The Adventures of BeerMan

Hi

How's it goin?

From October 2008 to August 2009 I lived in Edinburgh with my friends Adam, Jonny Torpedo and Richard P.

During that time we had many drunken adventures.

Regular readers will know I recently found a lot of old video clips on my hard drive. This post is another post about one such video.

It was a another fun filled day in Edinburgh, I had the day off, as did Adam and Jonny had just finished work. Surely this was destiny telling us to go to the pub. But Adam was in a bad mood. We don't know why. Probably because he thought someone was using his ensuite toilet. None of us ever did use his toilet but he became very paranoid that we were all the time. He refused to come to the pub with us, and stormed off into his room in a huff.

I was not happy with this. It was a sunny day outside and three of us were off, surely this is a sign to go to the pub?

So I enlisted the help of a local superhero to convince Adam to come out and play.

Sorry the footage is a bit crap, you can blame Jonny Torpedo, he filmed it.

That's All For Now

Until Next Time

30 Day Challenge Day 27: A picture of yourself and a family member.

Hi

How's it goin? 

I don't think I have any pics of myself and a family member. I'm sure they exist somewhere. But I don't have any.  There are no recent pics, mainly because my family don't really like me. Which is fair enough. I am a bit of a knob.
So here's a pic of myself and my brother from another mother.

According to facebook he is my brother, so that must make it true.
The above pic of myself and Adam was taken while working on board The Ship. Several years later I got this picture turned into a life size cardboard cut out of the two of us. In fact I got two. Well it was so cheap to get the second one it would have been stupid NOT to have done it. My cutout lives in my bedroom at Campaworld behind my DVD shelf, casting an ever watchful eye on all who enter my room. 

That's All For Now 

Until Next Time

30 Day Challenge Day 26: A picture of something that means a lot to you.

Hi 

How's it goin?


This picture is filled with things that mean a lot to me.

Obviously I'm wearing my cowboy hat, and Jeremy is in the background. But the focus of the picture is clearly "The Boob Mug."


The Boob Mug is one of my favourite mugs.


Adam bought it for me when we were on The Ship. I was in a bit of a bad mood, and he was lucky enough to get the afternoon of in St Thomas. I was not so lucky. So while he was off relaxing at the beach with beers galore. I was serving the cheap bastards who all came back on board for lunch.

To cheer me up, when Adam came back on board, he presented me with this mug, and a beer. I drank the beer right away. In fact I think I had a few, then went to work. So this mug does mean a lot to me. It always cheers me up.
Also this picture is very important to me, as my lovely girlfriend took it. I have deliberately not mentioned her throughout the majority of the 30 Day Challenge, as I did not want to appear a soppy git.
Thank you Laura for taking this lovely picture. It is very lovely. Just like you. And thank you for that battenberg the other day. It was top notch.


Have you ever had Battenberg Cake?


It's bloody lovely!

That's All For Now

30 Day Challenge Day 13: A picture of your favorite band or artist.

Hi

How's it goin? 

This was an easy choice, my favourite band is the greatest band in the universe.

They are bloody brilliant.


I was lucky enough to see them live a couple of years ago when they were touring. Fooking awesome!
And here for you listening pleasure is a video of me singing one of the D's age old hits,
"Fuck Her Gently"

30 Day Challenge Day 5: A picture of your favourite memory

Hi 

How's it goin? 

My favourite memory, this is something of a challenge, my memory is not the best. I forget entire nights out quite easily. I took a look through some old photo's and found this. I wouldn't say it's my favourite memory, but it's a good one.

That's me and Adam. When this picture was taken he had no idea that his head was covered in those black marks. We performed a bar trick on him about ten minutes before this picture was taken. The really strange thing is, when this picture was taken, he had just returned from the toilet. So he went to the mens room and failed to look in a mirror. Either that or he was so drunk he didn't notice. And he didn't notice for a further 45 minutes. 

That's All For Now

Until Next Time

Have A Nice

25 Random Pics from The QE2

Hi

How's it goin? 

Many moons ago I used to work on The QE2, it was a great time in my life, I spent most of it drunk. 

