Limmy's World of Glasgow
It's a bit embarrassing, but, Limmy asked me if he could get his picture taken with me, so, here you go, Limmy. It was nice to meet you and hope you enjoyed me watching your show on Saturday night.
Just got back from it - me and Sharlene and Steve and Ryan Man went through to Glasvegas. Most excellent. It got even funnier the more we talked about it in the car on the way home.
Well done, Limmy. Excellent work. Double Take was brilliant.
Check out Limmy's big spooky hand, too.

Zidane!
Yes, I've just learned how to put YouTube things on my Blog.
Still worth a look this, though.

Pixar's zoetrope
Go along and see the Pixar exhibition. I've said it before already but, here we go again, it's brilliant.
I had a wee search on t'internet and found this cool movie of Pixar's zoetrope. Click on the still image above to see the movie. It's 4.5Mb in size, but hey, everyone has broadband these days. Except Newtongrange.

Plasticine to clay
Calvin has started making larger models from clay.
We went to the Early Learning Centre and bought him 2.5kgs 'air hardening' clay. He made an elephant to start with and has now made another one which is about 20cm long.
The image included here is the second elephant he made. He's still getting used to the differences between Plasticine and clay but, when he's cool with it, he's going to be a star!
Pixar exhibition
Brilliant!
We all went along on Saturday to the Chamber Street museum where Pixar have an exhibition on off their work. It's fantastic. Go along and see real art. None of that 'junkies bed' or 'shopping trolley full of dog turds' rubbish that wins the Turner Prize.
Totally blown away by everything.
Calvin thought the models of all the character faces, fish, superheros, cars and toys etc was very interesting and has started making some from clay now, too.
Go and see it all. Now.

That's a Weight of his Mind.
I've not checked the Guinness Book of Records yet, but, pound for pound, I think this is the biggest turd that has ever been passed. Poor wee guy, saving this one up for months I reckon. He's now half the size he was before he took this massive toof.
Sharlene will need to clean out the tank when he nips that one. It looks like a conger eel.

I'm a dirty Pro.
Yeah, me and Ryan Man are now PGA Level 1 golf coaches. We are the best of the best of the best of the best.
We did a pretty intesive course last Saturday and Sunday at Silverknowes golf club and passed the final individual coaching test. We're brilliant, yeah!
If you want a free lesson, it'll cost £50 per hour. But that does come with a value of £75.
