob turned up! BESTEST suprise ever! Jess got me a birthday drink and threw a LOT of c*EDIT down my throat (bless)
Met some bloke who goes Chibuku (club in Liverpool) a lot! Was half of Liverpool's club goers on the island?!
Seen Leap again who called me down, then walked off when I told him I couldnt get him in the vip! Cheeky!
I can just remember being a complete disgrace that night! Embarrasment and a half, I think I even caught Seb laughing his head off at me (again)
Yousef banged it out till about 7.30-8. Got home with a banging headache where I boshed the nurofen.
SUNDAY
YEEEASSS!!! Got a cab there earlyish with some randoms. Terrace! Bless! The last year
Lawler! Man never fails. Eruptions when he dropped Strings of Life Also met Dani, Laura's old uni mate, who just screams 'vogue'.
Mooched around Space for a while. Love walking around that gaff. Had a go on an xbox then had a chill on the roof top terrace for a bit as well were I got all philosophical smoking with a random. I think I came out with 'would it be better to have a long good life, or a short Amazing life!'
Hooked up with Jess and Rob who told me Smokin Jo's Beach party had been cancelled GUTTED -BUT they were playing in the red room at space! REESULT!! SO spent most of the night in there! Tim Sheridan - what a dj! Highlight of my sunday!
Ran back down to the discotheque to catch Sneak's last 30mins. Then a bit of Felix Da Housecat before P Diddy got on that mic again! Blatently not mc-ing on the spot, lots of the tracks were the same from the subliminal gig (and Im guessing the eden one) so he's obviously influenced Felix's set! Listened for a bit then had some geezer ask me if I 'want something to drink' so I ran back upto Smokin Jo and Tim Sheridan 8) Where Jessica said she's never danced so muched in her life -says it all really. Jo and Tim - hats off
Anyone notice the scary video graphics in space this sun btw?
Later met this couple Howard and Gemma through Lisa. Ibiza NEEDS more people like this. Top couple. Ended up going back to San An for a few beers with then till 9ish. Then was supposed to go DC10 but ran out of $
Remember randomly walking around after everyone went to bed looking for monster munch! Found a place after a good 25-30mins of searching though
MONDAY
Damn! cant remember much with all the memory loss..?!
Ah! Thats right! Woke up with major back ache and evil heartburn! supposed to meet Jen & Lisa and Howard & Gemma at Mambo's for a meal at 7. But being RUBBISH! They were all late and we couldn't get a table so we went to Savannah's instead.
Later met this stunning girl called Gill at the taxi rank who I knew I remembered from somewhere, Turned out she worked at Plastik the year before! She had this newcastle accent thang going on as well which was giving me the horn IMMENSELY so I quickly jumped a cab to Jk's bbq for a bit to catch up and a few smokes, everyone from there went onto Manumission and I went home to get a shower (nightmare getting a cab from Hotel Victoria!) and then went to Pacha for Sanchez. Met this really clever Italian girl called Valerie on the way. Ever notice how loads of Italians and Spanish can speak English really well? Our education system is shit!
Got to Pacha a bit late *(buses were late) and the fella at the door said the guestlist was shut! NIGHTMARE! So this girl comes up behind me and she manages to get in ok. So I said 'hold on a min -what list is she on?!' the **** at the door then knew he had no argument so asked for my name- he didnt even check the list properly he just said 'you're not on'! cheek! It WOULD have been on, all he had to to was check it properly!
This was the same goon who said I wasn't on the list for Renaissance! Before he turned me away I said 'Well whats that then' and pointed to my name. Only then did **** boy let me in.
Back to the point the ****
wouldnt let me in for Sanchez!!!
I was infuriated by that. Sat outside Pacha for 20mins giving myself a headache before getting a cab back. Expensive night!
TUESDAY
Gemma and Howard took me to this wicked Chinese place for a meal in the evening then....
CARL COX AT SPACE WITH LAURENT GARNIER!!!!!!!!!! This one the baby I was looking forward to for a Long time!
Supposed to go Bora Bora first but after all the fooking around with everything (wont go into detail) we went straight to Space.
