I'm not sure when James and I are likely to be in Latvia at the same time, but if it ever happens I'll keep my eyes peeled.

You're both just making fun of this country, which is so far away from anything related to manics, and of me who is also a sad fan getting excited even about getting to know such small facts as what kind of coffee they do or don't drink..., aren't, you?

We're not making fun of you and really you never do know. They might visit your lovely country one day. I always say to fans in other countries think positive, they did do Singapore etc so who knows?

They've already been to Latvia! The beautiful Positivus Festival on the Baltic Coast. Worlds most stunning festival location - FACT.

I can't honestly remember. They did that Ballroom venue place in New York once but can't remember when that was.

NO! Well, maybe a little bit about the latte thing...

I loved Latvia, I really want to go back. But in the winter next time.

Agreed. I have never enjoyed any festival as much! It was so nice, I loved hanging out on the beach and the hammock zone was amazing. Latvia =

Also it was really funny when we left before the end of Tolerate cus we were so (pointlessly?) scared of missing the last festival bus, haha.

I still liked the fact it was just as Nicky was just coming down the front to do the shouty pointy (ish) bit when we all evacuated the front row. Possibly the funniest thing since missing the doors at Gwyl Macs and then all going on some crazy run to the barrier while the 50 or so people actually in the cattle shed just highly bemused.

Or when you me and Sam had the weird three person barrier fight over literally cms in an otherwise empty Wembley Arena in 2004 - we are so cool Hanna.
