80-165mph winds hit the central belt of scotland today; gets called “hurricane bawbag”

feeling oddly patriotic right now. 

stuart rescued a bench in the back court from facing a similar fate to this trampoline earlier. also in other news my hat blew off in town and i had to do the run, grab, miss, run more, grab again, miss even more routine for a few minutes to get it back. i needed it though; it’s my burglar hat. 

just a quick festive how it’s made… fake christmas trees!

The Clincarts - Harvest

two people in this band are related to me. one is obvious. prizes for guessing the other!*

so, to continue in the sock stealing cat vein, this is julius enhancing his stealth skills. apologies the sound is ridiculous; it’s irrelevant anyway.

oh. my. god. this could not be any worse. aghh. aghghghhhh. AGHHHSFDldsmdclx.

My tumblr accent video

The first person I met on the Internet who I asked to send me a sample of their accent was Stuart. He sent me some good advice in a .wav file over MSN. Now you can enjoy his brilliant Glaswegian accent too. 

You should also definitely check out Helen’s. 

My personal favourite is the way they pronounce “house”. 

 this is my husband :) i love him in ridiculously large quantities. he has a tumblr - skillybillybup.tumblr.com - which he does sometimes put things on. sometimes.

i just went to the effort or installing drivers for my webcam to bring you this classic bit of bobbenvision. anyone from scotland: where do i sound like i am from??

I am going to delete this really soon because I am way self conscious and don’t even know why I’m posting this :(

I ramble, I look sarcastic and cynical the entire time, only after finishing it did I realise the “clothes problem” and I’m bent over the whole time so… that’s unflattering. Ugh I’m even rambling here. Don’t watch this? Also it goes for way, way too long.

 i am going to do this too (tomorrow when i haven’t just spent 4 hours in the exact same position on the couch) and i think EVERYONE should also do it. so i don’t feel like a loser who just copied her friend. DO IT! DO IT NOW! (or tomorrow).
