On my way back down to earth after the Hennessy Awards! No bouncy castles but lots of brandy cocktails in round glasses with very short straws! Congratulations to the winners and esp to Madeleine D'Arcy the overall winner, who did a fantastic job when she was brought to the front of the stage and interviewed about her story while still recovering from the shock of winning. My highlight was meeting Paula Meehan - I was a bit starstruck (if thats the right word when meeting your favorite poet) to talk to properly. Will write a post later when I've finally landed.
