People - some go overseas and some come back, and then they go again

To all my friends travelling at the moment - be safe & well - avoid earthquakes, riots, floods by - staying out of Melbourne - what's next a cyclone?

So he said "I'll never have to drink alone now..."

I wear cool shoes, so people notice them, and I notice cool shoes so I buy them.

It's magical in the city

Well what isn't there to love about a severed unicorn head with pool noodles spilling from it's throat, and WuTang & peace tattoos on it's neck ? If you can tell me I'll paint my own very hot replica of this on your torana bonnet*

*You need to own a torana to enter this competition!

We talk, laugh, then ride away for our sunday adventure... today we raced the last crit for the season at skcc - the team did very well, 6th, 8th, 11th & 12th, 15th and so on - must have been those dotty leggings that inspired us, or maybe a jenga tower of garibaldi? All in all - fun day out thanks for all the support.

Shutter speed on iphone is quicker than a F18!

DOH - now why did I get that tattoo

Off to the laser factory to get zapped again this thursday - believe me it hurts - sucks in fact... but if you wanna get the big tattoos you need to get rid of the little ones in the way - funny what you think 20 years later - probably wouldn't get a grim reaper & wizard if you paid me - get back to me when I'm 60 and we can take it from there...

Used & on my own

See all those people on the ground wasting time

I try to hold it all inside, but just for tonight

The top of the world, sitting here wishing

The things I've become, that something is missing

Maybe I... but what do I know

And now it seems that i have found

Nothing at all, I want to hear your voice out loud

Slow it down, slow it down, without it all

I'm choking on nothing, it's clear in my head

And I'm screaming for something

Knowing nothing is better than knowing at all

On my own

pola-what?

I don't even use one of these things to achieve these things....

Go MJ - run you good thing, run

So I was perched upon a bridge, contemplating what lay ahead, I had a race of my own to run, well ride - and just how long would I have to wait with vigilant eyes peeled and darting through the crowds of 'j'oggers to spot - MJ - that's even if I knew what she looked like in all her athletic apparel....... you'd be glad to know - she made it, I didn't spot her - but she had some company to keep her focused. 14km - freeway, bolte bridge, finishing tape - Good work MJ.

Twices Pisces

I've been tattooing so many Pisces peeps of late - weird -

Kick it

Lob + Cortez = cool -this guy knows how to kick it up with his kicks

Anita agrees with me... Amazing

The pinklady has spoken to me directly - these little power packed flavour explosions only recently had introduced themselves to my tastebuds - so happy they met - preshafruit is amazing - if you haven't had the pleasure - please try one - they are so good you can actually taste the different kinds of apples they offer - yeah they might be pricey, but so is soy milk piccolos and most other drinks in the shop fridge... suck it up

Heart on your sleeve...

Some people need to wear it for life, they feel it for life, keep reminding me for life...

From the top of the Esplanade...

So this one link appeared in my inbox today - great shots - probabaly a fluke that they got the seeds to look so much like teeth - anyhow - needless to say the copywriting was so boring it made me yawn!

FINISHED FILES ARE THE RESULT OF YEARS OF SCIENTIFIC STUDY COMBINED WITH THE EXPERIENCE OF YEARS...
