I taught Matt how to duel with banjos (again - well, guitars) at this year’s stunning “Damo’s Bonza Coast Party”. Big up to Dr & Mr K for tolerating us, and to the big “banana oops” DK himself for not soiling his trousers and giving us all a great party. Gem’s “organised fun” went down a treat last night and we’ve all since returned happy & exhausted. Couple of more pics, of Matt & DK burning absinthe (and not chasing the dragon, no matter how much it may seem that way, and of a beachy sunset, on my flickr photostream - all taken with my flash new Sony DSC-T7 camera.
Many others on good form, including Tant Pis and “you don’t want to know what I’ve just googled” Applegate, and Robin “Bum Charades is a real game” Sims-Williams. Was a stellar weekend.
…had a good one, although knackered now. Guys and Dolls on Friday was awesome (Mr McGregor has some mad skills) and the party at Vik & Farrah’s was awesome (thanks!), if I didn’t sing as much as I’d like. Make your own pizza - what a concept!
Going to be a busy week, but linklog will be maintained if not the main blog. Have a good one, all!
Had a great few days away in Bordeax with Gem and her family. Here’s super-me enjoying some fine medoc on the edge of the beach, whilst eating some fine merguez covered pizza and enjoying Gem’s company… and trying to ignore the monster truck smash going on next door (which entertained me secretly).
P’raps more on this later. Montalivet is a fun part of the world, although BA, having lost my bag (don’t worry, they eventually found it… so much for quick check-in), are phenomenally incompetent.
Apologies for poor exposure, my digicam is on the blink…
Arvind did the London Triathlon today, which was very impressive. Whilst his swimming time wasn’t fantastic, his cycling and running were both good, and he was still (just about) standing at the end of it. V proud of him.
If you want to support Arvind’s fundraising efforts - the money he raised from sponsorship goes to arthritis research - click here.

Quick, get me out of this wet… suit.
I want to ride my bicycle, I want to ride my bike.
One with the speed force
Minor, inconsequential rant, but I find myself annoyed by Friendster’s constant emails telling me people I vaguely know have updated their blogs.
Given that blogs are now appearing at the rate of one per second according to Technorati (a dubious source, I suspect), its difficult to care about anyone’s blog unless they have compelling content (mine really doesn’t, in case you think I thought that much of myself…) or you know/like the person.
I aim to be liked, and those spammers over at Friendster clearly don’t… At least they’re not likely to end up dead, though.
