Marathon vs. Golf

Big sporting weekend in retrospect.
While the masters were battling it out at Augusta National, Camil was fighting the rain and a 42km course in central london. The rain kicked in just before tower bridge, and lasted for a good 5 miles at least. The result: Defeated only by a bunch of Kenyans and Gordon Ramsey, in a time of 4h0min28s. He beat the Tanzanian Maasai warriors and 24 000 others.

What does this have to do with the PIMPhouse, you may ask. Well,

Gustav watched the marathon
Rob watched the golf
Kapil and Meelis played Wii golf
Bav was in London

Also, the PIMPhouse was a major sponsor of Camil's race, as the funds went to a very charitable cause.

Two months in pictures

In a fanatic attempt to revitalise the blog, more for the sake of perfectionism and documentation than an actual attempt at reaching an audience, here is what has happened in the last two months. Illustrated.

The two goats and a sports car dilemma was extended into Noah's amphibious vehicle creating a win-win situation for giraffes and elks alike. The Ready Steady Study table can be seen to the right.

The final of Hungover Kitchen: Kapil vs. Gustav. Here we see the contestants comparing dragon fruits and coconuts.

The competition was won by Gustav, whose culinary masterpiece is depicted above.

They also played some Carcassonne. And there was much rejoicing. The residents also picked up the habit of playing Wii Golf, to the extent that it was recognized as the main threat to the progression of their degree courses.

Meelis and Rob bought lots of drinks.


Remarkably, the whole house went to the 'hausfest' in the Redlandish hinterlands.

Rob was there also.

Robs birthday was celebrated, and he was generously given a whole 4-pack of Sainsbury's Basic beer.

Easter came, and the Ready Steady Study competition reached its peak. Everyone stopped working, except Rob, who at the time of writing is consolidating his lead.

Gustav bought an ice form for making shot glasses. Rob tried to make shot glasses from Sainsbury's Basic beer. In the vacuum of boredom that followed Easter, Gustav and Rob, left alone in the house, tried to use these for for drinking Lambrini and milk. There were some severe leaks.

Now the house is filling up again, and the residents are busy preparing for upcoming exams. Each in his own preferred way. Kapil is just getting started, while Rob is already pushing 60h weeks. Gustav spends most his time becoming an environmentalist, and Meelis has doubled the amount of days available for study (morning day (10am-6pm) and evening day (10pm-6am), separated by day night sleep and night night sleep). Bav is at home.
