Welshrogue

I couldn’t think of a cooler title than that…

After Wales Air Ambulance saved her life, rally car driver Nicola Parker decided to do something to thank the service. She decided to create a calendar and with the help of a few of her fellow drivers, has produced the Gravel Girls 2007 Calendar. The calendar, designed to emulate the (in)famous WI calendar that was the subject of the movie, Calendar Girls, features 16 up and coming girl racers in various poses, with their modesty preserved by strategically placed items.

A fun calendar that features real women as compared to skinny, starved and air brushed models that gives to a good cause. Can’t do any better than that.

The Gravel Girls 2007 Calendar

My wife makes my fingers sticky.

I can’t believe what a dirty mind you people have.

Yesterday, along with my parents, we ate at a restuarant and I ordered a chicken and ribblet basket. Now I don’t normally got for foods that are messy, I guess because I don’t like to get messy. I am sure that its something in my head that I don’t want to appear messy in front of people (or in private come to that) but with my wife sat across from me, I tucked into the ribblets. My wife makes me not worry about the silly things in my head and helps be try and enjoy things that I haven’t tried before, such as ribs.

My wife makes me forget that I don’t like getting sticky fingers and allows me to enjoy a great meal instead.

My personal favourite songs in rough order simply because each means a lot to me!

How many times do you watch a TV commercial and find yourself tapping your foot along with the music, or worst still, singing along with the lyrics you suddenly find bouncing around your head? Well if you want to find out what you have been listening to go visit http://www.songtitle.info/

A great site that I have used for several years to get to the bottom of which songs are constantly in my head.

Moonraker – Shirley Bassey

James Bond in space! Jumping on the science fiction bandwagon of the late 70s, Moonraker takes Bond to a place he hadn’t been before. Considering that there were no computer graphics, the space scenes look amazing, especially the battle. There are some great stunts, including the cable car scene. Its a good movie with everything that a Bond fan would want.
