Wouldn’t it be great if sang to you? would sang a ballad about Guinness and a surf board while Lovely would scream and shout.
Meanwhile would sing something or other. Not sure who he is. He won one of those x-factor things didn’t he?

I like my peace and quiet.

The German Deep Purple

Saturday, August 4th, 2007 by Donncha

This group of lads wandered into the old switching station on Caroline during the filming of Stanley Super 800’s video so I took their photo.

Apparently they are a Deep Purple cover band but it was hard to figure out what their name was because they hardly spoke a word of English and my is non-existant! They were playing in the Old Oak that night so chances are they’ll be back!

The guy in the back is in the Stanley Super 800 video. Look out for the bouncers, he’s one of them. I can’t remember his name, but I had a great chat with him during the filming.

Party in the park

Monday, July 9th, 2007 by Donncha

The Club on Douglas held a day out for the kids just over a week ago in Fitzgerald’s Park in . Unfortunately we arrived just as everything was wrapping up but I got a couple of shots off.

There was a great party atmosphere. Parents were there with kids, sitting around, chatting, and , and even a couple of dogs including Oscar! Next time we’ll try to make it earlier. Thanks Sharon for telling me it was on! See Mel in the background?

Unfortunately the light wasn’t the best and with fast moving legs, arms and bodies I was never going to fully freeze the action. More to come over the next few days.
