Stop. Blogger Time!
Woot. The weekend treated me well.
I was busy, but not in a bad, it's loads of effort kinda way, which was most pleasing.
On Friday I went out for a few beers with Laura, Nate, and a load of other people you don't know. It was fun, and I got quite drunk. I went into town on Saturday, with the intention of blowing my wages on some stuff. I wanted a pair of sunglasses, some new shorts, and some wife beater vests. Unfortunately I wandered town for ages, and didn't find anything I wanted to buy. I nearly bought a Nintendo DS, but I couldn't see any games I wanted, so I didn't.
However, while I was in town I met a Japanese man and woman. They wanted directions to the Tourist Office. For those of you who don't know, I speak a small amount of Japanese, and the majority of what I know is based upon what to say when you meet someone for the first time. However, for some reason I got so nervous, and instead of saying Nihongo-ga scoshi wakarimasu, I got the order completely the wrong way round! They were very impressed though, even if I was talking gibberish and couldn't actually remember any of the things I had learned. They were very surprised that I had taught myself!
Anyway, it turns out they work for a TV company, and they're making a programme about the history of Plymouth, and planned on including something about the pubs and bars. They asked me about 'Captain Drake' (Meaning Francis Drake, who I believe was actually a Vice Admiral, and a pirate - yarr!), and they wanted to know about the Pubs that he may have drank in.
I gave them the best information I could, considering I'm no expert in that field, and they went on their way.
Here are some interesting photos I took in town:
Super Rug. Super. I wonder what they can do for YOU?
A Lamborghini Murcielago, I believe...
It was Spanish...
I want one!
This little guy went cruising past me when I was eating lunch. It was really funny. His little vehicle seemed to have a similar engine to the old people's disabled shopping trolley thingies, as he was shifting some, between about 5 and 10mph I reckon! Luckily, he appeared from quite far back, so I was able to get my phone out and prepare to take a pic as he shimmied on by before disappearing round the corner.
After my fruitless shopping trip I went to a beach called Bigbury (I think). What's cool about Bigbury is that just off the coast there's a large island with a pub on it, that you can walk out to, when the tide is low. When the tide is high, you can ride the 'Sea Tractor' to get across for the affordable price of 60p. Yay!
Here are a few of the best photos of the day, click on the pictures for full sized versions. All of these photos were taken with my mobile phone, including the panoramics!
And a couple of Pics from the pissup on Saturday night, after the beach!
Winky.
One of Nate's friends is a copper. We nicked his badge and played 'pigs and crims'. I'm one badass cop.
Vodka Slush Puppies make me do bad things.
A quality pic of Laura and Nate.
Nate's Brother's cat, Jess. If only it were big enough, it would surely destroy that house.
JessZilla! Destroy! Destroy!

Yes! Two in a row! IN YOUR FACE JEFF!!!
Jess is huge! Nate's brother's house must be a skyscraper.
cool pics, especially the four wheel drive boat ferry thing. Texas needs some of those. Foss is pure speedy posting evil. the only thing more evil is prawn flavored crisps. Who would ever want potato chips that taste like crustaceans? If I find out that Ryan is calling you as soon as he posts to alert you to comment I am shutting off both your supplies of heavily read, slightly soiled mens magazines.
