Pets Allowed? Neigh!

Category: In The MediaChrisM @ 5:01 am

At least not all pets are welcome at the Wilcox Memorial hospital over in Hawaii. To be honest, in Britain at least, I’ve not heard of even cats and dogs being allowed on the wards, but one helpful relative decided to cheer up a patient by bring in their favourite horse! This was not some encounter through a ground floor window, no this involved the horse being ‘smuggled’ in (LMAO at that, not really something you can hide up your jumper, is it?), into a lift, and up to the third floor before security noticed and ejected both man and beast. As it turns out, it was not even the right horse!
10/10 for the effort, 2/10 for the brain activity of the relative.

Irish Waves…

Category: PicturesChrisM @ 4:33 am

If you take a quick look at the 2nd photo, below, you would be forgiven for assuming it was taken near Hawaii or some tropical island with a history of intimidating waves…
Well, the area is actually off shore from Donegal Bay, in the Republic of Ireland! Although weather warnings had been broadcast, Duncan Scott and friends had already experienced towing each other out into huge waves, and decided to give it a shot.
See directly below for the transport they used to get out into the action.

And here is a shot of one of them; some of the footage shot may be used in a film (Waveriders (I’m guessing the film’s crew expertise lie in the waves, not original titles)) next year.
Hawaii --- Nope Ireland!
