fuck's sake, i'm trying to be all deep and moody and shit with the irish poetry and spend fucking forever lining it up and getting it centred and all that shit and would you look at the way it ends up with the spacing all wrong and no gaps where i've been fucking insisting there should be gaps and me sitting here wondering why the fuck i'm not in bed.
i'm handwriting everything from now on, even my replies to comments.

In fairness though, did the poem suffer too much from the formatting?
*realises the logistical complexities of handwriting every response*
um, no I suppose not really but I do believe that a poem should be put the way a poet intended it to be and that is not how Davitt wanted that poem to look. I couldn't even get it to put a gap betweent he original and the translation, which was very irksome at the time.
I couldn't get my hand written reply to appear on screen so it's in the post.
bloggers automatic formatting drives me nuts- especially when I'm adding photos. grr. why doesn't it just do wat we tell it to do?
Lottie - I'll look forward to it.
Red - yeah, it's even fucking worse for photos, isn't it?
I guess this is why those folks on Wordpress feel all superior, because I don't see anything else that makes it better.
Happy Birthday btw!
Andrew, is it your birthday? Happy Birthday!
Aye, it was. Cheers guys.
