Ha ha!

Just coming home from the curry house and passed a Subaru wrapped around a lamp post. Titter!

Beep beep beep

Someone sent me this picture of the bus that was going to be used for the victorious Liverpool team to go through the city when they won the Champions League. Unfortunately they never got to use it.

The other week we went to the museum in Chamber Street. I forgot to put up some pictures from the trip and found these tonight.

Calvin and my mum got all dressed up in the costume section. Check out Calvin, still holding a set of keys so he can be like the caretaker Larry (Ben Stiller) in the film Night at the Museum.

Also, they've got a Dolly the sheep there too. I think it's the original, but, maybe it isn't the original original. I'm all confused.

Summer collection

Steve designed a cool t-shirt for a scateboarding shop in the Grassmarket called Focus.

He gave me a free shirt which, I don't doubt, I will for ever be in his debt.

Cheers Steve.

Diet takes a chouxing.

Sharlene has been practising making choux pastries. Yes! So we've had to suffer eating all these wee profiteroles recently.

As you can imagine, what a nightmare it's been.

Feeling sluggish.

Calvin made a new model today. He knocked out this wee slug from the film Flushed Away.

Champions League pizza

Look at the pizza delivery boys face as he had to deliver all this stuff when we went around to Steve's house for the big match.

Poor shuy.

Graffiti artist strikes again!

I've still not quite worked out what this guy in Newtongrange is protesting against, but, our little Banksy is certainly sticking it to the Man.

Evel Knievel

Lisa at my work wore her Evel Knievel jump-suit to work the other day. Smooth as.

These pics show her 'busy' at work and then, on the left, heading off home.

Me, Sharlene and Calvin

Me, Sharlene and Calvin, originally uploaded by afcteabag.

Here is a picture of me and the gang at the Pixar exhibition the other week. This post is really to test my FLickr account I've just started up. Fingers crossed this works and then I'll start doing stuff and that.

It's Tea Time.

Calvin made his first cup of tea for Sharlene at the weekend. Hot water and aw that.

All he needs to do now is learn to do the dishes and I'm redundant.

Calvin is now 12 years old!

Happy birthday big man. Deep voice, spots, big muscles and good looks. Just like his dad.

Thanks to everyone who got him presents. Cheers to Ryan Boy, Cameron, Nicola and Angie for making it out to Deer Park for the 10 pin bowling on Saturday afternoon. I think we all had the times of out lives.

And cheers to Sharlene's maw and paw for looking after Calvin on Saturday night. For some reason Calvin didn't want to spend his birthday staying in his own house and wanted to stay with Granny Marge and Granda Kenny. We can't help but feel slightly rejected.

Check out Cameron thinking it's his birthday, too!

Life is like a butterfly

Sharlene spotted this butterfly in the garden today and we managed to get a couple of photographs. after a little research it turns out that it's a male, Orange Tipped butterfly.

It's the first time we've seen a butterfly like this. It looks brilliant - the wings were amazingly vivid. It's a pity the photos don't do the wee guy justice.

Supposedly you don't see them too often in Scotland. Which just goes to show how smooth Newtongrange is.

Look ma, I'm on top of the world!

Played at Princes course on Friday with Ryan Man and Mark 'the shark' Wheeler.

Spot the difference competition II.

There are 3, possibly 4, but 5 at most, differences between the pictures on the left. Can you spot them and win a Smash Hits Yearbook?

Tough tackling midfielder dies.

Poor Alan Ball. My heart goes out to his family.

But he went the way he lived his life: sleeves rolled up; playing whole heartedly and tackling hard (even fires).
