I'm Back!

Well, that's me back in the bosom of Mother Edinburgh. Place of my birth, land of my forefathers, home of my loved ones, scenery of my life, position of my physical presence... Etc etc etc. Continue ad nauseum...

The only thing that I found to be unpleasant was watching Scotland get humped 37-17 at rugby, by a bunch of Italians who looked like a big bunch of jessies, whilst two extremely large and vicious looking Engerland fans made remarks about Scotland being the worst team in the six nations. (Fortunately Engerland were later pumped 43-13 by the Irish team and I sat basking in the sunshine when an entire pub full of Irish took the piss out of the two, very lonely and depressed, Engerland fans.)

The rest of the time In Ireland was as nice as it could possibly be. Angie, my dad and I went drinking, went to a race meet and generally tooled around enjoying each others company. I displayed my remarkable talent for losing bets, my dad showed his coolness by not getting all clinchy when I rolled a joint in front of him and Angie showed us both a great time.

This weeks Listening...

It's been a quiet week in music for me. I've not had my MP3 player on much during my travels and whenever I've been in the house lounging around in my shorts I've either been reading, watching TV or reading a book.

I did however manage to listen repeatedly to the following albums.

• Barry White - All Time Greatest Hits.
• Buddy Holly - Gold.
• Van Morrison - Astral Weeks.
• Nick Drake - Pink Moon.
• Guns and Roses - Use your Illusion.
• The Pogues - The Ultimate Collection.

I've also created a couple of nice ringtones for my phone from sounds file I found floating around on't 'tinternet. The first one is a Honda RCV211V on warm up and the second one is a minute long Tardis in flight sound. Feel free to grab a copy of either by clicking the links.
