Can I have some

Can I have some soup please?

"free beer!"... on a -3c night... dear digital cool dudes, c'mon! it's A'Deen in december! I loved the Mighty Meet Up tonight, but I fear I am too old now... there was a time when "free beer" would have me rolling in the snow in a balaclava, miners lamp and snowboarding goggles... but I just want some hot soup now.. boo hoo.

For anyone "digital" and interested in web tech / dev / design... you really should attend the next MightyMeetup. It's free, and you do get more than beer... knowledge! (no soup).

Last run...

Last run the n Chloe?

I think I said that 4 times today... amazing day up at Glenshee, blue Skies, no wind, heaps n heaps o sna... amazing. it doesn't get better than that on the Scottish Hills.... well, if they'd opened Glas Maol, perhaps... and Butchart's tows...

not my photo, but this is spot on for what it was like today...

Blood turns into...

Blood turns into Jelly Blood

A Christmassy, jolly, snow filled trip to the shops to buy a tree... we've only ever had a 2 foot high, mini jobber... and now Poppy is getting right into Christmas, we thought we'd get a decent one!... so, safely bagged, in the car, driving away, we get this Christmas gem from Popps... what does go on in that head... and, should we be worried...

I wonder if Mark Quinn would have Poppy help him in his studio?... hmmm....where's that phone...

It's not a polar bear neck...

It's not a polar bear neck top, it's a piggy neck top, as it's pink!

Cold today... more snow, fantastic... so, we wrap up warm! We recommend a Polo Neck top... don't you love how kids can mis-hear words.

I'm going...

I'm going stir crazy!

We're holed up this morning due to the crazy amount of fantastic snow in Inverurie. Anyway... I think we need to go for a walk, somewhere...anywhere! Someone's so bored, she's doing dastardly things with pens! "I'm the wicked witch"... aye, tell us about it.

The cousin of the caterpillar...

The cousin of the caterpillar, is the maggot

Another beautifully random quote from Poppy, when we were driving in to Aberdeen today... it's snowing, cars going slow, piles of the white stuff everywhere, and Poppy's thinking about caterpillars... amazing.

I might be home late...

I might be home late, I'm guessing there are a few numpties on the road

Aye, a puff o sna... everybody drives like a tool... either too fast (hit that tree you tool) or far too slow (you know, it's only a wet road... seriously!)...

I spent 2 hours travelling 18 miles. I honestly thought I'd see a multiple pile up tonight... nope, just a roundabout at the bottom of a hill...

mind you, once on my home straight.. 9 mph, downhill, I skidded past my road (!)... curse you ABS and roads like bottles (aye, not main roads, you haters).

I like the three Penguins...

I like the three Penguins, they are my winner!

Gabi and I were asked to judge the Christmas card competition for Anne Begg today, Poppy was very excited about it too!... We went through around 500 cards! So many great designs to choose from... ah, but only one can be the winner... this will of course be announced in December...

Ooh! It's snowing...

Ooh! It's snowing, that means it's Christmas!

Hold on! hold on! where did you get that from Popps?! Ah, all the books about Christmas, all the cartoons, all the films... I see your logic... no, santa is just sending a quick "snow test", and cooling the place down, in order for the REAL SNOW to stick around for ages, like last time... mwooo ha h ah a ha h ha ha ha

here's the lecht's webcam - on the 20th of October 2010 - it's fantastically white...

Oh, I do look...

Oh, I do look like a bzz bzz stranger

We've got snow, hail and driving cold today... so lets get preped for winter! Gloves - Check! Hat - check! Odd Bollee goggles from the sprite advert oh so many years ago - check!
