Ready for Action

'Action Heros' was the theme for Kirsty's 23rd bithday party. A whole 3 weeks since the last fancy dress, people were well up for it and I think the theme kind of fitted with the mood on base at the moment. There's loads of science going on (more on that coming) and seemingly thousands of outdoor jobs built up during the darkness. The light means everyone's up for the challenge; every day of decent weather we get we have to be ready for action...

Jules broke his ankle out kite skiing a couple of weeks ago, so Richard and Dean got plastered up to keep him company. Richard came as a stunt man, Dean as a slightly clumsy James Bond whilst Jules was, in his own words, "the ugly one from the good, the bad and the ugly."

Me as a Mighty Morphin Power Ranger. The gloves and skidoo helmet made eating dinner interesting. Later in the night I morphed into a giant robot Rhino but sadly, no photos.
