Teasing Star a little bit…

So, I’m currently working on some fencing in one of the fields near the back of the dale, and afterwards we usually bring the cows in around 3:30PM for milking. One afternoon I decided that I’d put my work gloves on the cows horns, just to see if I could….

So we now have  a cow that looks a little bit like a Moose or Reindeer. She doesn’t seem hugely impressed….

I tried last summer with my hat in Botton Farm, on one of their cows (Cherry) but she didn’t really do anything exciting, and the hat didn’t fit on her head…

Random amusing

Before I became a biologist I was studying a BSc in Aircraft Maintainance in the International Centre for Aerospace Training (ICAT) in Cardiff Airport. Some mates and I were in cardiff after lectures, going to the Somali consolate or embassy or similar (one was Somalian). We were in the lift and these 2 guys got in, one said to the other "meet Skipper, he's studying in ICAT." I was like how the crap does he know that? Have I met him before? Then I realised I was still wearing my ID card :)

Left Over From June

Finally got around to uploading this video Wendy and I made in June while we were driving up from Wales to Yorkshire.

The song is from Portal 2, called Want You Gone, I give no spoilers as to the ending

:edit: Due to PicasaWeb not having an “embed” feature… I’ve got to just give you the link:

From 2011-06 Driving from Wales

Halo: ODST–My favourite character–Virgil

Everyone knows Halo.. Its one of the greatest games of the 21st century. The 4th (Actually the 5th, but Halo Wars doesnt count) instalment of the game was Halo ODST, which took the timeline between Halo 2 and Halo 3, as an ODST, or Orbital Drop Shock Trooper (Mouthful huh?). You have to fight through the city of New Mombasa against the combined forces of the Covenant… death and hilarity ensues. Anyway, there is a character, that is the cities Artificial intelligence, known as the superintendent, or Virgil. You dont really see much of Virgil in the game, except in cutscenes, load screens and at the end.. but he’s quality and so cute!

Anyways, here are his little faces from the load screens and cut scenes:

Kalula Airlines: Rather awesome livery

I was sent this by my mother and thought it was rather amusing:

Amusing things from my phone….

On my travels my phone and camera never leave my side, as a result I’ve accumulated a few pictures I find rather amusing, I therefore decided to share them with anyone who is interested.
Here they are:

The bit to note here: The more you spend… the more free tiles you get! ….. Isnt that… in general…. the theory behind purchasing things… The more money you spend the more you get? So no… they’re not free… they just cost a bit less… Anyway

This is totally bizarre…Seen outside a sweetshop in Redcar, North Yorkshire (Well, Redcar and Cleveland) Ho Ho Ho Happy Easter?!