Not sure who was playing the terrace first but total ABUSE of filters and fx. BUT he played the instrumental of Get up Stand up so I'll let him off
Ran into Stu Hirst there who was mucho looking forward to Garnier as much as I. He said he played a blinder at Cocoon the week before
Coxy warmed up the terrace nicely, then went into see laboratoires garnier inside. Nice and deep to start off with. Then built up nicely. Then completely ripped the shit out of it!! Before Coxy joined him round 3 going back to back. Ridiculously hard and prob the best set Ive heard in my Entire life! -THAT GOOD!
Lisa gave me an AMAZING *EDIT! which was ace but she tended up chucking up on them. She had to leave early;
me; do yo want me to come with you (thinking UG please say no)
Lisa; well do you want to stay here
moi; im not being funny Lise, but this is the best set ive heard in my entire life!
Lise; ok no worries,
Nish- (Reesult) Let me know when u get in.
RAVE RAVE RAVE
Walking in I remember telling everyone that this night had the potential to be the best night of my holiday- and it prob was!
Got out bout 7. Back to San an at 8. Ran into Tim and Vinny outside Koppas;
WEDNESDAY
Tim- 'alright mate, coming back to my apartment, we're having a *EDIT party and yours is free'!
Nisho - 'f***ing right mate! Ill have some of that thankuplease!'
Back at the apartment I remember telling myself 'f***' Nish u havent even packed yet douchbag! U cant be boshing *EDIT! So I made my excuses. Left (gutted). Packed. Got 1 and a half hours sleep and that was my last night in Ibiza.
Met Gemma and Howard for another one of them Chinese meals then headed over to Itaca for a quick one before John Kelly (I think) came in with a film crew (tosser).
Then Russell gave us a lift to the airport (lifesaver). Flight was delayed (nightmare-the one time I don't get insurance and I have flight delays coming out of my ears). and the monster much was a £1 a bag at the airport munchie station!!!! SCANDALOUS!
Ended up having bodyshocks and spilling my water everywhere at the airport and taking stoopid amounts of nurofen to keep the sniffles at bay.
Back to Manchester at 23:30. No buses coaches or trains to liverpool! nightmare! I just mooched around the airport for a bit then noticed a train to liverpool at 4.30am! oh well, only 4hours! Almost necked a *EDIT but I resisted temptation. Laughed my head off at the person who almost got shat on by a pigeon outside the airport before they gave me the dirtiest look EVER.
Interesting fact! -Manchester Airport - TRY FINDING A BIN!! I looked for 30-40 minutes for one before the cleaner came out and said 'they don't do bins'! bit weird that.
Back to liverpool at 5.30 and FINALLY got to bed at 6!
Ibiza 2004 then. Almost finished me off! Have the worst flu now (im lemsipped upto f***) - but it was worth it though. I thought the island was quiet this year. But its still rocking.
Never got bit before, but Mosquitos bit the shit out of me this year, so either;
1) they recently fed on a stoner and have the munchies
2) they have become addicted to amphetamine based narcotics
3) they're just being greedy!

.Met Gemma and Howard for another one of them Chinese meals
then headed over to Itaca for a quick one before John Kelly (I think) came in with a film crew (tosser).Then Russell gave us a lift to the airport (lifesaver). Flight was delayed (nightmare-the one time I don't get insurance and I have flight delays coming out of my ears). and the monster much was a £1 a bag at the airport munchie station!!!! SCANDALOUS!
Ended up having bodyshocks and spilling my water everywhere at the airport
and taking stoopid amounts of nurofen to keep the sniffles at bay. Back to Manchester at 23:30. No buses coaches or trains to liverpool! nightmare! I just mooched around the airport for a bit then noticed a train to liverpool at 4.30am! oh well, only 4hours!
Almost necked a *EDIT but I resisted temptation. Laughed my head off at the person who almost got shat on by a pigeon outside the airport before they gave me the dirtiest look EVER. Interesting fact! -Manchester Airport - TRY FINDING A BIN!! I looked for 30-40 minutes for one before the cleaner came out and said 'they don't do bins'! bit weird that.
Back to liverpool at 5.30 and FINALLY got to bed at 6!
Ibiza 2004 then. Almost finished me off! Have the worst flu now (im lemsipped upto f***) - but it was worth it though
. I thought the island was quiet this year. But its still rocking.Never got bit before, but Mosquitos bit the shit out of me this year, so either;
1) they recently fed on a stoner and have the munchies
2) they have become addicted to amphetamine based narcotics
3) they're just being greedy!
