It was time for me to roll up my sleeves and see if I still had it in me. Why put everybody else to the test, when I can do these things myself? Ladies and gentlemen, get ready for MY OWN homemade burgers! Here’s the secret recipe: Take the leanest steak mince you can find, …
This was forwarded to me as an email, so I don’t know who owns these pictures – whoever sent them off in the first place, thank you very much – they’re soooo funny! [singlepic id=289 w=320 h=240 float=] [nggallery id=13]
On a spontaneous trip to meet Al Monty and JB, we checked out this very wine based gastropub in the centre of Verulamium, or better known as St. Albans. A decent burger, with plenty of oompf. They do the 8oz and 10oz version, with various toppings and in various styles. Bacon, Emmental Cheese, baby tomatoes, …
Here’s a project Julia and I started last year: take a picture of all the Miami Beach Huts. Shame neither money nor time allows us to go back this year and finish the series, but it’s on the backburner. Here’s what we have so far, all the beach huts from South Pointe to 15th Street. …
Having received a raving review on the Beef Burger, I decided to give Deliverance another go. However, on the Chicken Burger, they couldn’t quite “deliver”. With the usual sweaty chips and all the ingredients you would expect from a good burger, this one came to the office luke warm. On top of all that, the …
There’s me having a creative blitz, only to find out someone has already done it! Since I’ve started my video blogging extravaganza Today in My Life, I’m really getting into it. In fact, it’s feeding into all kinds of other ideas I’m getting. You could argue, I’m inspiring myself – that’s a very interesting experience! …
Sometimes, nothing says it better than a burger from a kebab shop. Enter the Seven Sisters Kebab and Pizza store. It’s been there forever, and although they were looking for a buyer not 12 months ago, the FOR SALE sign is gone for good and I understand in broken English that the proprietor is eager …
Having to do my VAT return, although I’d rather like to be outside with my wife.
The start of a brand new series.
STOP THE PRESS: we’ve got a brand new series coming to versluis.com! Discovering more and more functions of my superb little Casio Exilim camera, I’ve been playing around with the YouTube uploader today. It’s the ideal tool to do video blogging, and is obviously one of the best platforms for blogging with my pretty face. …
I’ve discovered this highly embarrassing gem from my dubious German past the other day: In this sketch from 1994, my colleague Andre Grossman and I put on this production of a highly working class couple. I’m playing the mad mother, he’s my drunk husband. We used to be fans of Schmidteinander, a cult comedy show …
[flashvideo file=”/video/water-glass.flv” /] For this video, I’ve filled up 15 glasses of water in my kitchen (the same glass actually). Although not really noticable, all footage is shot in slow motion using my Sony HDR-HC9E. I’m still excited about that feature. It got a bit tricky to put all the shots together, and I had …
Julia and I were out shopping yesterday, and discovered this tiny new Casio Exilim camera that does slow motion video recordings. Looking at this, I remember that my Sony HDR-HC9 has this function, and that I’ve never played with it before. We got pretty excited, it’s very inspiring, and this is what came out this …
It constantly amuses me that all internet marketing gurus are so very very rich, yet they find nothing better to do with their time than to sell us how they did it. Haven’t you got a yacht to ride, a beach to sip cocktails at or blackjack tables that needs your attention? Here’s what I’ve …
With the series finale of Missing Live on Good Friday, it’s both sad and a relief that 4 weeks of mayhem have come to an end. I’m relieved because a nasty cold caught me with my pants down last week and I can do with some recovery time; at the same time I’m sad because …
Let me start by bringing you a classic video from the past: none other than Phil Fearon and Galaxy, “Everybody’s Laughing”. I remember listening to this a lot 20 years ago, it brings back memories. Enjoy! I’m currently busier than every, and it’s really enjoyable too (and accounts for the lack of updates recently). Let …
A perk of freelance work is the occasional free food that comes with a strenuous long shift. When we do Premier League at the weekend, we get a meal from http://www.deliverance.co.uk, and of course Burger and Chips is a classic among colleagues. Deliverance send food into West London and cook anything from Chinese, Thai, Indian, …
Excellent! Bloody excellent is all I can say! But to get a consistent review across the board, we’ll have to define some variables first that make up a good burger. I tend to expect a ballpark figure of £10 for such a meal. Here’s my thoughts on this one: THE BURGER: SUPERB stuff. About an …
