Freaky fruit and veg!

promised to keep you entertained with with 'alternative' snippets of life out here so here's something to whet your appetite (or not as the case may be!)

so i was grocery shopping as you do and you know how in tesco's of late you seem to be able to find forever more exotic fruit and veg, well i was in one of our local supermarkets and came across these...

known as Durian fruit, some of you may have seen or heard of it because it absolutely stinks!

this one really freaked me out, known as snake fruit (or salak), I'm sure you can spot the resemblance to its slithery namesake!

and finally the weirdest pick of the bunch in my opinion was this...
Romanesco Broccoli, which looks like some type of alien 3D fractal art. 

going off on a tangent (well not exactly as it is linked to the broccoli) if you are not convinced of god's handiwork in nature then check this link on logarithmic spiral's. Signs of intelligent deisgn and not just a random act of nature?!

29th september was a great day...

reason why....?  Sufyan was born!


As you can no doubt imagine this little cheeky chappy has been keeping us very very busy. so much so i havent had a chance to update this till now. i get a feelin my 4 wheelin days may have come to an end...cant see myself tackling dusty trails and remote mountain passes with this little one in tow instead it might be discovering the wonders of a nappy change and mastering burping techniques. anyways, heres a few more piccies to whet your appetite, enjoy!





I am worried I may not have too much to write home bout now with sufyan taking up so much of our time so i may revert to civvy mode and start writing about the local taxi's and roundabouts...erm, i think not!!!

No promises, I will try and come up with a different take on what i am getting up to here to keep you all entertained, ciao for now :-)
