iPhone Album: Song 2

Wednesday, September 30th, 2009

No not the Blur Song! But the next addition to my song making exploits using my iPhone along with the FourTrack app. This one is a cover of ‘Sunny Afternoon’ by The Kinks. Funny story behind this one.

During the summer there I was at my good mate Andy’s stag do in Benidorm. I ended up going up on stage and singing Karaoke. First time I have ever done it. It was this song and I was bloody awful. So much so that the MC butted-in half way through and said “No taking the piss please!”.

I can safely say I wasn’t taking the piss. I might have been pissed, but I was still trying my hardest.

Here is an attempt to redeem myself and show the lads that I ain’t normally that bad. Ok, ok. I’m still bad. But not as bad as that night. Have a gek:

Sun, Stag and Shape

This will be me

In a few months 20 odd guys and myself will be hitting Benidorm for Andy’s Stag Doo. I’m really looking forward to it. It will be absolute madness no doubt. I really can’t imagine being on a plane with 20/30 guys and then being in an all inclusive hotel.

Lets just think about that. Free drink, free food and several rowdy blokes. OUCH! There going to need to stock up for us coming.

So. On April 17th we hit the Flamengo Benidorm Apartments. And, inevitability, when you’re going to the sun you start to worry about the prospect of your belly hanging over your swimming shorts. As of tomorrow I will be on a mission to lose pounds and get in shape. Not just for the stag do, but also for the forthcoming year. I am generally fit and healthy as I go to the gym 4 or 5 times a week, but my problem is that I binge eat and drink at the weekends. My requirements are that I will reduce the beer intake (Or drink more low calorie beer). No more Chinese or Indian Takeaways at the weekend. I’m going to push myself way out the comfort zone when going to the gym. If I stick to this for the next few months I’m sure I’ll feel more at ease in the sun.

Speaking of sun. Here is weather details for Benidrom.

Bring it on!

Its Been A While

Thursday, September 4th, 2008

Blog fever has hit the office this week where I work, and has put me in the mood to get back into it. Sorry its been a while. Been really busy with my own business lately, so I’ll use that as an excuse.

So, aye, Blog fever. Check out the Blogs a couple of my mates have started. Not as good as mine technically speaking (obviously), but I’m sure the chat will be far superior to mine.

Last month as been domineered by Stag do’s. First up was Darren’s. A mate from work. Darren, another 14 blokes and I went to St Andrews for a night. It was grand. But I was pissed. Beyond pissed. I’m talking riding a chained up bike and ringing the bike bell pissed.  Kinda annoyed me that I was so drunk and I think I have came to a conclusion of why this was so:

See. I’m on these tablets like. I’ll not tell you what they are for, but it does mention on the small print not to take them with alcohol. I just think they put those kind of warnings on tablets as a precaution.

So as an experiment at last weekends stag do, which was with my main man ‘The Badgers’ in Berlin, I decided not to take any tablets over the weekend. To my surprise I there was a noticeable difference. I was fine both nights. So I’m going to take heed in the future.

Here is a nice wee pic of the lads in a wee pub in Berlin.
