Arctic Monkeys...
It's well worth watching until the end of this video. Mental illness is a terrible thing...
Aerobatics!

Pretty soon (when the weather sorts itself out) i'll be taking one of these out and doing some aerobatics in it. The Robin 2160 Aerobatic Trainer is a seriously nice aircraft. Three hours of spinning, ballistic climbs, loops and god knows what else. I'm really looking forward to it. Hopefully I wont feel the need to fill the sick bag mid-loop though.

Allan's 25th in Auckland...

We all went up to Auckland for Allan's birthday last week and I can honestly say I don't think i've had such a good time in years. The friday night was sufficiently debauched to satisfy even me and the following Saturday was spent at Auckland city zoo. So much fun. Anyway, Penger seems to have a cube on his head for some unknown reason in this photograph. I'm as confused as the rest of you...

Five Below...

This photo was taken in this cool little bar in Auckland called Five Below. The entire place is made out of ice, even the bar, glasses, sculptures and walls. You are only allowed thirty minutes in there due to health and safety laws which is pretty funny. By the end of our time in there I was whinging like a little girl whilst the Scottish lass was made of stronger stuff and told me to pull myself together and act like a man. Which was somewhat hurtful. Those ice straws really chap your lips...

12,000 miles from home...

Had a nice surprise a while back when Gillian decided to pay a visit. We spent the evening in Auckland trying to find some nightlife (easier said than done on a Monday night) and had dinner at the top of the Sky Tower. The restaurant revolves through three hundred and sixty degrees so you have an incredible view whilst you eat.
