 | News 13/06/09 Banti Opening + Cafe Del Mar + Danzzu! View pics
Its that time of year again - when millions of sweaty tourists, surfers and project managers decend on the party capital of Alcornocales National Park and surrounding cork plantations. The Fly Cats were playing some serious guitar hero stuff in the garden, followed by Adams patio DJ action. Nine hours of partying was not enough for the Gibraltar possy - they started a naughty pool party in Sotogrande straight afterwards. Those pics to follow shortly... |
 | News 31/05/09 Simon gets a surprise! View pics
After 13 hours of cross globe travelling, Simon and Pramod arrive home, weary and soiled, to open the door to a surprising throng of passing party mexicans and Anias fabulous cake. It must have taken days to prepare, Ania you are the best. The hard core then went on to party down in Cafe del Mar, where we saw a black Michael Jackson and some serous Bollywood dance action from Pramod. |
 | News 27/02/09 Rachels Big Birthday View pics
Rachel, despite not looking a day over 25 and sometimes wearing boots with flames on, is now a Lady. The whole family were their wearing their spectacles. There was of course the usual party capers - dancing, eating cake and sitting down |
 | News 21/02/09 Renaud, Marit and Adam do it together View pics
Renaud, Marit and Adam celebrate getting old, and everyone comes to check out their mussels. Adam received an excellent present, a surf board made of hi-tech card. Looks like it will be good on the waves, although his paddle looks a bit floppy. Matthieu impresses us with his reserved dancing. |
 | News 15/10/08 El Capitan tiene 33 anos View pics
There was a huge turnout for his Big Day, or for the Free Buffet. The glorious haul of gifts included combat pants and a picture frame. Kerry got a candle, but that's another story. Renaud was a bit wasted from the night before - that's what happens when you have kids. No one jumped into the swimming pool or passed out, unfortunately. |
 | News 28/06/08 Anthony and Mariví get Married View pics
The registration took place in the red velvet clad town hall, and then proceeded to Casa Amarillo for wine, ham and cheese. A break of a few hours allowed the groom to go for a quick kite surf, then onto the sun set ceremony which took place in the palm tree surrounded lawns of Tres Mares. The magnificent outdoor reception was festooned with candles, carpets and sumptuous foods. And of course cake. Unfortunately I failed in my duty as the official photographer to capture all the important vents of the evening - I missed various members of the party falling in the pool fully clothed early in the morning. |
 | News 13/06/08 Cathy and Jim get Married View pics
Jim and Cathy and Buster got married in Tarifa. They had a beautiful blessing by Sylvia, which involved meditation, love, peace and lentils, with poetry reading by Jims Mum and a short speech from Sebastian. Rumour has it that Jim is changing his name to O'Hanlon. The reception was perfect: there was cake, dancing and Marina fell over and everything. Reception Pics Added |  |
 | News 07/06/08 Jim Stag View pics
It started well in Tribu, 50+ beers, 10+ pizzas, 2 rounds of Yaeger Meister and a free mojito from the lovely Danni. It got a bit messy outside Peppopotimus, where Chris showed us his jug swallowing technique. Luckily, I blew my entire evenings drink budget buying the round in Tribu, and only two people bought me drinks after that, so was pretty sober by the time the hard core surviors rocked up at cafe del mar at 5:30. It was closed. Renaud, Chris and Steve enjoyed an intemate night on our floor (pictures available on request). Adam, we are still waiting for the stripper... See also Stag Sailing Day. |
 | News 5/05/08 Walking around Chefchaouen View pics
Caroline had the great idea of spending the bank holiday weekend on a make-it-up-as-you-go-along walking trip to Chefchaouen, Morocco. Unfortunately, all of Spain had the same idea, so there were no hotels to be had. Luckily, the taxi driver (haggled down from 700 to 600 from Tangiers) knew of one outside town, which only cost €14 complete with flooding single toilet. The next day we found a hostel with free 2 rooms in the center of town, also with a single toilet blocked by a log of epic proportions. Walking through about 100 km2 of hash plants was interesting (we were told by the guide to take no photos, so we didnt). Bought a rug (as you do), and found the same one cheaper in Ikea (as you do). |
 | News 21/03/08 Samana Santa 2008 View pics
The Clu Clux Clan arrives in Tarifa, carrying Jesus and his mum. Jesus blesses our sausage, eggs and chocolate in Polish. On Sunday the 12 disciples of surf at them for breakfast with blessed pancakes. It was lovely. |
