Power Kite!!!


Hi everyone,

Yes I have a new hobby... and I thought I would share it with you guys:

POWER KITTING!!



I have just bought a Peter Lynn PepperII 3 squared meters power kite ... IT IS GREAT...
I mean when it is winding the kite can actually pick me up....
This sport is perfect for Scotland...I have already been air born... It was an amazing experience... however landing is another matter...Ya I crashed!!! It was still fun. Going to try and perfect the art of flying a kite!!!

The next stage is to get a land buggy:) ohh yeaahhh

This picture was taken on a field near my flat... what a beautiful day....

Back to Lisbon



Hi everyone, I thought that this picture kinda of says it all about me... world traveller.

After my trip to Amsterdam the plan was to go to Thailand for a week with my mates from Portugal. We got a good deal from Portugal, hence I flew from Scotland to Portugal through Amsterdam. Little did I know that I would miss my connection at Amsterdam due to bad weather here at Aberdeen, and would have to wait 8 hours at Schipol. I would have left the airport but again the weather in Holland was not great so I ended up getting an upgrade ticket and spent my time in the Executive Lounge - Crown Lounge!!!! It was great, although I was the only guy in jeans... but hey I just played it... I am way to rich to worry how I look!!!

I made it to Lisbon about 12hours later and my luggage was still in Amsterdam:( What a way to start my trip to Thailand... but who cares I was going to be with my mates and that is all that really matters!

The following day I woke up at 7 to meet some mates, have breakfast with them, and then meet up with Mike, Ana and Rui who where going with me on this wonderful trip to Thailand:)

We caught a taxi to the Airport and that is where the adventure started....
