What was the event? And what's sunrise got to do with anything?

:-s Confused!

[Spiderman]

Nice pics.... looks like fun :)

What was the event? And what's sunrise got to do with anything?

:-s Confused!

Originaly the idea was to meet at 4am and ride somewhere and watch the sunrise. But it was too cloudy so we decided not to go that early and watch dark clouds turn to slightly lighter clouds.

[walnuts]

Clunk.

The penny drops!

[Spiderman]

aaaAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH!!!!

Just spent the last hour preparing and uploading all my pics. Wasted my comic genius on some captions and for what?

For bloody Opera to crash on me and loose it all. :cry:

Cant be arsed to do it again tonite, ive got cold pizza and a nice :smt033 waiting for me in the bedroom. And the delectable Mrs spidey has just stepped out the shower and looks and smells luvery :love:

WTF am i doing even writing this. You lot ca.....

*click* *bZzzzzzz*

[Sid Squid]

Stop whining and get the bloody pics up.

Mind you if Mrs Spiderman was in a similar state and I were there...:wink:

Well, maybe the pics could wait for a while. But not forever, c'mon, get on with it.

[Spiderman]

yeh i know, its all my own fault.

I was gonna do them at lunchtime today but had lunch with my mum instead. Was hoping to do them tonite but were at Mrs Spidey's dads for dinner and i'm sure i'll be too shagged out to bother to turn the comp on when i get home tonite.

Maybe tomorrow :roll:

[Spiderman]

Ok, here they are again.

My captions were soooooooo funny first time round but as with all comedy geniuses... i cant remember a gag after i tell it. So these will have to do you.
