2xTrouble (DoubleTrouble) is two baldy guys living in Edinburgh with views of the sea and mountains from the windows of our flat. Been together over 10 years and use the same profile name on other social networking sites.

Many of our pics will be of us out and about with our black labrador, Finn. Flickr is part repostitory and part playground for "arty" stuff. Amazing what following the Artist's Way by Julia Cameron kicks off (check it out if you don't know and are even vaguely creatively inclined!). We both love nature shots, abandoned buildings and vehicles and the quirky bits of city life we come across. Living on the coast, many of our pictures are of the sea and life around it too.

We've really enjoyed the encouragement and advice we've received through posting our pictures into some of the many Flickr groups and it's just great to share and maybe show off a bit occasionally.

16 things about us in no particular order:

Mark is English, Ja's a Scot.
Mark speaks several languages fluently.
Jason is dyslexic but has amazing spatial awareness.
Finn, our dog, is meant to be a black labrador but has chocolate running through his coat.
We celebrate our civil partnership later in 2009 on Mark's 50th birthday.
We both bared our bottoms on national television that ended up being shown around the English speaking world back in 1998.
Jason has always wanted to learn to play the saxophone.
We need/want a new camera! Which digital SLR should we get?
Mark is vegetarian and loves cooking. Part of his work is teaching about healthy eating.
Jason travels a lot with work, occasionally abroad but regularly in London and Manchester.
Mark feeds and walks Finn the most but Finn loves Jason more than Mark!
We might be gay but we don't choose the company we keep because of their sexuality.
Jason's alternative name is Imelda Marcos although the numbers of pairs of trainers has been drastically reduced since we moved house. (He works for a major footwear retailer!)
We have a reputation with our friends for being outspoken. We call it plain speaking :-)
A weekend walking out in the hills is as good as a weekend clubbing and partying.
Mark wants an allotment or the use of a vegetable garden.
