This can only mean trouble...


Ok, ignore the title, this can't really mean trouble.. or can it?!



So lets try and round up recent events (without pictures, yes truely sorry, but I forgot my damm bluetooth adapater (further argument of why I need a laptop)).

So as some of you are probably aware, Dom finished with me, what, like 2 weeks ago to this day? So what progress has been made in the world of Richard since?

Well I've been on 2 dates with 2 completely different chicks! Now someone claimed these are rebounds, but to be fair, long distance doesn't quite give you those drawbacks, namely due to the void of not actually having to see them on a daily basis. I've always known that long distance doesn't work and against my better judgement at the time, I went along with it. But anyway...

So on Sunday, I saw Kirsty, nice lass, spent 4hrs of walking and talking, oh and me getting dragged around shops. She's nice enough, but those 4hrs made me realise that she probably isn't right for me, however she seems really keen on me!?!

Friday, half day from work and then out wandering with Michelle, another nice lass, and another 4hrs of walking and talking around the great city that is Edinburgh! Except this time instead of shops, we took each other around pubs (unfort. I wasn't drinking, damm car). But apparently she's really keen on meeting me again as well, so must be doing something right, so maybe another date with her this week!

Work wise this week, nothing much, although I did construct a tower of highlighter pens.. I will post a picture of this later, it was quite a challenge! 3 guys from my dept have had job interviews, so things could be getting very quiet for us indeed.

Last week, had Peter, a friend from Eve Online vist, and then proceeded to take him on the turbo tour of Scotland! Starting off here in sunny Pitlochry, up to Fort William, down through GlenCoe (check my flickr for pictures of the Glen), down to Oban and then back across to Pitlochry... the whole day took roughly 8hrs.. so 8hrs of driving I was knackered. The next day he was departing back to Copenhagen, so before that, gave him a brief driving tour of Edinburgh (what we could get to, the tram works kinda limit where you can go without getting stuck in Traffic.) But it did stay nice, averaging about 20 deg C and the spotting of numerous Dutch Cars (Yes, we had to inform Frans of all the cars). After dropping him off and saying goodbye etc, it was off into the City for the date with Kirsty (see above).

Back to current events.. this weekend been kinda quiet. Yesterday, we had the sort of flash storm that you would expect in area's like Florida, one minute it was sunny and the next the rain just dropped out of the sky! So much so, that the bottom of my garden flooded!! Then followed by barrage of hail stones.. The first thing it reminded me of was Florida seriously.. Still, it didn't stop us firing up the BBQ for some tasty grub!

Today, well nothing too difficult, just writing this blog, informing my reader(s) (prove me wrong!) of my life and then enjoying the sunshine! I'll post the pictures at some point, but until then I shall you with yet another youtube video.. enjoy! (It's an old song.. but I love it)
