SS10 Girls tees

I thought I'd show the flip side to the Men's tees, as the Girls' are just as awesome.

SS10 tees

Yes I should be posting stories of Vegas. I know that's all you want to read about. But really I can't get the 'hungry ass cockroaches' out of my head long enough to savour and share any good memories. One day, perhaps.....

Anyway, here are literally just a couple of my favourite tees from the SS10 collection out now. Outstanding graphics and quality -

Post Vegas Update

So quickly touching in after having just returned to VA Beach from Vegas. We've spent the entire day travelling, and had a delay, but made it back in one piece.

Vegas. What can I say? It served it's purpose on all levels. We had fun. We enjoyed a beautiful wedding ceremony. We gambled. And best of all we got the F out of there before we lost our minds.

It is just too surreal. And they don't call it Sin City for nothing. 3 days was more than enough for me and I was desperate to get back to reality. Vegas. It's just unbelieveable. You can do anything, at any time. And that my friends is not as good as it sounds.

But back to the plus points. Great hotel. Huge suite. Plenty of friendly staff and taxi drivers (note - saying Thank You rocks their world). And a big thank you to all at Bada Bing who took good care of us on the Tuesday night. The evening definitely started off slow but we soon relaxed and had us a great time. Special thanks to Vinnie Vegas for picking us up and getting us home. To 'Veronica' who I shared an intimate chat with..........about our children. I hope she and Gianno are well, and Gianno's daddy Paul Wall(* edit below). Yes. I know right? You go to try and rock out with your c*ck out and end up talking about at what age your babies started to walk and talk, how much of the alphabet they can say etc. Sexy or what. Add that club to my list of 'friendly' nights out. Didn't need to wear two pairs of pants in the end. Oh well better to be safe than sorry. Oh and after saying I got no enjoyment from gambling, Boots and I played Blackjack at the Hooters casino and I was up $75 on my first try. Then I blew it all. Thank you Boots for confirming that I do not get any enjoyment from gambling. That's not true. It was fun but I hate losing money, even someone elses money.

It was awesome to hang out with my brothers, Trev, Vicky, Jelly and Aymen. I actually hurt my stomach laughing so much with them all over the three days. I'll post some stories when I get a bit more sleep and can think clearer.

Now back to enjoying my time with my nephews, Keith and Bells. One day left. Love to all.

* Apparently research shows Paul has been happily married since 2005 and has a son and a daughter from this marriage. Not so sure about "Veronica's" story now.

End of 2009, start of 2010

This year has absolutely flown by, so time for a very quick recap.

Some highlights for me were my daughter's 1st birthday, and my son's 3rd birthday.

Both my babies have grown so much and their personalities are absolutely shining through. They're both very loved at their Nursery and making great progress. I'm already so proud of them both, and in turn the achievments of my wife and myself in raising such great little people.

We shared a very stress free Christmas and New Year as a family at home.

Work is going great for me. I got promoted and enjoyed a fantastic Christmas party, with Tommy Hilfiger in attendance. I love travelling to work every day on the train, ipod on blast, and I'm always trying to find ways of over achieving where ever possible in my role.

I've been able to keep in touch with some good buddies from overseas. Shouts to Paul, Ewa, Adam, Anothy, Troy, James and many others. Hope to see some of you very soon.

I was fortunate enough to go to two days of the International London Tattoo Convention, and meet up with one of the coolest dudes on the planet Chuey Quintanar. He worked out a killer tattoo to which I am very proud to wear.

My brother returned safely from his work in the Middle East. I'm proud of you bro and can't wait to see you and your family in a couple of weeks.

My other brother paid me a visit and we really enjoyed his company for the short time we saw him, before and after his hush hush no tales trip to Latvia. No harm done?

Not a highlight but definitely an honourable mention, we lost my Granny Joy, and we miss her dearly.

I grew a beard and have maintained it, to some people's delight, and others' dispair ha ha ha

And just to finish off, my family have been in good health and couldn't be happier.

I'm sure I have missed off lots and lots but I promise I won't have forgotten anything positive that's happened in 2009.


And so to 2010.

More hard work. More time with the family. More exercise. More adventures. Bigger and better ideas. Positivity to rule throughout. These aren't resolutions, no one sticks to those. These are promises, to myself.

I'm off to Virginia and Vegas in just over two weeks and I'm really looking forward to the trip. I will miss my wife and babies very much but Daddy will be home before you know it.

Love to all my family and friends. Much more to come. Hello 2010.

Billionaire Boys Club/Ice Cream ‘Satellite’ Store

(Taken from Hypebeast.com)http://hypebeast.com/2009/12/billionaire-boys-club-ice-cream-satellite-store/

"While having a string of success in Europe where its collections are stocked in some of the most highly regarded boutiques – including colette (Paris) and Firmament (Berlin) and department stores including Harvey Nichols and Selfridges, the BBC/Ice Cream will be opening an one off ‘Satellite’ store in London, located next to Bape London. The temporary store will be stocking exclusive items in an environment which reflects the flagship stores in Tokyo, Hong Kong and New York. It will also be hosting Neil Bedford’s first solo photography exhibition showcasing a strong collection of black and white prints of N*E*R*D. The BBC/Ice Cream ‘Satellite’ Store will be open from December 12th for a limited time only."

So I popped by on lunch yesterday, and also after a pint at the pub, to see how the work was going on getting the store ready for today's opening. Basically the space was a shell to start with, and by early evening they had decals in the windows and photos on the wall. I would imagine they worked most of the night to get it ready. Will be good to stop by on Monday and see the finished article. Will take some photos if I can.



Edit - been having somewhat of a busy week. Didn't see the opening party, and haven't been in store.
