Stats? What stats?


Changed my Blog template a few months ago and forgot to move my statcounter code over, boo hiss. However it is now back at the bottom of the page. You can click the view stats link to see all manner of tosh such as where visitors came from and the like. Such as our texan friend who dropped by on the 3rd of May. Or Jivetoaster, oh yes, I see you.

Lick it.

Horror Stricken Hell Bus


There I was sitting on the bus. Unwittingly aware of just how petrifyingthe journey was about to become. I noticed the girl in front of me flinch then lean heavily to the side away from the window. Whats this thought I, what could have repelled her so much, could she have caught a glimpse of my reflection in the window? Nay, nay and thrice nay! It was a tropical beast, marching along the pane. Its destination, one only, me. I sat transfixed with terror as it tootled up to my very sleeve then turned its gimlet eyes upon me. How long I sat transfixed by its stark gaze I will never know. My bowels had turned to water but I was frozen in place. Aghast at this monsters cruel visage. Then it turned and walked on. It had judged and found me wanting. Perhaps another day this fiends path and mine might cross. For now though, I am safe.

Jingle Bells



The Glasgow cuckoo! Caught on film for the first time. Like a shy woodland creature he ventures from his burrow sniffing the air for predators. I take the picture clandestinely, lest he turns and charges at me with his fearsome jingly bell hat.

Go on, LICK IT!!!


Its the mama and the papa disgracing themselves in front of their second born.

SNP Injection



Thats right Miss Sturgeon i am watching you. Like a bat in the night, my sonar is bouncing off your shiny suit.

Thievery!!!


Whats this!! Just as we near the bank we encounter this random scally who attempts to steal our doubloons and groats. 'Begone with you turgid scally' I cry, 'lest i show you the business end of my blunderbuss!

Access all Areas


More free hat antics. I know its cruel to bedeck a freshly shorn sheep in various items of Corona garb. I can assure everyone though that the sheep was returned safely to her paddock at the end of the night.

The bell strikes corona


What a nick, clutching my corona goods tightly, wandering through the night. Is this what i have been reduced to? Still at least I am safe from the blackguards and vagabonds dressed in such garb. They will welcome me as one of their own.

The signs are dark


Its the ICT social commitee dinner/drinks thing tonight. Didnt realise it was in gotham city?

Subcrawl Video

Well the subcrawl was hell on earth. Actually it was not bad but it hurt to drink an I suffered all day. Therefore photos of the event were a little sparse however I did make a video of the event! It is a hell of a lot better with sound :o)

Subcrawl 2007

Beaky and the Blue boys


William pecks for grain as the Blue boys sup forlornly at their drinks

Sub crawling fear


The day of the sub crawl. I feel like i have been punched with a hippo. I am so ruff its like someone has filled a badger full of nails and beaten me with it. I need the zantac to quell the heaving nausea, the sudafed to open up my miserly airways and the double expresso to give me some jazz. I could cry at the thought of another drink.

Rise of the Machines


Skynet is here! The insane air jet machines are taking over. Seriously this thing blows air out faster than a hooker can palm a twenty!!

Inky dink dink


Johann shows off her new tattoo. Apparently it means 'tread lightly water bear'

Unholy soul theft


Yes its me! On the pan!

Odd looking guitar?


I suppose my guitar case has other uses then!

Aw!


My wee dudes are staying at mine this weekend. The poor things are a tad traumatised by the whole affair and have just been hiding since they got here. Still cant feel to sorry for them as they ripped me apart when i was forcing them into the pet carrier. Hissing huffy bstarts!

Giant Building!!!


Its a big building shot!! Woohoo, shot it with about 9 different pics and used CS3's groovy new merge and blend function. Phwoaar!
Update: Chuffing flip, blogger has donwsized the image so you cant see it in all its four foot by three glory, boo blogger boo!

Kings Lodge Stodge


I dont usually do the all you can eat buffet nonsense but for the first time in many moons i did tonight. Oh woe is me. All went well until i chewed an oddly textured piece of chicken in my curry. I swallowed it (stupidly) and inspected the other half still on my plate, it was feckin raw! I complained to the nearest staff member who nodded then swiflty whisked it away. Concerned for the other diners i checked if anything had been done about it 10 minutes later. I was assured that they were going to replace the trough of hoaching salmonella with a fresh batch. 15 minutes later and still nothing. Quite disgraceful. Still hadnt changed it when i left and i suspect they had no intention of doing so. Yech i feel an ominous rumbling.

Nightmare on Hope St


Johnny Police were completely stymied when they had to deal with a thin plywood sign falling off a building. I am surprised that the army were not called in.

Is it March?


Dull few hours in work livened up somewhat by a nice cheery march. Cmon the marchers!!!

Finally!


The bridge building is complete and we return to base. Astoundingly we have all done so well that each team is rewarded with a bottle of the finest cava in the land.

The Bridges Part 3


Team Amazing show off the unbridled fury of 'The Turntable'. Not only is this bridge incredible in its complexity it also has a rope pulley system with which you can see our barrel glides over with no human intervention. alright then perhaps a little bit. In fact a giant bit!

The Bridges Part 2


Don, William, Lekan and Tony the Marathon Man complete their 'swayback' design and hoik a body over.

The Bridges Part 1


Rhona, Fiona, Mary C and Kerry complete this sturdy platform with a cunning cross rope suspension for the washing.

Sunny Loch Lomond


The dudes taking a well earned rest in the sun after our successful ten out of ten token finding antics. Don and William despondently kick themselves after being trounced by Team Amazing.

Oxygen please!


After our successful token pilfering we tumble all the way down. Narrowly avoiding broken ankles and twisted knees. Quick tab of a K to base. Hurrah!

Take me Higher!


Its team building day and myself and the G-Man climb up a giant hill to find a token for our bridgebuilding task.

It could hardly call itself a Madonna party without a black Jesus now could it.

Jowls of Laughter


As you can see I outdid myself with my costume! The lovely Carol showing of her splendidly blackened teeth.

Eroteec!
