Badgers Abroad 2008 - The So F'in What Tour.....

Day 1 - Badgers In Transit 

T5 Bar - Surrey Badgers just knew the tour would go downhill from here......

 

International terrorist Mike 'The Jackal' Healy poses in his incident provoking t-shirt (officious twat of an airport security guard out of picture) 

 

 

Northern and Surrey Badgers enjoying a traditional Spanish welcome at Malaga Airport 

 

Stoners reacts to news that Smudgers underpants have been lost in transit

 

JD quickly establishes that Big Al has a pair of underpants (slightly worn) Smudge can borrow from the next morning

 

Smudge resigns himself to the fact that his gear isn't turning up.  Everyone else shows suitable concern and get stuck into the beers

 

Lord Rudders reacts to the rumour going round that Harriet is on the flight that's just landed 

 

Life from a Badgers perspective

 

Big Nige learns that he's actually drinking a pint of Sharpies piss

 

Having all arrived at Marbella (except for Smudgers grits), the Badger Captain presents H with a Badgering plaque for his gaff.  Or was it the age at which H made his last sensible suggestion?  Or his IQ?

 

Sharpo en-route to the first bar, sensibly keeping himself topped up

 

Stoners finally owns up to starting the rumour about Harriet being on the next flight.  Rudders considers bottling him

 

Rabid Badgers

 

Badgers Financial Department

 

JD makes the fatal suggestion of une pour le rue.  H looks less than impressed

 

Day 2; Santa Maria

 Mikey Blue models the latest in Badger golf socks

 

Match 1 - H & Genty Vs Brewer & Deely

 

Match 2 - Stoners & Rudders Vs Big Nige & Sharpo

 

Match 3 - Smudge & Mikey Blue Vs Big Al & EC

 

EC lines it up on the Par 3 7th.  In the distance is the green.  He didn't make it.......we may even find that ball next time we play there (if we also go hard left into the next development)

 

Apres Golf; as Caruso looks away in disgust, JD models the latest Badger headwear......

......then adds to his DVD collection.  Caruso still less than impressed

 

Sharpo goes incognito (that means in disguise Steve)

 

EC perks up when JD suggests a quiet night in with a couple of DVD's he's just picked up

 

Some mothers do 'ave em

 

Badgers in arms

 

In the Tavern, Big Al & Sharpo show the Spanish a thing or two about style

 

It's his head that's crooked, not the glasses 

 

Mr Potato Head models an accessory

 

Stoners & Mikey Blue show how to balance a telly on their heads

 

Then Mike really shows off.....

 

Mr Potato Head finds another new accessory

 

Smudge starts showing the strain of overly tight Spanish underpants.  He plays rugby you know

 

H (on the left) then dissappears off to catch up with his Marbella pals and spends the night at Kennys.......

 

JD contemplates another quiet night out in Marbella

 

Day 3; Santanna

JD prepare himself for the days golf with a two can breakfast and snooze.....

.....whereas Big Al prefers a few simple stretches by the pool to warm himself up

 

 

Down to their last can of beer, the Badgers decide on drastic action.  Buy more

 

Brewer goes all David Bellamy and decides to establish how dense the rough was.  Not as dense as him.  Pass that man another Sangria

 

Match 1 - Stoners & H Vs Big Nige & One Shirt/Underpants Smith

 

Match 2 - Big Al & Rudders Vs Sharpo & JD

 

Match 3 - Brewer & Mikey Blue Vs EC & Genty

 

JD contemplates the course.  Shame Mikey Blue never told him he'd just pissed up that tree

 

Match 2 roll in having done 11 cans each during the round (following a healthy Sangria breakfast).  Top Badgering

 

Big Al receives The Growler for services to the Badgers.  Only growler he'll ever see on tour (unless he takes a gentlemans stroll with Brewer or Smudge)

 

Big Nige attracts the attention of the local Trading Standards office for making false claims

 

JD meets one of The Specials.  At least he said he was special.  Or it might just have been the Special Brew 

 

'Fookin Specials?  He looked nothing like Suggs'

 

More Rabid Badgers

 

Your names not on the list, you can't come in.  Plus you're fat, and you're wearing pyjamas 

 

The Badgers still haven't worked out who attacked Big Al with that purple spray can

 

Arms up who uses Right Guard?  Stoners and Sharpo realise their faux pas and start kicking up like Smudges 2 day underpants

 

Genty takes a quiet moment to contemplate all of those final accounts to be agreed

 

SHAMONE!!!!  Fuck Michael Jackson, THIS IS THE REAL THING!!!!!

 

Stoners decides to hide Big Al's drink.  It's behind yooouuuu.......

 

These pictures need no explanation........

 

Now you see me......

.........now you don't.  Steve 'The Chameleon' Brewer displays his SAS training in subterfuge

 

Day 3 - Basildon Municipal El Paraiso (officially the worlds worst golf course - cheers H)

  

Match 1 - EC & Stoners Vs Brewer

 

Match 2 - H & Big Al Vs Smudge & JD

 

Match 3 - Mikey Blue & Big Nige Vs Rudders & Genty 

 

The signiture 12th hole at Basildon Municipal El Paraiso

 

Apres Golf; Tired Bunney No. 1 (who, by the look on Big Niges face, has just cracked one off).  Must have been all that exertion at Kennys the night before......

 

Tired Bunny No. 2

 

Tired Bunny No. 3.  Time to go home......
