The Monkey-Fish Swim


Due to some malfunction in my good judgement gene, at some point between May and September 2012 - I plan to swim the 1.2 miles across the river Forth between the two Queensferrys, North & South...

I was going to name the endeavour "The Great Immune System Challange", or "Anything to Get Away From Fife (A GAFF)" but Michelle came up with "The Monkey-Fish" (from where, or for why, I have no idea...no suggestions please!) and it stuck.

James Murdoch's Memory

I'm part of a minor social media sensation! The boys at 'Irkafirka' on Twitter have thrown the doors open to us amatuer cartoonists...

Shoulder On!

The same rope swing that got Scott G in "Snapshot" got me too when I was 17 and tried to swing on it standing on the stick instead of sitting on it...cue suspension over a twenty foot drop hanging by one (dislocated) arm! Mum's verdict? - "Don't be rediculous! If you'd dislocated your shoulder, it would be agony!"

"....erm, hello?!"

Two nights later, diving into the swimming pool - I decided to do a Quasi Modo impersonation - with my arm coming out of my side! Now, that was agony!

Emma's Idea

Got a bit of Blogger's Block (sounds medical,eh? but I mean of the writer's variety!) and haven't been drawing for a bit - so Emma suggested that I post one of her drawings (one with a light shining above her head) to get me going again!




I think it might just work!
