Barbie done had a bad day...

Giles looking 'dashing'.

2005-05-16T14:55:00.000-07:00

This is my bum, I'll make him do anything I damn well please.

"When I grow up, I'd like to be the Lord Justice Clerk..."

2005-05-16T14:33:00.000-07:00

See when we play dress-up? We *really* play dress up!

2005-05-16T12:10:00.000-07:00

Laura suited the robes ridiculously well.

2005-05-16T12:09:00.000-07:00

Laura shows she lacks the decorum to be a judge.

2005-05-16T12:08:00.001-07:00

Lord Rome presiding....

Rome at the top of the Scott Monument

Not so secret that I wasn't allowed to read it, Monkey got a look too!

2005-05-16T12:05:00.000-07:00

Tamzene's super secret book.

2005-05-16T12:04:00.002-07:00

Me, Monkey and Tamzene enjoy a cuddle on the road home.

2005-05-16T12:04:00.001-07:00

I suit hats. Just not hats made for people 1/3 of my body weight.

2005-05-16T12:04:00.000-07:00

Rome's not bad at pulling faces either and this was BEFORE we went to the zoo to see the chimps!

2005-05-16T12:03:00.001-07:00

I pull a damn fine face...

2005-05-16T12:03:00.000-07:00

We found an ice-schlong on the ice-berg. We were adult and classy and didn't snap it off and run around showing it to everyone. *cough*

2005-05-16T12:02:00.001-07:00

Tamzene tries very hard not to laugh. We were trying very hard not to notice that there was an extra 2 feet of robe radiating out from her feet. It's hard being a judge when you're 4 feet tall...

2005-05-16T12:02:00.000-07:00

We only stepped into the room to look at the robes and wigs and they fell onto the kids!

2005-05-16T12:01:00.000-07:00

Laura shows she absolutely doesn't lack the poise to wear judicial robes.

2005-05-16T12:00:00.001-07:00

Lady Tamzene, check the posture!

2005-05-16T12:00:00.000-07:00

Tamzene at the top of the Scott Monument.

I have no idea, never give your camera phone to an 8 year old.

2005-05-16T11:59:00.000-07:00

Monkey wear's Tamzene's hat and carries it off remarkably well!

2005-05-16T11:58:00.000-07:00

Never store big bottle of beer in your freezer, kids. Stay in school.

2005-04-28T12:26:00.000-07:00

Mog on having all her friends leap out shouting "Surprise". We're good at that.

Stab wounds tend to be inflicted deliberately and differ from punctures in their size and shape. Stab wounds are often inflicted by implements with both sharp edges and points, leading to a deep downward wound with badly cut edges.

2005-02-23T14:49:00.000-08:00

Embedded object or foreign body, in this case, a shard of glass. A complex injury and one that leads to an obvious, but misguided immediate treatment. Initial reactions are to remove embedded objects, but this may exacerbate existing trauma; foreign objects can also serve a purpose in plugging severed blood vessels and thusly removal can lead to sudden, unexpected and significant blood loss.

2005-02-23T14:47:00.000-08:00

Abrasion, a removal of the epidermis, usually with significant but rarely dangerous bleeding from the capillaries. Common in pedestrian v vehicle RTAs and sporting injuries, foreign material (soil, grit, vegetation) is often present, as seen here.

2005-02-23T14:44:00.000-08:00

Puncture wound, such as from a needle, spike or tooth. Minimal bloodloss, but can be deeper than supposed. Infective material is often carried on the instrument to the base of the hole, complicating an otherwise simple injury.

2005-02-23T14:42:00.000-08:00

Gunshot entry wound. Minimal tissue damage at this point, with less blood loss than is usually supposed. The wound adopts the shape of the projectile exactly. Dark 'scratchings' are visible near the top, showing localised powder burns, due to the muzzle of the gun being placed against the skin at the time of shooting.

2005-02-23T14:40:00.000-08:00

Gunshot exit wound, significantly larger than the actual projectile, this wound shows the shape of the force exerted by the bullet as it moves through the body. Significant tissue loss is present and bone fragments are clearly visible.

2005-02-23T14:39:00.000-08:00

Laceration, a ripping of the wound edges, such as would be found when cutting yourself on barbed wire or jagged metal.

2005-02-23T14:38:00.000-08:00

The incision, a nice, clean edged cut, such as from a razor

Fran blows cigar smoke in the bunkers (this is not a euphemism).

2005-02-23T14:34:00.000-08:00

Luka. Look at the eeeeeeyes.

2005-02-23T14:32:00.000-08:00

Why *else* would you have a baby, if not to put afro wigs on her?

2005-02-06T17:15:00.000-08:00

Just after singing her a filthy, filthy lullabye.

2005-02-06T17:12:00.000-08:00

Shades and an 80's bomber jacket? Why yes, I did order the cheese, thankyou.

2005-02-06T17:11:00.000-08:00

It's hard work beind this gorgeous.

I never taught him to shoot his cuffs, I promise, he just did it!

My Girls

2005-02-06T16:43:00.000-08:00

Two of my favourite women in the world, my two pseudo-sisters.

Free to bleed on people.

2005-02-06T16:41:00.000-08:00

This is what it looks like when you've just been told you're not terminally ill. It's a good look, I think. That's half of the parents, over on the right.

see how lucky I am?

Giles' Red Pubes

As promised, I wonder if I should get permission from people before posting photos of their most intimates...?
