Alright TEAM!
How are we doing? Boil some coffe if ur Canadian, Scandinavian or American, if youre from The United Kingdom then brew that tea, high time again for V.Man (TM) news, and all the camaraderie that goes with it!
Been going through a staggering amount of sun lollies recently, who can resist such a refreshing taste? Top flavour has to be green, then red, then orange, with the rest all good enough to be tied together for equal honours in 4th.
Gym and work going very well as always, but onto the meat of the issue, last weeks swim session with George (G.Man, also TM), was an event worthy of its own screenplay. The tomfoolery began, humorously enough, when it transpired that G.Man was minus swim shorts for the evenings aquatic activities, which included water football, water slide, and water basketball. Alas, The V.Man came to the rescue yet again and Christian Baled George out of a tight spot, summoning all my guile, lending him a pair of my prized blue, trademark adidas sports shorts. I have two pairs, and I was wearing the other pair. How it must have looked to the casual observer, one can only imagine, but I heard a few wolf whistles and saw many people "double take" as we minced around side by side in matching attire. The shame of it, a disgrace. I half-expected the "Queer Eye for the Straight Guy" team of 5 overtly camp, bizarre yet well-meaning gay men to get wind of what was happening at Laugardagur swimming pool, and come party with us in the hot tub, where we could drink fruit juice with miniature umbrellas in, wear cucumber slices over our eyes, and listen to Erasure, Wham, and Elton John classics as we discuss this seasons fashions.But that was just a pipe dream, and they didnt show up.
Anyway, I bicycle kicked a volleyball in the main pool, that thing was travelling so fast that you could hear the sonic boom, its intended target, a plucky young man galavanting around in the summer sun wearing a truly unforgivable pair of bermuda shorts, Equilibrium restored by The V though, that kid wasnt gonna get away with that, as the ball arrowed right at him and clocked him full in the jaw , sending him reeling, and sending us into uproarous laughter!
Next up, waterslide action for "Sharky (me) and George", each of us egging on the other to fire down, in an attempt to launch ourselves down at breakneck speed. Mothers were covering the eyes of their children, and grown men were wincing out loud and breathing through pursed lips as every man and his dog witnessed us getting rifled out of the tube with serious authority, time and again. Looked like a scene from "Running Man", starring Arnold, "Get down!"
At this point, I must mention how hilarious i find "Donkey" from the Shrek films, and well, Eddie Murphy in general. Uber amusing, gaze on Donkeys genius, he´s more quick witted than Victor Meldrew.
Finally, because once again I have produced a blog of biblical proportions, I will end the blog talking about the SpongeBob Squarepants style fancy dress party which took place at our pad on Saturday night. The people in our apartment blog have some serious gripes now with the kids at 3HH, got a phone call from program leader Arndis today saying that our fellow residents are sick and tired of spending their evenings with cotton wool in their ears courtesy of our exuberant FIFA celebrations, wall to wall bang loud music, and general "young" lifestyle we all lead. The V.Man dressed as a Greek God, well, Roman, a God at any rate. Note the genius leaves to add to the effect. It took me 3o mins to apply that paint, some guy went as Jesus, Smari went in drag, The Girl An from Belgium as a Viking, and some other guy had a sweet mafia costume. Funniest thing was Smari getting super drunk and taking a hell of a tumble over a table, the bang was so loud it knocked out someones fillings. He´s a big guy, and all I could do was laugh because the sound was so cacophonous I thought it would smash the glass. He just laid there afterwards for a couple of seconds, hammered, then came to and partied on! What a trooper!
Somehow found myself crashing a bachelorette party on the 4th floor, used my old line of "Have a great marriage!", but left pretty quickly when someone thought I was a stripper due to my attire. Returned to our party and had a blast!
Later folks, work to be done, no rest for The V.
