Backlogged

Not really had a chance to get photo’s edited recently. Everything will appear a bit cluttered.

Back in the middle of September me and Harry decided to turn up at Linda’s place in Blackpool after every plan for the night failed.

Only stayed one night.  Next day went down to the pier again at night then went home.

The day of my parent’s 36th wedding anniversary. Pretty good going.

The day after, I went to see Celtic playing St.Mirren at their new ground. My brother won the tickets, which included a meal and drinks. This was the only shot I took.

Dad in the kitchen.

Over at Grant’s for his ‘room warming’.

A couple of photo’s from walking round town.

A tired Sophie.

Over at Grant’s again when he turned 21.

 

 

A garage near Jenn’s.

A less tired Sophie.

A couple more Halloween photo’s for some continuity.

Walking to Sauchiehall Street for a taxi after Joe’s party. A fight was just starting to break out on the left here.

Suzie over at Jenn’s.

Went over to Dave’s for Bonfire night. His flat looks onto Glasgow Green.

That’s enough photo’s of fireworks.

Some kids playing with a home made swing on another block.

This guy was picking fights with thin air, Harry’s car and himself. The police were less than speedy to arrive.

More excitement. Good old fashioned pole fight. Good old Gorbals.

Linda was up for a few days again to work on a project.

Foggy drive home the other night. That should be everything up to date.

Halloween

First time I have broken chronology on this. Thought it was best to put up these photos first though. I may have more to add but I’m just about to head out. Party at Joe’s on Friday, party at Andy’s on Saturday.

_MG_9599

Used my phone for light. Think it adds to the occasion.

_MG_9603

Joe, Legend and Sam’s hand.

_MG_9709

_MG_9724

_MG_9801

Getting evidence of the lipstick graffiti.

_MG_9823

Think this was a game of ‘deidies’ with Wolverine and Captain America.

_MG_9824

_MG_9902

Next night at Andy’s.

_MG_9916

_MG_9921

Andy throwing fruit out the window.

_MG_9944

Amazing costume or a dog?

_MG_9946

A dog.

_MG_9955

Tony in the loft.

_MG_9972

_MG_9981

I’ll add more photo’s and text at some point later.

End of summer

That’s summer done with. Had loads of free time over the past months but eventually got a job so I can have money.

_MG_2183

Had suspicions that there were focusing issues with my camera and/or lenses. Always handy to have my Dad to test on. Still not convinced though.

_MG_2312

Took this from my car waiting for Suzie and Sam to pick up photos.

_MG_2323

Linda.

_MG_2345

Again + Suzie. It pished this day then got sunny.

_MG_2440

My mum over at my sister’s place.

_MG_2446

Not the best photo, but I seem to be seeing a lot of stuff like this recently as you’ll see…

_MG_2480

Jenn’s living room is always good for the sunny stuff.

_MG_2607

Jenn’s again.

_MG_2618

_MG_2733

Walked round town with Linda for a bit the next day.

_MG_2735

Pigeons doing their thing.

_MG_2754

_MG_2834

See what I mean?

_MG_2836

Na?

_MG_2892

For some reason the colours are shifting when I upload this. I will fix it when I can be bothered.

_MG_2935

Harry.

_MG_2970

Another blue tongue.

_MG_2980

A tasty root beer.

_MG_3003

_MG_3029

A potential cover if Harry releases any pop albums.

_MG_3059

Linda about to ask for a crisp.

_MG_3152

Mikado biscuits are two for £1 in the pound shop. Not bad!

_MG_3170

Quite a cool dog.

_MG_3208

Pretty mad reflections on a car.

_MG_3254

Not much happening but the light is good right?

_MG_3256

This couple argued then stood in this doorway for quite some time.

_MG_3270

Do mobile phones and polystyrene cups mix? *edit* You can see right through this guy. Literally.

_MG_3306

_MG_3373

Had a bbq over at Harry’s. Possibly the last for a long time sadly.

_MG_3381

_MG_3394

*edit* Just discovered the hole is from where Harry’s swing used to be.

_MG_3409

Sam ‘in goals’.

_MG_3475

Then eating crisps.

_MG_3576

Next morning we went to the park across the road.

_MG_3582

Pretty good start to the day.

_MG_3598

Maybe there’s a buy one get one free clothes shop in town? I don’t really know.

_MG_3611

_MG_3613

_MG_3616

Wee girl dancing about.

_MG_3626

Buy one get two free?

_MG_3634

_MG_3636

_MG_3637

A short top and sides.

_MG_3689

At night we headed out for food at La Tasca then drove down to Blackpool for Linda starting back uni.

_MG_3754

_MG_3772

_MG_3835

Colours really seem to stand out in Blackpool.

_MG_3876

Strobist info: A TELLY AND A WINDAE’

_MG_3972

Quite liked this one.

_MG_3999

Not the best photo to finish with but I should really be sleeping as I am working tomorrow as I now have a job. Good summer though.

A night, a day, an evening…

Football, tandem bikes, etc.

This could possibly be the last entry with people wearing t-shirts outdoors. Winter is a looming.

_MG_1081

A couple of weeks ago, I filled in for Sam to take photo’s for his pal Cameron’s football team. First time doing sports. Wasn’t too bad.

_MG_1130

_MG_1341

_MG_1343

_MG_1350

Tried getting some variety in the shots. It can get quite monotonous taking  numerous photo’s of a ball being kicked.

_MG_1379

Thanks to Harry for letting me borrow his lens for the match. Currently he is bigging it up in the States with Jenn. I’d be nothing short of hypocritical if I was to call them jammy cun…_MG_1385

Linda over at Jenn’s.

_MG_1424

Sophie cat.

_MG_1426

_MG_1477

Went over to Kasia’s one Friday, I believe, with Harry, Sam and Suzie.

_MG_1487

_MG_1488

_MG_1490

Rainbow drops.

_MG_1513

The other Jonathan over at Harry’s before the trip to New York.

A change in weather made way for another beach trip. Headed to Largs with Tony, Debbie and Donna.

_MG_1591

Decided to jump on a ferry to Millport, hire tandem bikes, then cycle 10 miles round the island.

_MG_1594

_MG_1598

_MG_1621

We somehow broke our first bike and had to wait here for another one to be brought to us.

_MG_1640

Debbie. Blue tongue AND teeth.

_MG_1647

_MG_1664

Next day I headed into town with Suzie to meet Sam, who bought noodles.

_MG_1669

_MG_1679

A few shots from the walk back to Sam’s.

_MG_1686

_MG_1688

_MG_1721

Went to Tony’s gran’s 70th birthday party last night. Y.M.C.A anyone?

_MG_0731

_MG_0733

_MG_0837

Hanging about before going to see Bruno.

_MG_0841

_MG_0844

_MG_0861

_MG_0882

Having a drink at Tony and Sam’s place before heading out to Glasgow. New favourite living room for photo’s.

_MG_0893

Finally got my car back after about 3 months. Drove to Paisley with Grant and Ross.

_MG_0896

Pipe’s from the pound shop.

_MG_0906

_MG_0914

_MG_0952

Round Glasgow and ish

Was gonna do this blog earlier but didn’t like any of the photos. These are some I disliked less.

_MG_9637

Harry’s nose started bleeding. Not because of MICHAEL JACKSON’S DEATH.

_MG_9672

sam says:  i expect an obligitory sam shot. Granted.
