Here's what happened today

Sean and I went to a kaleidoscope exhibition

 

that had really big walk in kaleidoscopes.

After that we went to a hipster café.

Hipster café!

Where one could sit in a shipping container and feel cool.

 

 

 

Pizza-pizza

As promised, here are some pictorial updates from Auld Reekie. These pics look a bit blurry as I am uploading them, we'll see if they are acceptable as it goes "online" (- as the kids say). One should be able to click on them. That might help in seeing things clearer.




Sean at the local pizzeria...
 



with an Italian looking dinosaur.

 

There are a lot of museums in town. This seems to be some kind of animal one.

 

Super-Ted!!

Back Again

Wow! It has sure been a while since anything happened here.
From now on, I am going to do my best to keep this blog somewhat up to date, I will post some pictures as soon as possible. At the moment I am in a library in Stockbridge, Edinburgh and my time computer-time is running out. More Later!

Sean the Welder

More pics

Some more pictures of the lad.

Coolest author-hair ever.

Locker Room Shenanigans

This is what I do to entertain myself in the locker room at work.

My locker is the one on the left.

 

 

March Fun

So far today Sean and I have:

 

Ridden the bike

 

 

 

Decorated for Easter

 

Visited an old plague cemetary and gone rock climbing

 

 

New Year - New pics

As I sit here, entering data, I thought I'd update the old picture bank. Enjoy:

 

Ready to play some footie.

Poking holes in the ice.

A snow dog.

Throwing snowballs.

Playing in the woods.

Myself fixing the roof after a storm.

A highly respectable Star Wars-collection.

 

Psychocandy

Today I did my first day as a research assistant at the department of Psychology. It is a part time position, which  is perfect since I work full-time at my "real" job - hawking booze to anyone who wants it. It is also a great opportunity to stay a jour with the lovable world of academic psychological studies, and lets not forget that I am actually getting paid to sit at home and enter data and listen The Jesus and Mary Chain.

Little Julius

Today there was a halloween party at Sean's day care. I think he had the, by far, coolest outfit!

 

Toga!

 

Mountaineering

Sean doing some rock climbing while partaking in a family outing to watch some dog sleddding.

 

Funny random stuff

Interesting crisps label:

 

Halloween time!

The other night... 

This...

 

 

...Turned into this!

Game night

The wife finally got her way the other night and was given the privilege to lose a game of Parcheesi. At the same time I had the pleasure of enjoying some fine beer and cheese.

 

 

Vikings

This is how one enjoys oneself while on holiday in Sigtuna.

Dragons and ducks!

 

Hide-and-seek!

Junior Baker

Sean helping with the bread baking!

 

 

Bubbles!

Sean and I being a pair of bubble-popping goofy goobers.

 

Coming up with a game plan

"Gotta catch 'em all"

It's awesome being four!

To Booze-land and beyond!

Tonight's musical choice falls on Depeche Mode's Music for the Masses. I am in the study going through the last year in pictures trying to figure out what to make for the lad for his fourth birthday next week.
Also - today I met quite a character from the old childhood. Kapten Zoom (or rather the guy playing him in the old kids show) decided to go on a bender and chose my till in the store to purchase all the wine and spirits that would last a normal man six months, but I'm sure the formidable old captain will see it gone by weeks end.

There are nomal winos - and then there is Kapten Zoom.

Fascination Street

Right now I am sitting in my study listening to The Cure's masterpiece Disintegration, waiting for a show on Twin Peaks to start on the telly. More updates on this raveling situation will surely follow later. For now - here is a picture of a raccoon wearing a suit.