 | News 16/02/08 Tarifa Carnival 2008 View pics
Marina (as Marina) and Ania (as Abdul) started the evening by scoffing all our booze. Jim (as a Butt Pirate) went home early. Simon (also as Abdul) failed as a moroccan carpet salesman but passed as a slipper maker. Please state size (XL, XXL or canoe) when ordering. Don't ever give Cathy real gun. |
 | News 08/09/07 Big Jims 50th View pics
Guests came from as far as England and Portugal to celebrate Jim's half century score, which is quite impressive as he doesn't look a day over 49. We were slightly disappointed that there were no embarrassing baby photos, but I guess paper dosn't last that long without special treatment. |
 | News 26/07/07 Kwari in Hong Kong View pics
Whilst looking for the worlds longest escalator, we found the worlds smallest Beer festival, the July Fest. They couldn't wait till October. Kirky won the hot Tabasco girl burger eating competition and Sam bravely stood up to stiff competition from the Germans and Swiss, shortly before wetting himself. The views are from the excellent Intercontinental Hotel, where we did huge amounts of work (no, really) |
 | News 2/2/07 Simons 40th in Tarifa View pics
You are only 40 once, if you are lucky. So its worth celebrating. 6 months of planning, 2 venue changes, a practice BBQ at Adams house, 3 excellent DJs?, a magnificent cake and about 3kg of chocolate covered strawberries later, we had the perfect party. Just added: Pics from climbing expedition to look for survivors. |
 | News 2/2/07 Sydney and Hong Kong Trip 2 View pics
80 hours of traveling, 5 days of meetings, 2 days of sight seeing. Sydney is cool city. We went down a submarine, and up in a helicopter with Eddie and Chris, which was awesome. On the way back, we stopped Hong Kong. It is an amazing place. 7 million people live on an island 14 miles long. There are very few lawn mower shops. At sunset there is a light show on all the skyscrapers. |
 | News 17/6/06 Irena and Karols Wedding, Węgorzewo, North Poland View pics
The stripper at the hen night was the stag! Before the wedding is the blessing, where the parents bless the marriage at home. The wedding went very well, except the photographer had canceled leaving me with 30 words of polish to stand in - I was more nervous than the bride! The reception was in Omega Stręgielek, a lakeside nature resort where we stayed. When we sat down, a bottle of Vodka was put infront of each person. You wont believe how much was drunk. Poland is a beautiful place, but the toilet paper is a bit harsh. |
 | News 3/6/06 Gib Smir Ralley 06 View pics
On friday at 1pm 41 craft set sail for Marina Smir in Morocco for the 5th Gibraltar regatta ralley thing. It should have been 42 but Chris and Spence had hangovers. We didnt leave till 3pm on Saturday. The crossing was good, we saw many Dolphins, a sun fish, a turtle and some plastic bags. Strategicly, we arrived as the BBQ was ready and the prizes were being handed out. Chris got a bottle of fiz for being the last last last boat. Some partying ensued, in which several people had to be carried back to their boats after falling over. |
 | News 11/3/06 Tarifa Carnival 06 View pics
Pirates were our theme this year, so Steve dressed up as a bear. We started off with dinner at Mason de Foz, followed by cocktails the best cookie and baylies desert at Casa de Cathy & Jim, followed by Cafe Central then Pepopotimus. We stopped briefly outside Mosquito to feel Chenias buttocks, and for Jim to have sex. He kept grabbing my weapon too. Matthew had the biggest hat which is amusing as he also had the biggest hanover. We witnessed a fight, and all because we borrowed a glass from Tribu. Sorry Danny, we wont do it again. |
 | News 7/11/05 Simon Breaks his foot
In a freak heroic dancing accident, the 5th metatarsal snapped down the middle. Apparently, this injury is common among top athletes. The chances of survival are good. For the next 6 months he cant walk or drive, and will rely on foraging in bins for sustenance. When the bone snapped, I had no experience of what to do with broken bones. Now I can tell you what to do and what not to do. Not to do includes going to St. Bernards Hospital, Gibraltar,
Full story as it unfolds

 | News 1/11/05 Spook Halloween Party III View pics
7 hours of cooking, 9 hours of partying, 4 hours of sleeping, 5 hours of cleaning up. Luckily there was no wind, or there would have been nothing to eat. The Spanish were shocked that there was raw cauliflower for dipping. They have never seen a vegetable in public before. If you want to download the full size originals, give me a shout. |
