the dream is alive. on Saturday I was recognised by someone I didn't know for doing the Banter 500. I was helping out at Megalife - that big Christian concert that happened in Moira on Saturday. When I was walking up the path, some guy pointed at me and shouted "Banter 500". i had never met or seen him before, and he wasn't standing with anyone that I knew at the time. He knew about my mullet, so I knew he was genuine. If my memory serves me correctly his name was Billy.
Later on that day, I was talking to a friend of mine (Nikki), whose friend that she was with had also been looking up the site. And if that wasn't enough, there is more.
As people were leaving, my friend Ruth came up to me and said to her 2 American friends "This is Jonny Kirk". it turned out that they had come across the site when looking for "have a picnic on a roundabout", as they were trying to do this (and have since accomplished on the malone road roundabout). later Ruth had told them that we were mostly based around Belfast, then on Saturday were introduced to me. they told me (sorry - I have forgotten your names!) that they have printed off the list, and are trying to do as many as possible. we were thanked for making their lives more exciting.
i couldnt sleep on Saturday night as I was too excited...
