not the lakes

Sunday, November 20th, 2011

So I know I said I’d put up some more pictures of the lake district but instead I went to Cornwall so suck this picture into your eyes and hopefully enjoy it and if not then leave a comment saying why you hate me and I’ll definitely care.

BOOOM!  CORNWALL!

Laters dudes.

testing one two

Sunday, October 2nd, 2011

Went out with my new pin hole camera this morning to take some photos. I’d forgotten two things.

1.) You don’t get instant results with film. I want to see the pictures but I can’t! Argh! I wonder if Asda will process it…
2.) I’ve got a new computer so I can’t bloody scan the results anyway! Double argh!

Luckily I had my little Leica with me so I could at least do something when I got home! It also gives me something to compare the pinhole shots against.

super nerd land

So these things arrived at work and they are all shiny and make noises like a jet plane.

Nerd-o-tron

Inside these is some magic and some 96 gigglebytes of memories and 32 processoids. I don’t know how they work or what they do but luckily it’s not my job to look after them. Oh wait, yes it is.

I’m told they contain a thing called eunuchs or more accurately l-eunuchs which is like eunuchs but with an l in it. I’m also told typing rm -rf * is the right way to login. If you’re still reading this and you know what that means you are a mega nerd, congratulations.

this is good right?

I mean, how could this be bad. Text, drop, crunch. Steel yourself. Lift from concrete. Sigh.
OH BUGGER!!!!!!

BIG SIGH. oh well…. I love giving Steve Jobs money because he needs it to buy jumpers and socks and things.

crack pipe

Friday, December 31st, 2010

What you really want to happen when you have a Christmas hangover and it’s just above freezing is for a pipe in an outside toilet to split and fire a jet of ice cold water all over the place.

What you also want is to forget that there is a stop tap in the house and so try to fix it with the jet of water still spraying out directly in your face like some sort of sadistic winter crowd control method, eventually ending up as if you’d jumped in a river of freezing cold water and are absolutely soaked to the bone.

Then and only then will you remember the stop tap and turn off the water…. Oh and you want to be on a water meter as well… Good times.

burst pipe

Anyway, seaons greetings and a Happy New Year to everyone! Hope 2011 is fabulous.

may contain mayonnaise

Monday, November 22nd, 2010

So I’m eating food in a pub and I go to put some mayo on it – as you do… Yummy mayo.

A quick glance warns me that this is no ordinary mayonnaise as it appears to be at risk of containing almost every other foodstuff imaginable – what on Earth kind of factory is this stuff made in?!

Mayonnaise

In other news, I’ve got loads of photos from the Lake District to share, so watch this space. Here is a cow to start you off!!!
