Photo du Jour #3



Beach Huts - Hove

Well a few weeks ago on I was waiting for a delivery for a motorcycle part, sadly said part did not arrive/ courier didn't knock just left their scrap of paper saying they would be coming on Monday. 

So with this disappointing news I decided to venture outside as the sun was shining, I decided to head down to sea front and battle through the crowds of tourists, children using their bicycles for the only time this year until they get abandon in the back garden of no return and all the locals in their spandex running gear who stuffed their faces with their free range organic locally sourced festive related troff. As I dodge and weaved through the carnage of man kind, momentarily everyone seemed to of disappeared and I managed to get this wee little gem of a snap, and about 3 seconds later an armada of infants on scooters invaded the space. Such is life eh?

Photo du Jour #2



Chateau Carbonneau

Last month I was lucky enough to be sent to Bordeaux by work for a mini wine education holiday, which entail meant me and my chums got to go to fabulous Chateaus in the region (left bank to precise where Merlot is grown more) this was the very first Chateau I visited a lovely 3rd family generation owned Chateau. This is the where the wine is fermented it was a lovely old barn with creaky floor boards and dodgy stairs that encouraged you to brake your neck. I left the Chateau via the gift shop clutching to very nice bottles of red, mmmmmmm wine, tasty tasty beautiful wine, wine wine, WINE, GRAPES, CORKS ANOTHER GLASS PLEASE. *collapses*

P.S. I'm a bit of a wine snob... sorry if I ever talk about wine like a ponce. I am that guy at parties that knows about the wine who you all hate. I'm also the guy at the party who brings nice wine who you lot want to consume as soon as possible "ooh yes I can really smell the vanilla notes, can I have another glass"

Photo Du Jour #1

Welcome to Photo du Jour, 

Photo du Jour will just be what it says on the tin, It's one of my photos I want to share with you lot.


This is my pal Abi, a very good friend of mine and someone who always looks cool in front of the camera, I shot this last week ago on in the grounds of Hatfield House. She makes a good model but the weather made us all miserable so we retreated to the pub for a nice glass of red. Wine makes everything better.
