“Adventure Golf” (Carribean themed)

Pistol Shooting

Keepy-uppy

Anything else that anyone wants to do?

Also, Smalltree and I will be purchasing food to cook onthe Friday night.  This wil be a large dinner and is non negotiable, and attendance is mandatory.  One of us is a vegetable is that correct?

This is wrong wrong wrong…
Russell Crowe to play Bill Hicks in a movie of his life.
 
Where can I go to stop it?

“More time in Australia is always a bonus,” Crowe said last week.

“I have another project based on the life of comedian Bill Hicks, which is going from treatment to draft stage with Kiwi writer Mark Staufer.”

It is understood he is considering playing the main role of Hicks — a controversial and brilliant American comedian who battled drug and alcohol abuse before dying from cancer at 32. Crowe confirmed Nottingham would not go ahead until March next year because director Sir Ridley Scott wanted the leaves on the trees in England’s Sherwood Forest to be the right colour

We are go!
 
So I’ve got clearance, Smalltree has clearance, I’m assuming that yakkern and Whiskey are sorted too.  Dan has OK’d the use of the place so we are go!  I’ve even spoken with the wronger about it and he is in.  And let it be noted here that he is the only Girl allowed.
 
I guess this year will be guitars galore, so be warned that I cannot play one, but will attempt to warble over the top when smashed.
 
Do we need to organise anything more than:
Leave Home Sept 26th as early as possible
Arrive back on Sunday 28th around 5 (if you’re in my monster truck)
 
Do we need to head to Thatchers first?  I seem to recall that we overstocked on that somewhat last time round.  We were also hideously understocked in other areas.

It doesn’t actually start until 3 mins in.  He plays progressivly faster and faster.  If you can’t be arsed to watch it  all skip to near the end where he breaks the record as he plays flight of the bumble bee at 320bpm!!!

I guess that means he’s plucking the string over 5 times every second?

It doesn’t sound pretty but it is impressive.  I suspect he may actually be a cyborg.
