Never going to be a racing driver...

So last night I decided to be a sensible Sandy and head home early as I was in work this mornin at 8. Twas a clear warm night with only the air whistling in my ears as I sailed down the street on my fine steed. Life was just swell. And then some taxi twat pulls out in front of me sending me airborne. Ended up using my face as an airbag. Im ok but my poor pride is next to nil. Darn.
 One hell of a fat lip yo

Stereotype of an Irish male misunderstood...

So I goes into the bank today to get me cheque cashed. I was in the cheeriest of moods as I was getting me hard earned dosh. The teller seems a friendly chap so we have a birra banter. What are you doing with your evening I says? Im off to my Grandmother's he says. Well you better watch out for that wolf says I!

He didnt get it....

The good life abroad

We have all been working our nicely shaped bottoms off.

While our Irish seems to be improving over here Im pretty sure it has slipped into our own language and we will come back speaking a unique tongue that the best linguists will fail to decipher.

The women in work get thirsty for the Irish accent. Delicious to say the least.

I will be attending the Toronto Indy car race with my darling sister next month.

Meanwhile Sean's scabs have nearly fallen off after his bail and he is ready to lift stuff once again.

Sean Marc and I officially start our new job come Tuesday. Good riddance to that hole of a restaurant we were subjected to.

Jags is still working on a racoon's schedule and we only see him groggy in the mornings.

Julie is surviving the life of men, although she was annoyed when I mentioned how proud I was of the lot of us after keeping the apartment so clean. Apparently she has been cleaning every other moment.

Jags and I are on bug duty. If it has more than two legs we torch it.

Our new apartment sucks bed bugs to say the least. The landlord is a bitter old fool who has spent too much time raising his many kids on the evils of the outside world without considering the long-term social damage it will have on them should the fly the nest. The wireless router is also located at the bottom of a led box buried under the house in case of an earthquake so our net time consists of very little apart from email.

Only another two months here though and we are once again home hunting. Perhaps a penthouse next.

Really need to invest in a new camera as I cannot justify the beautiful Toronto with words alone.

Im off to get my chill on in the park with a cold beer and a few tunes.

One love loverbears

A humble guy with healthy desires

Apologies for the lack of updates recently.

Life has been hectic. In the last two weeks we have gained two and lost one. We have moved apartment leaving Hel and Marc to make three new friends. We have also all invested in bikes so we can cruise the Torontian streets in pure schtyle. Marc Sean and I are all working full time while Jags is working night shifts every other day.

Every chance we get we go to the park because its always around 30 degrees and its a far too aesthetically pleasing opportunity to miss. Sean managed to crash his bike the first day that he got it and his knee is in bits but better that than his head.

Thats it for now. Gotta go lurk.

Keep the Green Isle in tact for me all.

One love.

The evil hen-lookin thing that taps on my window every morning

It has the eyes of a killer and I'm pretty sure birds like that shouldn't be able to hover.

Its in his kiss (thats where it is)

Just back from a game of footie in the blistering sunshine. Having dinner out the back and chilling to some retro funk. Grand Prix tonight. Only had to wait for four months to live this good.

Leaving Montreal en route towards Boston

Leaving one of the most spectacular cities I have ever seen... (and yes this bridge passes right by the hairpin on the Canadian GP track!)

The next big thing

Few things that I have picked up;
Jago can do the full beyonc all the women dance and
Sean has managed to dye all of his white socks pink.
Marc has also bought a keyboard.
With all of this taken on board, we have decided to start a band - Looks like we will be covering the Saturdays a lot.
Keep an eye out for us on TOTP.

Its Shellys birthday tomorrow so we are all going to dress up in our best wear and dance like mad dogs.
Pictures to follow.

How im going to make my millions.

I have noticed that over here all of the pubs mens jacks are toilets and not urinals. In the interest of hygiene I give to you the cinema-seat-toilet-seat. Basically you attach a hinge to the bottom of the toilet seat a la cinema style. Therefore when you go to pee the seat is always up. Everyone wins. Technical drawings on the way.

36 days into the unknown

Starting to feel like we actually live here. Once its not too cold out we are laughing. Job hunt officially started. 5 of us still awaiting the pack of canadian beauties who are goin to demonstrate the true meaning of lust to each of our delicate souls - Any day now. Snow has started to melt and tempeature is picking up and most of the dogs are strolling barefoot. We will all be out in shorts soon enough.

Nearly finished reading American Psycho. It has thought me a lot about how things work or dont exactly work over this side of the water. It must be an accurate reflection of the social identity over here.

So far I have no major regrets apart from misreading a pretty girl leaning in to hear me better at a party, to which I responded with a kiss on her cheek. I told her it was a European thing - turns out she was German. FML.

The posse are all in good spirits and without a single argument so far which means we are all amazingly compatible with eachother, or we are harboring a building hatred which can only result in a bloody masacure - (American Psycho again).

Radiohead album was released today. Delicious. Miss Gavin the most right now.

On behalf of our fivesome, we all hope that our friends and family are keepin it real and hittin it up biggie style. Will post more pictures soon.

Adoringly yours,

TLR

Superbowl Sunday

A serious lack of chippers and Topshop meant that this was quite a different experience to a match in TPs.




Going in Reilly was pumped...

Outside the Bar

The ladies were very friendly.










The bar we went to had the biggest screen in North America. No F1 on it this year though. What a waste.



Meet the Toronto Raptors cheerleaders... we did :D

Sorry its sideways. Will learn in future.

Overall a lot of alcohol was had and all the boys were in their element.



Maybe we will all become NFL fans. I can think of at least two reasons anyway.



TLR over and out. X
