Yup… Holidays are getting to an end!

Soon we’ll be back to “living la vida loca” back in London! Weirdest bit of all… I’ll miss this place…

I’ll miss the mountains, the sea side, the villages that seemed to have stopped in time and the castles that have lasted all this time. I’ll miss the people and their funny accent… And will miss Cat and Kirsty (the spooky ghost LOL) who have sheltered us during our stay here. Thanks a lot girls!!!

Today was time to say bye bye to Scotland!

TB and I had a daddy+TB fun day! We went to Pirate Pete’s playground adventure thing and then picked up Vic’s grandfather and nan to go to Dundonald Castle. Loved it! Pics coming soon!! Too bad that Vic’ told me
not to take the big camera. but hey!!

Vic went shopping with Cat. Dangerous!! But we each have a way to say bye bye to Scotland in!?!,? LOL!

Well in 2 days we’ll be back to the rat race, endless traffic jams, work, day to day problems, Internet, civilization… Ok… It is not that bad!!! LOL!

Anyways… On the road again!!!

Off to bed!!!
Zya!!!

Ps: got stopped by the police today! I was doing 45mph on a 20mph… My excuse??? Tb needed to pee REALLY badly!! The best part of it all is that it worked!!!

“sorry officer, my son REALLY needs to pee, so will you excuse me if I take him to the toilet quickly before talking to you?”

“Uh, ok… Just drive carefully, specially if you have the lil guy with you…”

They turned and went away as I ran inside with tb.

Suckers!!!! Hehehe

Cat later told me they probably stopes me because they thought I was a boy racer… It so happens that the area I was speeding on is a boy racer point… Not far from the truth… Not far from the truth!!!!

If they only knew… Hehehe

Zya!!!

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!!!

(in favor fairness and equality (Some people complained they can’t open YouTube at work) this post is also available in print… lol… Enjoy!!!)

I know the plan was to Video log every Friday but the circumstances didn’t allow it, I am hard at work to finish Crossing Wires, my first serious web series which alas now has a Pilot Script (yay). But I’ve been trying to keep least twitter updated, so bare with me… I’ll try not to disappear for too long next time.

So… have I been up for the last week?

hummm nothing much really… it took me about 2 days to catch up and rest from the Survival of the fittest and then the rest of the week to get the script for the pilot ready (BTW… I hope you don’t mind but I am using some of you, my beloved readers and expectators as role models for some of the characters. And after you see the first episode you will be able to identify who’s some of them and stay tuned to urbanvox.net for more info on that! Ah… and if you have any interesting stories about your blogging life with a humpf in the LOL factor, LET ME KNOW and we might use it (working on some sort of prize for those who get chosen… )

Oh.. Here goes a spoiler… the plot revolves around blogging friends and their blogs… hehehe… hope u like it!

I know not everyone has access to YouTube from the office for example… so… Responding to the comments from the past week.

On Sudden realization:

OHmommy – I would like to copyright that… but it is a variation of VERY old say in my country, “Quem ta na chuva eh pra se molhar”… We’re bound to get wet if we go out in the rain don’t we? Wish I had thought of that earlier! Enough Biting around the bush!

VeryBadCat – You can boycott it as much as you want! us till gonna be left curious till the whole thing is out there! I left you a lil spoil today tho… as PART of the whole scheme… Happy now?

On what have I found?!?!?!

Betty poo… my beloved sister in law… straight back at ya!

On survival of the fittest

Vic – baby… yes we almost flew away!! It was REALLY that bad… Imagine me rolling around in that tent! sniff sniff!

And… You’re just jealous cuz they responded to me in the same day… hell in the same morning and it is taking THAT long for them to respond to you… yup… I am that Good! (Lol) Just kidding… I do think u write A LOT better than I do… so stop being jealous! Green is not your colour! Hehehe

PessimisticRedHead – Thank you! And hope to see you round here more often!!

Vered-MomGrind – I’ll have to agree with you 100%!! Did you know that the general public relies on blogs MORE than they rely in newspapers for news and articles? So yes, I am a blogwhore and proud of it!

It is Tuesday… so I can tell you what to expect in urbanvox.net for this week:

Today (in an hour actually) I’ll be taking a driving test… yayyy… my theory test has expired and I’ll have to do it again… Sooo exciting… no not really… I hate those!!! Can’t they just give me a driving license based on the fact that I have a full 10 year experience one from Brazil? And believe me when I say that I drive a hell of a lot better than many brits I know!

Between Wednesday and Friday I’ll be conducting Screen-tests for Crossing Wires. Interested in participating? Gi’me a shout…

The project is about to expand! LOOOADS of ideas! Hehehe

Friday we embark for our most excellent adventure to Scotland! And we (Vic+TB+Me) are preparing something soooo cool for ya! I’ll be talking about that some more as the week goes on and I suspect Vic’ll do the same.

Right… As always I am late…

So… As always… Keep an eye on my Twitter!!! And stay tuned on Urbanvox.net!

Zya!

PS: I am looking for a cool name for the weekly video webcast thing… any ideas????