I have included two videos in this post, if you can't see them it's because your reading this crap on facebook, Why are you doing that? That's crazy! Just CLICK HERE to get to the proper blog page.

A couple of weeks ago I posted 25 random pics from my time in Edinburgh. Well here is something very similar, 25 Random Pics from my time on The QE2.

Adam & Jonny Torpedo went out for a few essentials while we were docked in France.

Some birds

Some girls in Bikini's

Bela prepares for boat drill

Andrea's boobs

It was slim pickins in the crew bar this night. Adam & Bob turned to each other

All three of those shirts belong to me. I still have them.

Our 4 piece ukulele band

One night we just felt like wearing poncho's.

This is just before we jumped off the Sky Tower in Auckland, New Zealand.

This is me screaming as I am dangled off the Sky Tower in Auckland, New Zealand

The guy who took this picture told me to wave my arms, I just continued to scream.

Myself and Aussie Jo, drunk in Barbados.

The ship held a formal party for the crew, most of the male crew wore tuxedo's. We went like this.

The Drinking Team: We Dress to Impress.

Superhero night in the crew bar. Kenny went as Gaydar Man.

A pic from the Cheese & Wine party that Bob and I hosted in our cabin.

Drunk in a nightclub in Quebec. This photo was taken just mere moments before the incident that led to me being banned from Quebec.

One man wearing another man's t-shirt.

It was Adam's birthday on a formal party night for the crew. We all hired tux's and I got Adam a Birthday cake.

Adam got very drunk that night, and he forgot he left the birthday cake on his bed, this was the result.

Yes, that is a very hung over man, trying to clean squashed birthday cake off of a hired tuxedo jacket with a hoover.

One night we just fancied going to the pub in a toga

Stewart decided to soak Phil. Not sure why.

This is what Lefty & Jonny Torpedo wore to the Playboy party.

This is what Steve wore to the Playboy Party.

Claire with my boxer shorts. F.Y.I. That's the same pair I was wearing when I wrote this blog post.

25 Random pics from Edinburgh

Hi

How's it goin? 

From October 2008 to August 2009 I lived in Edinburgh, I returned for the month of August 2010 to work in Tapas Towers for the festival. Here are some random pics from my time in Scotland's capitol.

I had just finished a busy shift at Tapas Towers, when I got home around 1 am, this is how I found Adam. 

It's hard to tell but he is actually asleep. 

I was out for a run and noticed this boarded up building.

It's the words "opening soon" that I really like.

Marta from Tapas Towers has a much needed Red Bull, 

 it was the biggest can available. We called it the Mega Bull.

Was out for a pint with Adam and Jonny Torpedo and I noticed that Adam had vanished. He had not been seen for nearly 15 minutes. I text him to ask where he was, concerned that he may have been kidnapped. We have super secret codewords for such situations. This is how he replied. 

 Jonny Mountain and my mate Dave in the pub when they were passing through town.

 We got a bit bored in the flat one night, 

and then Jonny Torpedo found tube of hair removal cream.

The partially bald leg.

A few days after Jonny did this, Adam tried something similar, but not with his leg. 

The mood dinosaur from Tapas Towers, 

This face means the boss is happy.

 This face means the boss is angry.

Adam eating a curry, naked.

Jonny Torpedo eating a curry, naked.

  

Now this isn't a terribly exciting picture, its just a steak sandwich and a bowl of chips. But I was genuinely excited when I ate this steak sandwich and bowl of chips. This was probably the greatest lunch I ever had while working at Tapas Towers. Mainly because it wasn't tapas.

The German waitress from Tapas Towers had a headache, she tried to cure it by holding a glass to her head. Apparently this was an ancient German ritual.

The view from our living room

A very strange order.

I spotted a sign for this pub, perhaps the Anonymous Teuchter drinks here?

Myself, Ian and Richard P out on the razz ma tazz.

Adam and Ian. (A bit pished)

Ailsa attempts to hide from the customers.

 Adam and Jonny in bed together. The scary thing is, that's my bed.

 Adam trying to look cool. And failing.

Dr Kev, Mark and Jonesy when they came down for the flat warming. Why Mark has that expression on his face remains a mystery.

That's All For Now


Until Next Time
