I came out of hospital last week after being proper fucking ill for 6 weeks. Caught pneumonia after travelling which wasn’t treated aggressively enough which developed into an empyema (Wikipedia that shit) and had to get surgery on my left lung. Bad times but I’m more or less better now. Don’t take your health for granted and be grateful you live in a country with free health care!

Moving on, click below to visit my Picasa to see some disposables and iPhone shots from the last time I was healthy:

Also, have a listen to my ‘House Party Classics DnB Mix’ & prepare your bass face:

I don’t know what I’m doing with this blog. I’ve just had the best summer of my life full of festivals parties and I went travelling round Europe for 3 weeks. Pictures here.

I’m about to move to London to start work for a wine company doing their YouTube channel, which I’m excited about.

I want to film skateboarding again.

Paget has a new video part:

I might start posting here again, maybe…

Fuck me, an update?!

I don’t update this blog when I’m having fun, the only reason it’s getting updated now is because I have revision I should be getting on with.

The last two or three weekends have been SICK. Last weekend it was one of my mates from home’s 21st, and he invited 35 of us over to his to have a garden party and hog roast, which was incredible. Not only where we treated to an all you can eat buffet, but a beer pool, as well as champagne and Pimms. Cheers Scotty! All 35/40 of us then jumped on a hired coach to a jungle rave in Brighton. Needless to say it was the nuttiest road trip I have ever been on in my life. I won’t go into details.

This is a picture of my mate Charlie, which definitely gives off the wrong impression of my friends.

The Podcast has been updated as well with a video of two twelve year old boys. It is not how it sounds. Charlie Francis has got all excited now…

Summertiiiime…

At the moment it’s raining, but last week consisted of this:

That’s probably all the sun we’re having until September now…

It’s lucky they put this sign on this bin because I was planning on doing all of these things:

My life consists of smashing the weekend, re-writing the same to-do list every week night, then realising it’s the weekend again and worrying that my life is disappearing before my eyes. It’s all right though, got a few things on the go that are actually productive, although quite slow moving. Here’s a photo of the moon:

Had a little play with the 550 on the roof the other night. Click to go large.

Happy New Year!

If you’re following me on Twitter then you would have herd that my housemate Toby and I were hosting a New Years party.

It. Went. Off:

Click for the album!

Literally turned the house into a nightclub. The new year was brought in with some confetti cannons, champagne, and this tune. Made my skin tingle. Thanks to everyone who came to make it such a sick night!

That 4K video hack posted below was a hoax, but evident from the party, the 550D is in fact champagne proof.

MANUAL Focus?!

Here are a couple of photos taken over Christmas with my lovely new toy. No I’m not some spoilt kid who got it for Christmas, saved long and hard for this, plus student finance lent a hand. Bought a Samyang 85mm f/1.4 lens but it’s far too telephoto, especially with the cropped sensor on the 550D, so I’ve sent it back and am just waiting for the 30mm f/1.4 Sigma lens to arrive. Should make life a little easier.
