Me Van For Sale

Like an eejit I forgot to post this here. My lovely van Maurice is for sale, it just doesn’t work as a second vehicle with a babby. I hate to see it go, it’s served us through three or four house moves and it’s still in great nick, but needs musten.

It’s the quick 2.0 turbo-diesel, not the manky 1.7 with the Isuzu engine. Low mileage (89.5k miles), electric windows, CD player, serviced every 10k since I got it, and minded. Just got a new shock and battery, and it had the front suspension done last year.

It’s a nice looking van too: 15″ Irmscher alloys, debadged, tints and a body-coloured bumper at the front. It also comes with a partial set of black 17″ Team Dynamics rims (+ 1 cracked), roofrack bars, and I’ll even throw in the undrilled plates I never got around to fitting. :)

Here’s the ad on adverts.ie, I’m open to offers and I promise I won’t even laugh too hard if you know me already. :)

“Commentry in Scottish”

A hot-air balloon crash. In China. With some Scottish lads. I love the friendly shouts of “Ni Hao” at the lady they pass as they hurtle towards the ground. :)

Game Deaths

It’s just bizarre to think these were cutting edge when we played them.

How many do you recognise?

Floppy Imperial March

Sorry about all the retarded in-vid comments, but it’s too good not to post. :)

Dam!

On October 26th, a hole was blasted in the base of 125′ tall Condit Dam on the White Salmon River in Washington. In less than 2 hours, the reservoir behind the dam drained completely and the White Salmon flowed unimpeded by a dam for the first time in 100 years. This short clip is a combination of video and timelapse photography captured throughout the day.

Celebration! (Cocktails and Beer)

I’ll be sipping €5 cocktails in Sober Lane from 5:30 tomorrow to celebrate the recent addition to my family, and to celebrate the sleep I’ll get afterwards. May head over to Paulaner Oktoberfest Beag in Beamish & Crawford’s later in the evening, but I’m playing that by ear. Give me a tinkle if you’re coming in later.

[Sorry about the dupe post, stupid Hellotxt has a problem with ampersands. Seriously, ampersands. I'll be switching back to TwitterFeed unless they get their house in order.]
