I feel bad.

Since I posted that picture of Mitchy that was, shall we say not entirely flattering, here is another.


Believe it or not it was the first time I ever clapped eyes on her, although I didn't take the picture- I'm not a stalker you know. Honest. It was Amber wot did it! Isn't Mitchy pretty though?

Wife to be.

Just so you all know who to look out for on our wedding day, this is Mitch:


Isn't she pretty? The photo is courtesy of Amber, who can be found entertaining us all at the link ambertines on the right hand side. Thanks Amber!

Oh and I should note that that's not a mask she's wearing, okay? Honest.

Hmm, what to do?


So, I poisoned my finger. What do I do? Do I prick it and squeeze it all out or leave it? No prizes for guessing what Mitch would have me do eh sweetie?! Seriously though, I need guidance. And be warned I may post the pictures up depending on the consensus...

It's a real test for us...

Then BAM!



As good as that clip is (I may have watched it, oh about 75 times or so), I think it would have been bettered only if Peter Martin was doing the commentary on the tv like this.

Click on the link posted 12/09/2007 23:57:10 and listen to his reaction to McFadden's goal. Probably safe to say that was the reaction of most Scots listening/watching the game.

Airblade vs. Trezeguet.

I was going to post about how the Dyson Airblade changed my life, but it all seems to pale into insignificance next to this:


David after France humping us 5-0 last time we played em in France.


David after Wee Jim's goal.

In time honoured Scots tradition, there is only one thing for it. Trezeguet, GIRUY! A bad loser is usually accepted, a bad winner almost never. Except now! Ah schadenfreude, why are you so good to me?

Serious question.

Is this the breakfast of kings?



It is a serious question! I had it this morning and I haven't eaten so well since yesterday at Blah Blah Blah on Goldhawk Road. I wish I had taken my camera with me- Mitch and I had the best meal I've eaten since the week before in Zippy's cafe a few doors down. Who knew of the culinary delights that awaited me in Shepherd's Bush?

So back to the question- breakfast of kings, aye or naw? If naw, I need an alternative. The closest I can think of is porridge with Nutella. I call it the Auld Alliance breakfast du jour.
