the photoshopping looks a bit too obvious to me, but hey!

hah, i am indeed a photoshop novice :op

This may sound like an odd question but does rob lonsdale also go by the name of "dog"?

ha ha, smeggles... yes you are correct.

Well hello there, I recognised you in your photo. Its Meg, Ewan's mate that pissed off to Aberdeen with her bf Chris. I thought "Ooh thats a good photo, aye! 'Ang on a minute! I know that chap! It's Steve McClure ... Oh wait ..." :D

It would not look so obvious with just half the amount of blur i reckon

Hi Meg!! ha ha.. it was a bit random! lol How are you doing?? Still enjoying scotland??

thanks Pylon King - i will have another play in photoshop this morning

Yes still enjoying it very much. I can testify that Aberdeen is the Sheffield of the north, although I haven't had a sun tan since we moved here! The weather is usually good but the sun's rays only deal us a glancing blow up here! Wanting to do some more winter stuff before we move back. How are you guys doing? How is the mountain biking?
