mikeys decline




well friday was st andrews day and although when we scots are at home dont give it a thought, when away its a big thing (well an excuse for a piss up!). we decided at the beginning of the week that we would partake in a drinkie or two to celebrate. mikey had decided that he was going to stay in on friday night til he found out that we were headed to the moon for some scottish entertainment!! it came to 6.40pm and he hadnt come home from work, 5 mins later he staggers in the door and asks what time the taxi is coming!! the fastest i have seen him move in a long time!! its also the worst shave i have seen in all my days, he had razor tracks in at least 4 places and was bleeding profusely!! but still some 7.30pm hes in the taxi headed to the pub!! he gave us the pleasure of his company long enough for us to feed him and buy him a drink then he buggered off to a night club!!! it was a good night all in all and when the pipe band marched through the pub there were many a lumpy throat and teary eyed punter!!! the pipes never fail to hit the spot in a scot away from home!!!

the lucky shag and other adventures





well the last week of my dads visit we took the ferry to rottnest island. we had a little wander around and visited the basin where my dad got good video footage of a bright red star fish. i took lots of sceanic photos too! it was hot and none of us had bothered to bring any liquid to drink so off we took to the pub!! we spent a couple of hours in the pub and boarded the ferry back to perth. upon our arrival we discovered that we had no change for the train so we hit the first pub we found!!! the lucky shag!!!!!! a couple of drinks later we wound our way up to the centre of the city where we found yet another pub! we phoned the kids and told them to feed themselves cos in alisons words we were getting rat arsed! these are the pics that i took of a slightly inebriated couple walking through the streets of perth!!!!!!!!!!
