So I got the Spain away goalkeeper shirt a while back, in fact before it had even been worn in a match. I was unsure about the colour the printing would have been, probably yellow, but maybe white. Iker Casillas wore it in their last game not so long ago and the printing is in fact yellow like I guessed.
I found a place who does the printing and bought it a while ago, it finally came last week which I blogged about. Today I printed it onto my shirt. I hate to do it, I always think I am gonna mess it up, and then i’d have to buy a new shirt and more printing! 😛
Anyway it turned out fine, here it is:
I am happy the way it turned out 🙂 Printing on the back and small number on the front too. I have some other names and numbers to print on the home and away shirts, I am leaving that until Euro 2012 starts just in case they change numbers or the players don’t get picked.
Wow I have not posted all day. I was out in Newcastle last night, and it was a pretty good night. We went to a few different places that we don’t usually go to, to mix it up….Some of the places are not my scene but I like to go to different places because I get bored of the same old stuff. We went to Town Wall, Mimo, Jalou, Baby Lynch, Cosey Joes, Fleet Street, The Lodge and Ground Floor. Quite a few places! LOL!! Cosey Joes and Fleet Street are not really my thing, but they were alright I suppose 😛 Newcastle was packed because of St Paddy’s Day, so many people out, plenty wearing hats and green and things like that. O’Neils actually had a massive queue outside, something you’d NEVER normally see!
We were into Mimo and it absolutely STUNK! What is it with some of these bars that smell? There are a few which do, I could barely drink my drink it was so bad. I don’t understand why they don’t do something about the smell, it has put me off from going.
They had a sign which was already defaced, I took a pic for my Instagram…
We went to Jalou which used to be Destination, now it has a more “up market” feel to it, well apart from the alcohol. I asked for a Corona he said they don’t have that they have Desperado. I asked for a Budweiser he said we don’t have that we have Budvar. I got bored of asking so I had a vanilla vodka and Coke, which cost £6.40! Quite expensive. It may of been a double, the guy said something and I didn’t hear and just said “yeah” so maybe it was The pints were £4 and normal vodka and Coke over £5. I don’t really understand the places which try to be upmarket and have high prices, but sell rubbish/cheap vodka and bottles of beer. £6.40 is fine for a double of good brand vodka, like Absolut, but not generic cheap vodka.
Ended the night in Ground Floor, it was getting late in the night and it was only across the road from where we were, and I was so tired had to go home, via Subway and a turkey Sub of course 😉

Here are some of the events from Newcastle Fashion week 2011:
Today was the day when I got my Versace Cruise for H&M products! As I have already mentioned I completely forgot about this being released, I must of been asleep or something 😀 but luckily I was able to get lots of great things, probably most that I want out of the collection, apart from the dressing gown 🙁 I have seen a few images of it and it looks amazing! I would buy it if it comes available, it might, so watch this space 😉
It is back! Take Me Out series 3 is here. Starting this Saturday, 7th January Take Me Out is back for it’s third series hosted once again by Paddy McGuinness:)
ITV have also added an “after show” which will air on ITV2 straight after the programme on ITV1.
As always this will be the number 1 blog for Take Me Out, so stay tuned 😉 You can see the latest men’s interest topics over on the men’s lifestyle blog homepage which has daily updates, tips and guides for all guys.
This is a very rare shirt at the moment, it is the Spain away/alternative goalkeeper shirt for 2012. You may have seen my post with the Spain Casillas 2012 Goalkeeper shirt which I love, but I like this one just as much.
Before I bought it I had not seen it “in the flesh” before, it has not been worn in any Spain game yet, so maybe I have worn it before Casillas has! I could not get it printed, I wish that I could, but I imagine it is because it is so new, I have not even seen the colour which the printing would be, I would imagine white as I think that would look best, but it may be golden yellow or something.
Soft kitty, warm kitty little ball of fur. Happy kitty, sleepy kitty, purr, purr, purr. I love it!
Of course is the fron The Big Bang Theory, so if you are a fan of the show you will know the phrase, if not then I guess you won’t.
The quality is really really good, and I am very pleased with it. Super soft, comfortable and a great fit. I had lots of trouble trying to find this in a mens style, most sell it in a womens fitted tee, but I eventually found it.
I was browsing around the Internet looking for fashion and t shirts like I usually do, and found this t-shirt. I have bought a few cartoon inspired t shirts very recently as you will know if you read my blog, the Johnny Bravo T Shirt and the Speedy Gonzales one too. Now I have this:
The Pink Panther T Shirt. “I’m just a panther lookin’ for a cougar“. haha love it!! When I saw it I had to have it, it will be pretty good for a night out 🙂
The t-shirt is (apparently) an officially licenced print, and is printed in a vintage style. The t-shirt is a nice fit and is soft cotton, and cost £25. The shirt style body is tubular, and for that kind of money I would want side seems as they are usually better quality, fit and last longer, having said that this is still a really nice tee 🙂
To be seen soon out and about in the town in Newcastle 😉
I got these t shirts and I think they are really great. I love these kinds of retro t shirts now, I think they are really cool and more and more labels are producing great graphics now and many people are wearing them.
I picked up a Johnny Bravo T Shirt and a Speedy Gonzales Arriba Arriba tee.
Johnny Bravo, such a legend and such a hero. JB will always stand for Johnny Bravo. What Would Johnny Braavo Do? That is the question we should all ask ourselves before doing pretty much anything 😛
I love this print, it is so good and is done in a retro style. The character is familiar of course, Speedy Gonzales, with his trademark phrase “Arriba Arriba Andale Andale!”. This t-shirt is such great quality, and is a longer length and a more fitted style than your standard tee which I love.
What do you think of retro/cartoon/tv style printed graphic t-shirts? Like I have said I really do like them. I think it brings out the personality of people, you have to not take yourself so seriously to wear something like this which is always a good thing. The characters are important too, things like Johnny Bravo and Speedy Gonzales brings back good memories for me, and probably others of my age.
I like having cult characters, not necessarily the most popular of the time, but memorable. I have seen a Doug (the cartoon from Nickelodeon) T Shirt which I have been thinking of buying for a long time. Not a big name cartoon, but those who remember it would love it 😀 I used to watch it all the time!
I have a few more tees coming soon, if you like these you may like them, stay tuned 😉
