April Album - The April Skyline

BJ's Words:

I had an idea to dedicate the album to one of the gentlemen that are doing this music experiment with me, the artwork was very difficult to decide on and I made probably 7-8 different covers, with this one winning out. I'm still not very impressed with the small text or the way it looks, but it was better than the other 6 or 7. After this album I picked up my game with design and took it more seriously.

My Thoughts:

This album isn't my favourite artwork but i love to this one on in the car, especially if i don't know what i want to listen to. It has some great songs on it and really gets you singing along.

Fork This 69 - I'm Frank Fritz

I came across this wonderful sounding place that was choc-full of antiques so BJ and I decided to head there this weekend. It's called Waverley Antique Bazaar and its a massive warehouse which holds 170 stalls with such a huge variety of different things to purchase.

We spent 4 hours in there, soaking it all in... There was taxidermy, furniture and clothes... plus randomness... They even had a pair of Spiderman legs.

Enjoy

We will definitely be going back

It Is Time...

...to lose some weight!!!

I've gotten really slack in the 8 months we've been in the house and I need to step it up.

Last year i was hooping for exercise but the weather lately has just been too horrible to be outside so i've been getting on the Wii Fit each night. My (slightly pathetic) goal is to get on for at least 20 minutes each night after i get home from work.

I was doing well for the first two weeks but last week I didn't get on the damn things once. I planned to start my routine again today but woke up feeling very unwell and the only thing that makes me feel slightly better is to move as little as possible.

July 2011 and May 2012 are the same dress and you can see the difference 9 months has made.

Once the weather gets a little nicer i will get the hoop out and try and give myself more time each night to exercise. I want to set some goals and use my blog to keep me accountable, so hopefully i'll post them soon.

Fork This 68 - Sleeping or Dead

A trip to the beach this weekend. Not a hot day, but decent weather to sit outside and eat Fish 'n' Chips with family.

Fork This 67 - Andre The Giant, Apple

This weeks episode BJ shows you the giant apple he found. I think it's pretty gross so BJ stuck a googly eye on it and put it on the shelf in the kitchen.

This week he finally got rid of it (but not before filming an episode).

Fork This 66 - Special Agent Dale Murderer

I dont want to get Cooper in trouble with the FBI but i didn't witness this on the weekend and thought i'd share it with our fans... hahahaa

Afterwards i collected all the stuffing and performed some surgery on the ducky to bring him back to life.
