Just back from my week in September on Ibiza. Overall was a good week but not as good as June. Good to see all the usual faces and meet a few new ones too.
Friday: Flight from Gatwick and straight out to meet Bubble and Cookie for some food in Dalt Villa and drinks in the Dome. Back to apartments in Playa den Bossa relatively early (4am) and straight to bed. Stayed in the Atzaro Apts for the week and they were ok.
Saturday: Breakfast in Passion (which we did every day). Thanks to Lana for all the lovely smoothies which definitely kept me alive all week. Spent the day on the beach in PDB. Went to San An in the evening for sunset at Coastline and some drinks with Barbie, TMT, Bubble and Cookie. Late dinner in Italian Restaurant in PDB and then off to bed by 3am in preparation for Space.
Sunday: Breakfast and a bit of sun bathing and then off to Space for around 5pm. Met various people on the Terrace, some very briefly and some for a bit longer. Good to see Jon and Becki, BBS, Kang, the Scoobies, Drew (very briefly), Fusion (who I had a very long random chat with; dont forget Im coming to Tel Aviv for Israel v Ireland World Cup game next year) and all the other usual suspects. Sorry if I have left anyone out here.
Thought Tom Novy and Yousef were very good. Steve Lawler was good but nothing special. Was at Space twice this week and thought the music was a lot more electronic than usual. Dont have a problem with that but just something I think I noticed.
Left Space around 2am with the intention of coming back. Went to PDB beach, to Barbie and TMT's beach house
for a few beers. Was far too cold and ended up going home around 2.30am.
Monday: Spent the day by the pool and then went to Bambuddha Grove for dinner. Nice meal and drinks. Still think I prefer KM5 and others. Went to Es Vive to meet Barbie and TMT for drinks. They went off to Pacha for Sanchez and decided to go home although I was itching to go to Cocoon. Got home and decided to go back out and met up with Jon, Becki and friends at Cocoon even though previous night was beginning to take its toll. Probably my best night of the week. Sven Vath and Richie Hawtin were brilliant. Remember saying to Jon at around 4am that I was thinking of going home as thought Richie Hawtin had brought the tempo down a bit and within 10 seconds it was banging again so stayed for another hour or so.
Tuesday: Plan was to get up, get some breakfast and go to Space for Carry on. Got to the door and was EUR 35 in and was also beginning to feel a bit of flu coming on so decided to give it a miss.
Spent the day by the pool and then Figuretas in the evening for Tapas and decided to give Miss Moneypennys a miss and head home early.
Wednesday: Spent the day at Tropicana on Cala Jondal. Really nice beach and bar/restaurant. Very relaxing and nice food and drink. Really recommend it. Dinner in Ibiza Town in Pinochhio. Really recommend this place for anyone looking for decent cheap meal in Ibiza Town. Its Italian and we ended up paying EUR 35 for two of us which included two starters, two mains, bottle of wine, water and tip. It is usually full of locals.
Drinks on Calle di Virgin and got nicely sorted out with free wristbands for La Troya. Went to La Troya around 2.30am. Very good night as usual. Went last year and in June and have noticed as a gay night it is getting a lot more straight as time goes by. Again, not a problem, just a comment.
Back to friends apartment in PDB and then onto Space for La Troya Carry on. Stayed there until 2pm and was pretty ruined by the end of it but very enjoyable day/night overall.
Thursday: Home to bed by 2.30pm and stayed there until 9pm. Got up and stuggled to Es Vive to meet Barbie, TMT (it was his birthday), Jon, Becki and friends. Also met Glasgow Chick adn macdonsj. very nice to meet you both. Hope you enjoy your week!!
Had a few bottles of wine and left them all to go off to Renaissance and went home to bed.
Friday: Spent the day by the pool and then decided to give Jule's restaurant Kasbah a go before heading off to airport for flight home. Have to say I was very disappointed with a lot of things at Kasbah and I wont be rushing back. Back to London (very cold!!!!) late on Friday night.
Good to meet all the usual people and all the new people from the board. Sorry I didnt get a chance to chat more but dont think right in front of the speakers on the Terrace at Space is a great place to try and get a conversation going!!
