Tim and Gend rule ..

Ive just returned from Austria, where i went in "team mum" capacity to cheer Gee and Rach . Cp and i even made signs ! It was 25 euros and 45 minutes of cardboard and ribbon frenzy but i think it was worth it , i have been threatening to do it for years . I forgot to take a single picture which is very unlike me but we did end up on the dirt website .. not looking my best but heh, you cant win them all !




2 days of solid rain , 5 billion jaegerbombs and fun times,austria party followed by a stop for what can only be described as a "danger cycle" we headed to the red bull student conference where we were to present what we do to about 150 new student brand manager recruits . Only hitch in the plan was that i got flu ! Two days of lying in bed only to get out to do my presentation and roll my eyes at the carnage happening outside my room (no luck, i was in the room beside the bar !)

So anyway we did the usual when we were there and filmed a music video with the kids - a favourite of mine 'Together in Electric Dreams' by the Human league.

After a week in the mountains all i can think of is . God i MISS snowboarding ! Im really excited about it this year - I managed 6 weeks in 0607 and only 3days last year , such as my schedule went . Oh well, i have 4 weeks left to take this year so im plotting holidays with heather this weekend . i want to go to Bali in november for a wee surf and then morzine for hogmonay and new year. Sweet jesus, i cant wait . Im thinking as funds are the purps /blue outfit combo shall live to fight another year !


Talking of the soon to be ultrafamous and lending mee a tenner pals .. this is still my favourite music video of their ever ..

Meet Jim Lightening !

WOO HOO . I just bought joe a brother .. and he was cheeeeeap on ebays ! again ! woo hoo ! He wont look like this when im finished with him . He'll look even better !

summers over ..

Usually this time of year is when we start to think about snow and about the end of summer. Since we didn't actually have one i shouldn't be sad about the changing season but i am ! gutted . Also, my whole office has come down with some type of man flu which i seem to have contracted, gutted x 2 !
Another reason to be sad is that after 4 months in cinemas sex and the city is nowhere to be seen and i am thoroughly disappointed that i didnt manage to go see it.

Maybe its "the recession" that's making me miserable ?! Ill never claim to be an expert on such things but it seems to be an utterly self fulfilling prophecy on many accounts. The media tell us how bad it is and we stop spending and everyone pees their pants about it . Anyway, i went out an bought some rad patent heeled brogues in protest at the recession today . that'll teach you Gordon Brown .

amsterdammed

I went to amsterdam. Saw 2 fixed gears which is 1 less than the number of steaks i ate . It was so nice to get away , ive been grounded for so long i've felt like concorde. Rose wine, cappys, bikey times , pottering in rad, super well organised vintage shops . Es bueno.

oh .. and i met a new bikey friend ! We had fun !
