Bastian quite rightly “outed” me in a comment forum, the “outing” was for uploading the following video to YouTube (it was going to be a follow up post to this, but I forgot to post it here because I’m a wrong’n.)

I’m going away now to watch 2012, Inception and some of these.

In the words of one of my heroes, Maurice Moss (aka Richard Ayoade)..

(Not forgetting of course David Bellamy, Patrick Moore, Felicity Kendal, Tony Robinson, Alice Roberts and David Attenborough.)

I’m not going to dwell on this (not online, anyway) because we’re coping (and most of the time not coping) with this together, but Ala‘s daddy, Waldek, died on Sunday the 19th of September. We flew out to Poland as soon as we heard and stayed for a week visiting him and helping with the arrangements. Ala already had a ticket booked to go and see him on Monday the 20th, but it wasn’t to be. I’ll just leave it with this..

“The world lost a wonderful man this morning, take care Tata, I’m so happy we got to hang out all those times and thank you for welcoming me into your family so warmly.

Please go and give love to Ala, she needs it..“

And..

“The funeral’s in four hours, we’ve been to see him every day since we arrived (we went suit shopping for him and found the most gangster pinstripe suit and beautiful shoes money could buy), he always wanted a pinstripe suit you see. He looks so handsome and peaceful, with a little smile on his face.

It’s been really hard seeing Ala so upset though, so hard..“

I’m doing everything I can to help her through this, I just wish I could do more.

And to change the subject a little because I’m/we’re getting sad again, well, sadder than we were already, Steve very kindly gave both of us magic fingers – Yep, we have finger magnet implants, And they’re so much fun!

He also did a cracking job fixing my lobe..

Go Ala! Steve Haworth will be at my missus‘s Tattoo and Piercing studio in September..

This part will make no sense as it relates to my IAM blog – It was a bit of a rush job but my old forums are back up (apologies if you were a member of any of the private forums – message me if you’d like me to add you again), I’m not looking forward to uploading all my galleries again, it’s going to be tedious! No wait, teeedious!!

Oh oh, just had a lovely phone call from LovelyBum, I like it when she calls. Thanks darling, you made my day!

For those “out of the loop” she’s in Poland (Europe) looking after her dad who isn’t well and I’m back in London (Europe), but Europe’s big which means she’s a long, long way away, sigh.

Finally, here are some photos, most of which will probably need explaining but I’m too lazy today, so to see them in context you’ll have to have seen them on Facebook with the captions..
