I’d just like to point your attention to a video that Cameron made this morning all on his own. I didn’t even know he’d done it until he called me to watch, so it was 100% his effort. I’d really appreciate it if you would watch it (it’s less than 20 seconds long) and leave [...]

Today is one week on from my first attempt at doing a pushup. Last Saturday I found www.hundredpushups.com and decided to take up the 6 week challenge of training to do 100 pushups in 6 weeks. Unfortunately my arms were even more feeble than I realised and I quickly faced the humbling experience of finding [...]

I’ve really had fun with this – such a simple thing to do but very effective. Wil took the shots on this one of me riding my scooter. When you’ve finished watching this grainy rubbish go see how great video and music are done by a pro. This vid of the surf at The Gold [...]

I’d just like to say, I’m a little uncomfortable with something I saw while looking at my blog dashboard this morning. Top Searches (ie: things people have typed into a search engine which have led them to my blog) What do you think might be top of the list? – ‘Foxsden’, ‘angry stuff’, ‘videos’, ‘ranting [...]

A couple of weekends ago Wil and I were down town on a Saturday morning. I can’t quite remember what we went down for but there must have been a good reason because going into town for either of us country dwelling hermit people is a chore. People in town are rude zombies who like [...]

I found a project in the Vimeo Forums which required you put together a 5×5 Vignette. That is, 5 video clips each 5 seconds long. This is my contribution to that project with clips I took in my garden over the last month or so.

I found this on Hoax Slayer as confirmed ‘true’. It’s about USED condoms that are being recycled and used under coloured thread to create hairbands! Although the thought of it is gross and the article labels it as ‘threatening to spread disease the condoms were made to prevent’ I really don’t think you have to [...]

Funny because when I wrote that heading I inadvertantly put dropped one of the ‘n’s which made it read ‘winer’ which also would have been an appropriate topic about Cam. However, I’m not going to pee on the boys chips today because he won best Desert On A Plate and I’m dead pleased for him. [...]

Given my dedication to keeping fit I should find it no problem launching myself into training for 5krun/23kbike/5krun, well that’s what I thought until I began running again and 15 minutes in to the ‘Hill Run’ program on my treadmill I got the achiest arms EVER. Both of my arms began to get a dull [...]

This was the best £1 I’ve spent for a while! I managed to stay on for about what seemed like 2 1/2 hours, with one hand while using the other to remove my hair from my lip gloss. CHA! – try about 30 seconds ending up on my back just in front of that man. [...]
