At Last - A New Desk!
Long time readers will know that I liked to have a good old moan about my office desk and chair. You’ll be pleased to know that on Tuesday, my new Desk and Chair finally arrived!
It took 6 hours of flatpack hell, but I eventually got everything up and running and you can see the difference below.
The Old:
The New:
The new one set up is great, I actually have somewhere to put my legs! ;-)
The only downside came when I stepped back to admire the work and tripped over the printer that was still sat on the floor behind me - I had forgot to find somewhere on
the new desk for the printer to live :-(
Horton Gala 2007 Pictures
Here are some pictures I took at the Horton Gala 2007, it took place on the 2nd June. Apologies for the smallish pic size but I am tyring to keep the page loading times to a minimum!
Two men wondering if they had got the wrong day:
It’s ok, two cars have now arrived. One containing an oversized umberella:
Spot the traditional coconut shy and ice cream van:
The big hill (Penyghent) that the fell runners will be running up:
A woman dressed as a yellow duck, desperately looking for some water:
A fancy dress parade, where parents get to dress kid’s up in decorated prams and boxes:
Why you should never wash your hair using Hortons water supply:
Duck woman still in search of some water:
A bird of prey sat on a roof:
Same as above but including man with comb-over:
I have no idea what I was trying to take a picture of:
A woman dressed in tin cans and plastic bags…..it takes all sorts:
A vuture flying towards a man with a very hairy back:
The vulture contenplating the next move:
The vulture goes in for the kill, possibly needs some hair for its nest:
Another bird, possibly an eagle?
Fell runners about to set off:
And there they go:
And a bit more:
And the stragglers at the back:
Some strange creatures: (The ones in the pen)
They are called “Alpacas”
I may have the spelling totally wrong, they look like Lamas…
Cheeky:
Duck woman still looking for water, she’ll find nothing in there apart from tasty cakes and soft drinks:
That brings to an end my pictures. I have been told that the duck woman did eventually find some water.
Free Landscape Wallpapers
I noticed that the pictures section was quite slim so I have added some Free Landscape Wallpapers for you to try out.
These are all pics that I have taken myself, the location for all of the pics is in the Yorkshire Dales (UK).
I am making the pictures available for free but if you do decide to use any of them as your desktop wallpaper then I would be very greatful if you could leave me a small donation to help pay for the bandwidth!
My Pictures - 21st June 2006
I wasn`t planning on having a big pictures section but I really wanted too see how long Imageshack would store my pictures for. So this seems like as good a way as any!
These pictures were taken by me, today. As soon as I started snapping it started to rain so I only managed to get a couple of half decent pics!
Both of the snaps were taken in a top secret location in North Yorkshire, England. If anyone can guess where it is I may even give you a prize!
