Vic has told me I am not allowed to get a kilt because I don’t have the legs for it!!!

Of course I do!!!

Hello peeps!!! New update direct from Ayr, Scotland!

Sorry for the disapearance act! As I’ve said before, Vic’s been keeping us all busy with the itinerary she has drawn up(even tho we don’t really follow it). I promise I’ll respond to comments, resume the Monday Show (did u like the name?? Simple and direct to the point uh!?!?!?), get the pics and videos up to speed (including our Y+V+TB’s most excelent adventure to Scotland which so far will have 4 webisodes).

So… What we’ve been up to so far?

We’ve been to Cardoness Castle( which I absolutely loved!! Can’t wait to see the next), cardoness caravan park(where Vic spent most of her holidays as a kid… Walk down to memory lane for her, her sister and cousins), Edinburg (would have been so much better if we could have gone to the castle and the underground streets!!!) and climbing up a mountain (which I can’t actually remember the name right now but I’m sure Vic’ll tell all about anyways(check glowstars.net)) and when we came back we took some VERY creative pics of Vic with some help from catrina and kirsty (check bellow). My neck will be chopped the moment she sees it but it will be worth every inch of the blade for the laughs we had (kirsty said she hadn’t laughed like that in ages and I make mine her words and cat… Well no coments, she looked as if she could burst at any moment!).

I know there’s something else to report on but I am sooo tired I’m about to colapse… Well and I gotta leave something to report on the Y+V+TB’s most excelent adventure to Scotland’s video logs!!! (avaliable soon in a blog near you!!! LOL!)

I have no idea what’s up for tomorrow as Vic seems to have a bit of a fever (it was raining on the hills) but I’ll keep u posted!

Make sure to keep an eye on Twitter (www.Twitter.com/urbanvox) for on the go updates!!!

Zya!!!

And we’re finaly at vic’s cousins house!
I am exhausted but can’t wait to get the actual tour started!
The trip from darby dale was at least interesting. I’ve never driven through winds blowing so violently. Well at least not for so long… Record for strenght is still driving through a tornado in NY but that was just a couple minutes.
Wind and rain and spray from other cars were so strong that I could barely see a thing right in front of the car .
We’ve left late(my fault this time), made far too many stops(vic wanted kfc but no stop had kfc restaurants. Then after we gave up and ate fish and chips, the next road service had a kfc), lost the 1st castle we were going to visit and arived @ about 6 instead.
Diner was 4 pizzas and a munchies box! Num num!!!
Soooo… I am here waiting for the girls to get back from the airport(they went to pick beth up) so I can find out where I’ll b sleeping tonite…
Me sleepy!!!
Well… For on the go coverage of the Yuri+vic+TB’s most excelent adventure: Scotland edition, stay tuned on my Twitter(www.Twitter.com/urbanvox)

Zya!!!

Ps:I am happy no one can read my mind!!! (internal joke)

The Boo family is on tour!!!! Hehehe
The blog posts will be kinda short for the duration of the trip ((I make no secret that I hate the imonster’s presidtable text, and as most blog posts will be through it while we’re round here you now know why!))
So yeah… We’re on the road and here Is the report of day one of our most excellent adventure .
After having finished vic’s huge to do list( me to do not her)late ( we were suppsed to leave at 4:30 and left at 5) we’ve proceded with leg one of the trip: London-Darby Dale. Well, not without a 2 hour detour to old street to pick vic up.
We made one stop and the trip was pretty uneventful but we made it to darbyshire in good time.
We started to video log the trip already and might have to divide it In more than one websode, but I am sure it will be cool!
Well 1am… Gonna get some Zs before leg 2.
For real time updates stay tuned to Twitter(www.Twitter.com/urbanvox)!!!

Zya!!!

Better late than never I say!!!!

Yesterday was VLog day @ 20something Bloggers!!! And because I misread the e-mail (it happens often when you’re reading at 2am+… ) I thought Vlog day was today!!! Duh!!!

Quick but says it all!!! (LOADS to do before our Most Excellent Adventure to Scotland!! we’re leaving tomorrow!)

MY TO DO LIST:

- Go to bank,

- Go to Games (exchange games)

- Go to Argos (TB needs a new inflatable bed… his is now too small)

- Finish Packing

- Check film equipment (we’re documenting the whole trip… will be FUN!!)

- K’s consultation this afternoon

- Tidy up the house (at least make it presentable)

and I am sure there’s something else I need to do but it hasn’t occurred to me what it is yet…

So gotta run!!! zya!

…(from Greek arachne (αράχνη), “spider” and phobia (φοβία), “fear” ) is a specific phobia, an abnormal fear of spiders. (Wikipedia)

Did you ever watch a movie with the same name? Here, take a look at the trailer to see if it helps.

Well… I have watched it and it changed my life forever!!!

I was 10 years old when I watched it for the first time and from this day onwards I have developed an insane fear of spiders. Well… it is a lot better now… I can even kill them (although I rather avoid getting near them altogether… they are fascinating… but still scary!), but at one point in my life I would get petrified if I felt I was being threatened by a spider (id doesn’t matter how small it may have been).

Funny how things are… TB has the same fear of spiders I used to have! And he is just as fascinated by them as I used to be!

We had an incident today… there was a spider in the bath! a huge spider!!! It took us the best part of 20 minutes to drown it so we could dispose of it!! It sounds cruel… but they are evil!!! Did you know that a brown spider can kill a child if bitten only two times?? and did you know they can be commonly found living amongst us, inside our homes???

Those are times of war my friend!!! There is no doubt of that! they are everywhere and they can creep on you when you least expect!! And make no mistake, they will strike as quickly as they can breathe!

Quick question… How do I explain to a 4 year old that he doesn’t really NEED to be that afraid of spiders???

And how about you??? What makes the hair in the back of your neck stand up?? What are your Phobias??

zya!
