Snake

Another strange sight when we were up in the Lakes was this, a big fat adder! My brother nearly picked it up thinking it was a piece of rope. After that my dad insisted on poking it with his walking stick. Needless to say it got fed up and buggered off. Very cool though. It made a change from seeing sheep....and more sheep.....oh, and more sheep.




Sssssssid the ssssssnake


I wish my camera lens was more powerful, this could have been a cool picture!

Chopper

Whilst on a recent trip up to the Lake District, we happened to get caught up in an air ambulance rescue. It was pretty impressive, more so when you saw where the pilot actually landed, about a foot from a tree overlooking a big drop in the hillside. Heres the video we managed to catch.

Surfs Up!


You have to watch this trailer, if only for the little fat baby penguin chicks, hilarious!

Steve Wright tells Stu, MAKE A BREW!





Our mate Stevey alerts Stu in our office to the fact that me and Chris are thirsty. Although he still refused to take a trip to the kettle!

The Fire King!

Ok, bit of silliness, but this clip had me laughing so much when I watched the film. It's from Ice Age 2, and it's worth watching, if not just for Scrat the squirrels acorn chasing. The animation though is amazing!

Aliens View Website

This will only work if you have Google earth, and I recommend getting it, it's very addictive. Basically once you have downloaded Google earth (http://earth.google.com/) visit www.aliensview.com and browse some of the stuff people have found around the globe. You can then opt to save the file and when you open it up, it automatically adds it as a places pointer on Google earth. Then you can view it at your leisure. I found some amazing things, but it can get a bit addictive. If you view some of the terrain ones and tilt the camera, you'll see everything all 3-D like, very cool! The best ones are by far the swear words written in crop fields, or my personal favorite, the giant bunny rabbit!
