Mark Page enters the blogosphere!

It never stops being painted and it's a job in perpetual motion- until now. Painting the Forth Bridge that is. Actually more specifically the Forth Rail Bridge. There's nothing more spectacular than heading down the M90 and driving across the accompanying road bridge and looking at this feat of Victorian engineering. Actually traveling across by rail means instead you look in awe at the road bridge. Anyway, no sooner do they get to one end with a paint brush, then it's time to start all over again. Just like my house with emulsion. That is until now. With the development of a 30 year paint, a coat of this then, well it's 30 years of bad news for painter and decorators isn't it? If anybody travels down from Perth to work on that, you've got 2 years to sort out a backup plan.



Great song we are playing at the moment is Shining Light by Annie Lennox. Sounds familiar? It did to me, but I couldn't place it, until I visited Everyhit.com; the answer to all my musical conundrums. Well it was originally a hit for Ash in 2001. So no wonder I was struggling- rock track to Annie ballad. Good though.


Alright some videos for you to look at on You Tube. Mini Me (Page Junior) is a dab hand at this. He has uploaded a class goal from ex- Saints player Alan Kernaghan, albeit in his Man City days before he joined St Johnstone. Put Kerny's name in to come up trumps. Actually Al is godfather to the other Page Junior- Fraser. Another real stoater is Forrest Gump in One Minute. Yep, the full story, all lived out in 60 seconds on an artificially turfed hockey pitch. The movie brings back bad memories for me. When I went to see it at the cinema I had my car nicked and never saw it again. The car that is, but I've watched the movie again several times since.
