Time flies by...

When you're the driver of a train.... (name that tune ;-)

It also flies by when you're me, apparently... no excuses for the lack of updates nothing interesting to report, really...

January was Snowboarding - a week in a Chalet in Alpe d'Huez - excellent fun, and my home-made snowboard repairs held up well to the abuse. Here's Stu, Me, Lori and Muppet (the gay skiing one..) on top of a mountain.



After that most of Feb was spent in detox... it's a wonder any of us survived a week of free wine in the chalet, and Desperados on tap in the local (by the pint!)

The Ides of March passed by once more, and I made it to the ripe (old) age of 31 on St Patrick's Day. Which I celebrated with mexican food, margaritas, desperados, much real ale, tequilla, and a solo rendition of 'The Wild Rover', performed with a (drink induced) swagger akin to the scruffy Gallagher, strolling thru the pub tables, mic in hand, like a glorified lounge singer. I followed up with a Guinness (or 2) and claimed my (now customary) hat.

April is upon us - and thoughts of holidays - booked to go to Mexico for 3 weeks, on a Mayan Adventure :D We'll travel thru the country taking in beaches, volcanoes, cities and Mayan ruins... should be enough material there for me to start posting some interesting pictures again.

Gig-wise it's been quiet - caught Jerry Bewley (guitarist with Kangaroo Moon) in the 'hive for an entertaining evening. Next up is Anna Page an old school freind of a mate of mine - scheduled neatly for the pre-easter Thursday booze up - should be a messy night ;) Oh - and got tickets for the glade festival - can't wait.
