Pirates of the good ship Team Adventure

Sometimes the internet shows humanity in its purest form, a humanity that struggles against wrong regardless of the cost. For too long this evil has been ignored, waylaid and unreported. Bravely, the people at this site have started the fight.

I, for one, stand with them. Shoulder to shoulder. To fight against a true evil. I hope you do too.

Well, what a weekend. Myself, Juanine and Tonto went to Edinburgh to see the Kings of Leon. More about that later however. We got there on Sunday and went out that same night, first to an excellent bar called Opium and then (for about 15min) to an OK bar called Espionage. The night started well, although Andrew was drinking and so occassionaly looked possessed....



This is a photo of Andrew later in the night, he had WAY TOO MUCH Aitchtoo Whoa by this stage:



We had a gurning competition that night. I lost. This was my pathetic best:



Also I was boring:



The girls got on so well together that they decided to form an "all girl band". Now I've never heard of such a thing before... But if it's what I'm thinking then maybes we're in for a treat!



Then the Jagermeister ladies came along and I purchased some. Which meant Andrew was PWNED and Frances was Kooky:




The next day was so very warm. I kept up the tradition of a posing photo (usually the task of Face):



We went to Holyrood Park, which is just delightful. WE were the CONVERSE CREW:



Then Juanine got mad at Tonto. Juanines fiery latin temperament meant a bullet in Tontos head!



Luckily Tonto survived. Somehow the bullet missed her brain entirely.

Andrew leads the way, following the call of the Rachel Siren. Also the building in the background is the one where they live!



Juanine found religion over there, she is now a Mexican Muslim. I don't know either. Here she is reading the Koran. I'm getting worried... First Face, now Juanine is converted to the teachings of Mohammed:



And I guess that thats about all I'm going to write about this trip. I'm very tired right now, so I might update this in the coming days to make more sense / better fun. Until then it'll have to do.

Also, there's a reward for anyone who figures out the message that both Andrew and Tonto were trying to give me over the weekend. I'm confused...



And please dont forget to check Tontos blog for some more excellent pictures please!

Yesterday the Sunday of the June bank holiday, the team had a little day out in Dublin. I met B.A. first and we went to the newly reopened Bewleys on Grafton Street. It was VERY NICE. Although she took a long time to eat her food and so we were late meeting Face (eek!). Hannibal, as always, was LATE. So here are BA and Face in Diceys Garden, early in the day:



BA gave out to me for a bit, claiming that I only put "bad" pictures of her up here. She sulked even!



So without hesitation I give you this picture, the Official Regal Portrait of Princess Emma of the Universe, it is her gazing into the distance, thinking of how lucky her subjects are:



Then Hannibal came along. His FIRST act was an attempt to steal my phone! See the sneaky look in my direction? That was MOMENTS before he pocketed my phone! I was flabberghasted!



I then punished him severley. I won't go into details, but this is his face AFTERWARDS:



Face then went silent for a few moments. We were initially a little worried:



Little were we to know that she was going to serenade BA! "Wheeeeeennn the moooooon hits your eye...."



I was overwhelmed by Faces voice of an angel and listened with all my ears...



Now on a serious note, the day was absolutely brilliant. We all got on really really really well, and here is a photo of the happiness (and don't they look so very very pretty?)



So, I certainly hope that we have many more days like yesterday. Many, many, many more.
