Explaining the Name

Posted on July 5, 2007
For those who may wonder "Why choose Wellies are Like Bikes?" here is your answer...
When down in Cork taking pictures for the berries website, Ian was placing some wellies on some random steps with great excitement. He was so happy to be taking photos of wellies that he turned to me and Jonny and said...
"Wellies are like bikes, they are both easy to take pictures of"!!
So thats where the name came from. If you are thinking, "thats sad", then piss off and read someone else's blog, it was funny at the time.
In the near future this blog will keep you informed of my travelling exploits... Thats right, I's a travallah. There is a gallery to come soon. Don't be afraid to leave comments either and tell me how you are getting on, in the wet and miserable home land :)
Keeping it country,
Brian
The only thing missing was Joe. He was too cheap to come down with us

And that could be any Ian McKenna...

You and your wellies are sad.
P.S. the bog has stopped overflowing since you left...coincidence???
I'm sorry Brian, I'm just acting out because I am deeply devastated that you have left. I'll give you my years salary if you stay for the rest of the week. Please please please don't go

We'll give you the rest of our kebab. That's usually enough in your case.

Note from a strangely more (less?) aromatic office - Team Beard may be suffering from HUTS (Handset Uncertainty Tension Syndrome), so don't take their bitchy comments to heart!
