Hey ho lets go right? Ok, so we did the weirdest thing the other day. We hiked up our local mountain, the Coolys or Ravensdale as you all know it to be yep, right to the top and what a damn good view towards the Dublin and the Wicklow mountains (which we will be going to sooner rather than later keep a wee eye out for that hopefully some good photos in the pipeline if not I’ll defiantly be disappointed).
This time in the mountains there were not two goats but darn herds of them but none wanted to eat me (that kinda sounds dirty). I’m defiantly not a goat whisperer but then again there is footage of them loving me up like they even wanted to get into my pants, the dirty wee rascals. That’s probably were the term sheep shagger came from. There were also sheeples but no sheeples wanted to come near me. Even after all my best bas to try attract them over as I wanted good mutton and lamb on my table. I could nearly just taste it! Yumm yumm. I wonder if the sheeple farmers would notice a missing sheeple? Do you think so? Well I don’t. I just need a sheep dog now to round them all up and pick the best one of the bunch and hope to feck I don’t end up with foot and mouth disease, as that already can be quite common from me. If I do slip up I will just start twitching and pretend I’ve got Tourette’s and shout even more obscenities. No one could or would be able to prove I don’t, unless you’re a god damn genius, a doctor, or maybe even my hamster. Use all think I’m like Granda Micky. Outta my wee head on peyote pills. Aye ya dancer ye!!
So college starts again real soon. A pretty darn easy year apparently. The tutor said before we left for summer break it will be a bit of networking switching and routing, photoshop, and system building stuff. Even my granny could do with her eyes shut but still it has to be done to earn me my qualification just to make everything official on paper.
I’ve also been working on re-building my pc. This time with an even more powerful liquid cooling system I was slightly nervous about doing it as I had to literally butcher the motherboard and add new parts to it and also had to insulate some parts of it so I wouldn’t get nickel shorting out my board. That’s the last thing I want is a huge bang when switching on the computer. I currently also own a mac book pro (I’m making a disgusted face for even having one about me) which was really cheap off eBay. I’m just going to do a very basic refurbishment and re-sell it to make a decent wee profit. I would also like to thank Mrs. Tristan Soelberg for the donation of her old laptop. We went and watched the film Guardians of the Galaxy. Quite funny in places. “I am Grute!” It’s a decent movie you should see it if use haven’t already. Grute will tickle ya and make ya laugh.
***start of rating rant***
To be honest it’s hard to find a decent film that’s not R rated for use. Kai will not watch anything if it’s rated R. Over here we would call it a 15. Yep, that’s right. It’s not an R rated film it’s a 15 for fucks sake. If it has a lot of for ‘fuck sakes’ in it, dirty graphic shaggers, and/or super loads of gory graphic madness, like the Hansel and Gretal: the Witch Hunters, then they might, just might, consider rating it 18. All half decent films seem to be rated R or 15 for us here. I think the rating people need a re-check and not rate everything R just because it has one fuck given or a single flash of a tit. It’s not like a fucking tit will kill ye ya know.
***End Of Rating Rant***
I think this is a good place to mention this. I was also thinking (and said to Kai the other day) when I live in Utah how many people may get offended by me especially hard liner stuck up themselves people that may tick me off. I could just imagine the faces of some shock and horror. I also think it would make a good comedy tv show for Irish reality tv. It was also funny as around the same time as this Kai mentioned that people all think the Irish and Scottish are all nice and fluffy people but in reality we aren’t. We are a bunch of fecking headers. Just watch Braveheart and you’ll see. One of the Irish guys in that film is a pure cracker! Just all the one liners and such he does it’s crazy especially to William Wallace. He said “The Lord is sure he can get me outta this but he’s pretty sure your fucked” before a crucial battle.
Please Note: I have now declared this writing as R rated because of instances of the F word and any offense taken needs to be dealt with by the federation of federal writing laws USA. Under 2003 section 98, and the misuse of the communication act 2010 and another fuck wont be given. The air-show it was amazing although I didn’t get to show Kai the aircraft I worked with and love. Instead I got to see a North American P-51 Mustang called ferocious Frankie (below) which Kai loved the sound of. The beast made her feel all patriotic. Didn’t it kai?
In the war, Ireland stayed kinda neutral although were secretly planning on taking out England from the back door with german help. As far as I know Hitler and his cronnies were in Ireland planning at one stage, but a lot of irish men and woman at the time joined into the british ranks and after the war they were persecuted by the irish government. It wasn’t until 2004-2005 they issued and apology and stopped the persecution. This is why to this day irishmen can still join the british forces. When England owned all of Ireland we were the only country within Britain to not have conscription like England, Scotland, or wales. When the 1st world war happened, most people joined the 36th ulster division which formed up to thirteen additional battalions for the royal irish fusiliers, royal irish rifles and the royal inniskilling fusiliers there most famous battle, The battle of the somme. Though where I’m mostly tied to is the Desert rats and the Royal Air Force. Some person in my family going back yonks ago was a Spitfire pilot for the airforce the Newtownards airfield was actually a training range for them nifty little planes. The reason I went to the air show was to see the battle of Britain memorial flight which had two avro lancaster bombers (the bbmf usually would only have one lancaster, a spitfire and a hawker hurricane) but a lancaster came over all the way from Canada to join up with the BBMF which was pure incredible 12 merlin engines all together which sounded incredible. (heres the BBMF pictures below)
We got to see some aerobatic teams doing some very crazy assed stunts. We saw the RV8tors, The Blades, and of course the most famous and best aircraft display team in the world the royal air forces own RED ARROWS which fly red Hawk T1 jets. In their display team there are 9 jets which they fly at near 800Mph between 2-4 feet away from each other. A lot of people across the world would have seen them flying. They even flew at the 2012 London Olympics opening ceremony. The blades are ex-raf red arrows pilots which set up there own civi display team which is awesome and they currently have the world record for formation looping Pics below
