Be Excellent To Each Other

We decided to head into Telford at lunchtime for a bite to eat prior. It was my idea, and it took far longer than I thought it would.

You went for a bite to eat before a BBQ? Amazing...

It's ok, the chefs have a relaxed approach toward starting the fires. Worth the wait though.

I absolutely ate lunch before arriving. No way am I relying on Grim...'s project management for two meals in a row

The t-shirt/apron colour matching combined with the beard and shorts make you look vaguely monk-like. A Brother of the Order Of the BBQ.

Or because you can read?

I'm ok with that.

Plse action mail order company for your BBQ sauce!!

Just chucking in my belated thanks to Mr & Mrs Grim... for hosting. Had a great time as per usual, love you guys.

Only downside was I've had the lurgy ever since, so if any of you are rocking stinking colds it's probably my fault. Sorrrrry.

Indeed, Thanks one and all.

Question is, when are the Pete Pictures arriving?

Yeah, I want to see Cavey in the flesh!

Hope Pete's camera has "had a moment"

*clears throat, taps mic*

Is this thing on?

Attention!

Photographs of alcoholics will commence shortly...

...and also photographs of manly mystery.

Love it.

Yay!

... and beguiling feminine allure...

("That's enough trailer-guy hyping," - ed.)

Fleurgh. Right, that's 180 photographs in total that have made the cut. I'll upload them tomorrow morning to Google Drive and post the highlights in this thread, and PM a link to all attendees so they can pull photographs from it.

All the photographs are facebook friendly sizes, but if anyone wants a big print version then just PM me and cite the file name and I'll send on a bigger version to you. I'm off work tomorrow with the lurghy, so will be Beex-ready all day.

And now, for bed!

Yay!

Writing Prompt:

Craster's Glove... A Short Story of Horror

He sniffed the finger tips of the stained glove and the aroma of decayed badger flesh drifted lazily into his nostrils. He stood naked in the light of a crescent moon and wondered what it would feel like to howl like a wolf. Stupid man, he said out loud to no one as he dismissed the thought in a heartbeat, too long have I planned to act like a deranged lunatic. But maybe that is what I am, he thought as he banged the tin pot on his head with a wooden spoon to the tune of Dad's Army. Suddenly he heard a rustle in the bushes behind him...

Well know I know who's ghostwriting my autobiography.

... They'd found him. He'd been so careless. Why did he install Windows 10? Now they knew everything.

He ran. But only as far as the toolbox. He stooped, and rose again. Moonlight glinted on his sweaty brow as he turned, clutching the only thing that could help him now...

... a crossbow.

The lion eyed him warily from the leafy glade of Grim...'s back garden.

Okay folks, here we go - prepare yourself for BeexBQ ACTION ACTION ACTION with the BeexBQ Highlights!



"Awlright, let's get this party started!"



"Work a little more towards the gin, honey."



Behold! The Mighty Wall of Man!

"Ah, much better. Thank you."

And now... for MEN.

Damn straight btw...

"Yo, where's the beef?"



"Er, are you sure this is cooked guys? Ulp."



World's most awkwardly located hug.



"Keep the lid held down 'till it quits squealing, Grim."



"It's a boy!" "Congratulations!"

"I'm gonna put him on Broadway and charge two bits a gander."

They hadn't the heart to tell him.



"Two sausages each, you fat f**ks, that's all you're getting. TWO."



"And I'm right in thinking you took this with the panorama function, correct?"

"Indeed. It was the only way to fit it in when Craster had it all laid out on the table like that."



"I love you, dawg. Truth."

*choke* *gack*



"Sigh, so it was the Red Bull after all."

"Wheee! Yay! LALLYLALLYLALLY!"

And now, a caption break for assorted dudes and dudettes...











That guy had one saucy stalker.

"Remember, blow-don't-suck-blow-don't-suck-blow-don't-suck..."



"So then I said to 'im, look buddy, your car was like that when I got here. And as for your grandma, she shouldn't have mouthed off like that..."

And now for people looking just kinda cool...

I suspect it's looking a little late to remind Pete about http://peex.beex.co.uk , right?

Uh, it appears so.

Er. But I'll upload them there anyway! May as well keep on posting the highlights here though.

I have some impressive moob work going on in that last photo.

The one of Mali?

"Whee!"



"Fire in the hole!"



"MEGA-TSUNAMI!"

The cold, dead eyes of a serial-beexer.



"Hey kids, you too can look cool like me!"



"Steady, steady, stay on target..."



"Hey, get a load of this guy!"



"These are your friends."

oh!! you swines

That second picture of the last lot is by far the best one. Awesome photography.

"Ooh! Careful!"



"My, but aren't you a pretty one? Care for a ride... in my VAN of PLEASURE?"



... starring in the new spy thriller, "The Lives of Beexers".



"He's the kind of hero BeexBQ needs, but not the hero BeexBQ deserves."



Campfire cool.

These are amazing!

Because I GUESS we're not FUN ENOUGH? HUH? IS THAT IT?



Introducing: NOIR KING. He is the KING of NOIR. "I'm the Noir King!"



"Come down to the Noir King's Castle of Noir for all your Noir Needs. Dames. Magnums. Slick streets. All of them cheap. And all noir."



"You want noir? I got it cheaper and I got it darker at the Noir Barn. Yes! I'm Mr Noir and I'm here to fulfill ALL of your noir needs. Say goodbye to the Noir King feeble shades of grey because when you go black, you can't go back with Mr Noir! That's Mr Noir! Klondike 911 911! The 911 is for police! POLICE-NOIR!"



"THAT'S MR NOIR!"

There's one of Curio up there where he's clearly happy planning to murder us all.

And now for the final few and the morning after. And everyone's favourite Beex-Dog!







Emphatically DON'T try this at home kids.



Uh, noir-country?



Man, those were good sausages.



Aw! Yay!

Phew. Done.

Okay, they're all uploaded to BeexPeex too - all 179 or so. Where I probably should have put them in the first place, but hey ho.

Sterling work, Pete. You are a photojournalist sans pareil.

Now to go change my facebook profile photo
