Byron Bay, Australia - Hunk 'o' Hog Challenge
OK OK - Its the long and eagerly awaited Hunk 'o' Hog Challenge. Time for nick to eat 1KG of the finest* & nutritious** cuts of pork and chicken, swept of the floor and mixed with bones and offal.......With just an hour to complete his challenge if he is to be succesful and reap the rewards of three beers from me he sat down, prepared himself and began...
* Cheapest home brand
** 68g of saturated fat & 10g salt
1 - 9 mins - Chomping through the salty meat like the seasoned pro he is...
9-39 mins - Slow eating with the occasional break...seeming to have problems swallowing
39 - 59mins - Very slow, slowed down by coughing and some slight sickness, challenge unsucesful (nick awarded 0 beer for his effort)
1hr Plus - Lots of sick and nick moaning on about feeling ill.
All in all a good Monday! haha

Nimbin, Australia - Bob's five minutes of fame
22 years old and still can't grow a beard!
today was gonna be the day for frivolity! after rendezvousing with the film crew early doors, it was time to head off to the ganja capital of Oz, Nimbin! But hold on, not before Bob embarked on taking up acting, ha ha. There wasnt enough room in the paddle van for both of us, and as it was his birthday I let Bob go without kicking up a fuss. This was his day, and his chance to shine.
A quick shot was carried out, outside the hostel where Bob got a bit-part, alongside the cool stars of the show, Andy and Sam (made famous through their punk/thrash/rock n roll band, something and the pussycats). They were filmed saying it was time to leave Byron and hit Nimbin, with the best line coming from Bob; 'Im gonna find some weeds'. I couldnt stop pissing myself. It didnt end there though, they carried on filming all the way to Nimbin, out of the back of the crew's campervan which I was travelling in. f***ing funny stuff.
Getting in to Nimbin was an experience and a half. we booked into the rainbow retreat which was full of hippies and no rooms for us, only a tent, ha ha.
Walking aropund the village was funny, full of stoners. Bruno, you would love it, full of your sort!
So, I got reintroduced to the documentary through a staged performance, a random bumping in to everyone in the street which ws pretty funny, and considering we'd already had a couple of joints and a couple of beers, it was pulled off in a text book manner.
It was Boobs Birthday and we were damned if we wernet going to get high, so we spent the afternoon with beers and joints and the Corrs on widescreen! It was a bit like when we used to get stoned, things were funny as f*** and Bob, being a stoned moron parped up when he was tryin to take a photo of the sun; 'The sun's only coming out as half' As it was, it was the bloody MOON, the sun had gone down about an hour before! so everyone took the piss out of him.
There was supposed to be a rave kicking off later that night but we decided to go to bed in the freezing cold tent!
Because the film guys were leaving for Cooly the next day, we had no way of getting back to Byron, so we made a sign and decided to hitch it...it was bloody hot but things couldnt have wiorked out better. After about 45 mins we got out of Nimbin with some guy (after a hippy b****** nicked opur other ride) to Lismore. After that some other guy picked us up and dropped us within 7Km of Byron and from there a bit of a weird woman in a piece of s*** car tokk us to the door of the YHA. Heavy
