Someone has taken
their love of sequels one step too far....
Well I'm back again, sooner than you'd expect, though not really or
is it? By this point, I take longer breaks between blogs than
Remember When or Square Eyes, both favourite podcasts of mine (the way my typing of
these blogs go, it could soon be time to go see Jaws 19 by Max
Spielberg and de hydrate your pizzas).... it maybe sooner than anyone
wants though, unless there's a gigantic worldwide campaign for my
return to blogging furiously about movies and in this case, the
spoooooky ones. But hey, some people want to watch the world burn. So
it is that we return to the fray with this new blog, but hey I hear
you ask, what's new for Rob or Ribby? But never Carson, despite what
people say....
I've been doing a lot of singing in the past and occasionally now
(well more in the past in the first stages of this blog as opposed to
more lately), adding a string to my varied bow of talents. It was the
open mic night at The Boulevard in Wigan and its more now the one at
Joe's Bar really.... both of which are my regular hanging out holes.
My group of uber talented friends including Sophelia, Pete, Liam,
Zach, Zoe, Emily, Calvin and Dylan (if you've seen him please call, he's
disappeared a lot) amongst a lot of others organize it and sing a
variety of brilliant tunes.... and after realising how simple it is
to have a go, I had started doing it regularly, but weaned off a bit
recently, due to lack of resources. I can't boast I'm any great
shakes but I've done ok and tried new and cool things in moderation.
It's been a pure thrill and hopefully will continue to be!
Of course, anyone who knows me well enough by now will know of my
fabulous side, relishing in dressing up in various guises and
outfits. When you realise you're good at something, you go at it and
perfect it to the ninth degree, and at the Alt.Studio in the heart of
Manchester, did don various guises and outfits for a day long
photoshoot in which I got to unleash various sides of me and various
incarnations (Bowie, 80s, Pulp Fiction, Rocky Horror) and properly
under go the model treatment, posing and pouting with the best of
them. It was an amazing day and an experience I will never forget, it
was truly incredible! And after paying it off for a while, I got my
photos and it was amazing and iconic, and I have a legion of fans
just for those looks, so I went a did it all over again just
recently.... nailing a glamorous Jessica Rabbit look as well as being
Hit Girl and kicking serious butt and even getting a few natural
photos to boot... it's a thing to behold and I recommend it highly!

being fantastic, it's a very exciting time for that, not to mention
all the music and TV that are around too...
And there's all the plenty of parties and fun times that occur, life
is great at the moment.... well and truly. Sure my work life could be
better, but it's getting there and with time I can fix that part of
my life and be 100% pure and simple happy frog! For now, everything
is still so awesome that I can't complain too much at all.... but enough about me anyway, and onto what's in store next when it finally is unleashed... which will be the final part of my countdown of my favourite horror movies, so maybe in time for next Halloween at this rate (unless you're here
to see the long rumoured reunion of the voice cast of Muppet Babies,
in which case I don't know what I can tell you, except we're
trying!).....
