The Inaugural Rokko Super Cup

As mentioned previously I reluctantly took part in a eleven a side football match in honour of my two good friends who recently turned 30. A lot of time and energy went into the planning of this event right down to a trophy and winners medals. As you can imagine this was started in a light hearted fashion with an emphasis on taking part rather than winning. However, all those good intentions disappeared within five seconds on the game beginning.

I don't play football so I was as much use as an instruction manual written in ancient Sumerian. I did try my hardest but as these photos show I am not the most graceful of men!


Here are the birthday boys. Nik on the left with yellow socks and Dan (Rokko) in white. The good looking guy lazily jogging on the right is me!


This is the only shot of me contributing to the game without fouling someone. Although you have to question the tactics of putting the slowest and least experienced player (me) against the fastest man on the pitch! The only other times I stopped was when ran straight into him!


Here is the winning team! From right to left we have Tom, Neil, Matt, John, Dave (safe hands), Archie, me, Trig (The destroyer), Nik, Kayleigh and Luke. The game finished 9-8!

New giftware designs

I know that it's customary to feel a little melancholy on a Monday but I must say I'm feeling rather good. I had a really nice weekend playing an eleven a side football match and following that up with drinks and merry making. Ok I feel like I've been hit repeatedly with a shovel and my body aches all over but apart from that it's left me in a very good mood. I'm very much looking forward to seeing my photography friends photos!

Anyway, I thought I'd update you on some new work I've been doing for my giftware rep. I won't be doing any new work for him this week as I'll be printing and mounting stuff instead. Fingers crossed the economic situation in the US doesn't effect sales.

Floppy disk sound out!

It's typical that a friend of mine suddenly decides he wants my Floppy Disk T-shirt and they've now sold out. He's had a year and somehow it's my fault. Well tough luck!

Limbo

Hello! I'm not much of gamer but I had to mention Limbo. I stumbled across it while procrastinating on the Internet and I was so impressed by how stylish and atmospheric it looked.

Design for sale @ Shirt.Woot!

Good day to you. I hope you had a pleasant weekend. Mine involved a barbecue and far too much food to be eaten by a man of medium build such as myself.

This post is a little late in the day, but my design Smarter than the average bear is available to buy at Shirt.Woot! Considering all the trouble I went through with this design it is very satisfying to see it up for sale knowing that I will not have to worry about anymore maths related amendments. I just need to send a copy of the t-shirt to the very kind astrophysics major who helped me out with the equation. What a nice chap!

Masculine gift bags

I've done some gift bags for guys covering many manly interests like cooking meat, drinking beer, sports and fixing stuff. I'm not so good at any of the above sadly.

The Shredder

My design "The Shredder" is now up for sale at J!NX. I think it looks good on white although I still prefer it as it was intended on grey. Oh well. It's their design now so they can do as they please!
