Is there any chance this is the funniest/cutest thing you’ve seen all day…

And remember, I’ve had a squirrel thrown at me today, and that was pretty funny.

So, I was just unloading the van today after removing some of our stuff from a clients house, when my cousin drives down into the yard. He shouts at me “hey Andy,” so I shout back, “alright!”

Then he threw a squirrel at me.

Busy day today, only got 20 minutes break in my entire day finishing up at 6:20. I did get to go to Heysham though, which was cool because the bay looked amazing. No pics of course, as I was driving and in far too much of a rush to stop and take a pic.

In other more interesting work-related news, I’m going to be applying for a job soon (when I get chance to sort my CV) with a German clothing company called Yackfou, who are based in Berlin, which is rather exciting. I don’t speak German, and they don’t seem to mind that all that much. It’s a 3-6 month placement, and whilst its fairly unlikely that I’ll get the job, it was be an awesome opportunity to live in a big foreign city for a few months.

I just renewed the hideyourarms.com domain name through to 2009, which felt kind of weird, locking myself in for that kind of time. I know that just owning the name doesn’t mean that I have to actually use it, but still.

And £3 for a year? How much cheaper can these things get, even with ICANN putting up their admin fees.

I was going through all my pictures this afternoon clearing out the out of focus and ones that I just didn’t just to have enough merit to take up 2MB space on my hard drive, when I found a load of ‘old’ RAW shots. I like to shoot in RAW, but it just takes up so much time sorting them out and processing them. But it does give you soooo much more control over your images, because in its raw state this photo was alright, but it merely documented that I’d been to Wasdale, w

“coming up next, a dog that had 18 puppies… 15 survived”
