A friend of mine recently setup her own Story book/Scrap book business. Now it all sounded rather girly to me, but after viewing some examples and finding out that scrap booking was not just some paper and glue i decided to have one made up. I had recently come back from a trip to Toronto and had a loads of photos just sitting around, this seemed like the perfect way to display my them. I’m pretty rubbish when it comes to making things look pretty and cutting stuff out, so i asked Amanda to design the inside for me. I gave her a rough idea of what i wanted and a few lines to go under specific pictures.
While i know I’m slightly biased i would seriously recommend anyone who has a bunch of pictures from a holiday or just a general collection of pictures to have ago at this. The quality is brilliant, the look and feel of the books are up to the same standard as a high quality photo album. I will try and follow up with some good photos of the books.
Details on how to contact her to follow.

As some of you might know and for some bizarre reason even to my self i decided i would go to Download Festival this year (Pretty girl said it would be cool). This was my very first festival EVER and i think it’s safe to say i was more then little nervous especially as i was pretty much going on my own. I have to admit i almost pulled out, i only new one other person going and she was there with her own friends. So about three weeks before the festival i found out that Guitar Hero will be making an appearance on the 2nd stage over the whole weekend. Fantastic, i throw my hand up before the words had even finished coming out of the mouth of my boss. Why had my pre festival nerves gone all of a sudden i hear you ask…well…VIP/STAFF access and all the beer i could drink plus sharing a camping area with the security was a much added safety bonus, perfect.
So after arriving and finding the patch of grass we would call home for the next few days we set up camp, still a bit unsure if we were in fact in the right place, what with being the only ones in the field. The image above, beer can in hand would become a very common pose over the next 4 days. We sat out side our tents for awhile drinking beer pointing at all the freaks and holding the up most respect for women by quietly pointing out to each other who we “would” and “wouldn’t” while waiting for the queues to go down so we could enter.
Once we got in we all agreed that it was time for another beer before heading down to stage 2 to check out where we would be playing Guitar Hero later that night. After working out what we needed to do for that night we thought it was about time to grab another beer, little did they know i had been in constant contact with a girl since i arrived. With a fresh beer in hand i took it upon my self to leave the old guys behind and chill with my only friend at the festival all the while trying to ignore text messages from my boss asking ”Have you done her yet 
lol”.
I took in some of the sites, went on a tea cup ride, hand some more beer visited the real camp site where all the commoners where then after all that it was about time to hit the stage…ROCK ON!

To say my blog has been a long time coming would be a huge understatement. I first registered the domain back in 2003…nearly 5 years ago. I’ve created so many designs over the years but finally, I’ve found one i’m happy with. I can’t say i did this all on my own and this site would never have happened if it wasnt for the help i received, thanks to you all. Special thanks go out to Oliciv, Xeno, Nd, Philip Howard and mapcore.
I’m going to use this site for purely just blogging and whatever mindless thoughts fill my head. Don’t take everything you see here seriously. I will try to update my blog on a regular basis…but we will see how it goes ;).
A lot has happened recently so expect a flurry of posts in the next week or so. That’s about all i have for the moment, please comment and let me know what you think of the site.
