Eggbeer Farm

My God Mother's farm is a great place to stay if your looking for a country break with a touch of eccentricity. Eggbeer farm and its occupants have been in my life for as long as I can remember and have enriched me with many fond memories. I was recently there taking photos for a magazine but a couple of years ago I took my video camera and made a mini film of the place. You can view it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mxV_CSH7e-0

Beat the traffic with a Jet

How to beat the London Underground... private jet all the way baby. I flew on this bird from Spain to Morocco on a little investment trip. Of course we avoided customs and were met by a blacked out Mercedes on the tarmac. The hostess was pretty hot too!

Official New Olimpic Sport... Rabbit Riding

BoingBoing in action was a real treat to see! When I saw Ralph Winger jump on and grab the ears off this bouncer I knew he had a good chance of being picked for the Olimpic team. I had a go too... I thought I knew how to ride but this put a whole new perspective on things. BoingBoing here has the record number of clear runs in the Big Bunny League and can jump up to 50 meters!

My 30th Birthday Party!

A few pikkies from my 30th party. It was a huge success and the sheep was an instant hit. We had a Pinata, a creative area, and lots of side attractions besides. I am writing this two days later from my bed! My legs are still acheing (My whole body in fact) and I have a really bad cold :( But.... it was worth it! Some friends were sadly missed but the ones who were there will hopefully remember this party for ever.

I've been framed

On paying Portobello a merry visit on Saturday with Mr. Matt we came across this fabulous regal frame.... in a BIN!
We continued along our journey and attracted much attention both from tourists and locals who took many pictures of our picture. This photo was taken by a film maker called Simon who has just been exhibiting some of his short films at the Berlin Film Festival. This was also his first visit to London and it was a pleasure to show him something slightly diffrent on his trip... thanks for the picture Simon!

Olimpic Emotion at the future site!

As some of you will know I am currently residing on the future site of the Olimpic Stadium for 2012... I went for a stroll in the Sunshine today and took my camera with me. Here are some of the things I saw. I feel this gives another side to the Olimpic bid story and reflects a mood that is a little somber and in some case angry. Prehaps the Olimpics is a good thing in the sense that it will create movement and change but some of the buisness's here are bound to suffer as a result. Its like putting the whole area into a "Mayfair" Status... Rents increase and tennants suffer, while Landlords and property owners wallow in instant riches. I am on the fence... although sooner or later I know that I will have to move on too.

Home Gym!

Instead of joining a gym I thought I would give the trapeese a go but didn't relise just how tough it is... I usually do half an hour of juggling to warm up and then play on this thing! Hanging upside down hurts the most and hanging by your feet... well I leave that to the professionals!

Prince Akhmed banned from Trafalger Square!

Here are some stills from the latest adventures of Prince Akhmed. Joined by the Captain of the Royal Guard, General Slumpvik and two of my wives we drifted around London causing a bit of a stir. Here is a snippit of the General announcing my arrival at Trafalger Square and another of us being asked to leave by security! Their grounds were that we were in costume attrating attention to ourselves with a magaphone without written permission! We did of course stay in characture throughout the conversation, joined by a group of teenage girls who rose to our defense that this was our traditional dress and then he started insulting them... there will be many more episodes of Prince Akhmed so watch this space!

Greetings from Bulgaria!

Just a quick note from the deepest ***KING Bulgaria!

I'm in deep.... real deep! Even the sheep hide around here!

In brief...

Took a journey to Bulgaria with a friend who just bought a 6 bedroom house for £16k...

Spent 6 hours in Hungrey mostly at the airport... hired a car in Sofia, Bulgaria and drove for hours and hours to the East... We were stopped by the police for speeding twice and had to pay a "Comprimise" the first time and got let off the second as by then the local police had been befrended... In fact we were staying with his family! Managed to get a flat tyre and I changed it with the help of my Bulgarian assistant, Evo the Dwarf... he is a great guy and has made a little house with little doors and everything!
The policeman drive to a garage to get the tyre fixed... he broke the speed limit by nearly double without seatbelts and the tyre cost about two quid to fix!

I lost my mind and wrote the following after the trip!....

Just a quick mail to let you know I am still alive and actually managed to catch two Bulgarian Dwarfs on my hunting expedition....
It was hard work but after slaying three Dragons (one was bigger than a Heletrumpus) and befrending a heard of Gypsies who lent me a flying goat I finally managed it.

I sold them at the Mangle Market for two pieces of gold which I was advised to take to the highest mountain and plant 7 inches into soft soil and then wait for a giant golden tree to appear and once climbed it would lead me to a magic land wherein I would find lots of pretty things to play with and many enchanting folicalls to fumble with!...... sadly I think I was given the wrong gold as when planted nothing happened and I came home...

Ah well!
