saturday morning and the sun shines with giant warm rays. spring rules. I am off to town in a minute, to have a look in camera shops for kit for my new digital camera which I got from amazon last week. I decided to get a Canon Ixus 55 because although I would like to have a digital slr, I think this camera is perfect for travelling and general horsing about without spending incredible money, it is very compact and small, fits in a trouser pocket, takes cracking photos, and it is the BOMB!!!
Yeah so it was a fantastic day out there today. I went into town after juggling in the garden sunshine for an hour (mostly 2club) and bought kit for my digital camera (case and extra battery) and then went to see the Amazing "Transamerica" at the cinema. What a great film, the best I've seen in ages. and the girl who plays the pre-op transexual deserves an oscar. This evo after cooking toad in the hole i watched Akira. Akira is a jap manga sublime masterpiece. So complex so cool so different. Always keeping one on the ball of one's thoughts, never failing to surprise and amaze. I'm reading John Peel's part-autobiographical/part-biography "Margrave of the Marshes" (he died half way through it, his wife Shiela and children completed it), and enjoying it immensely. Very funny and highly saturated with good tales of, well, his life.
The weeks are flying past, I am pretty busy every day but I don't seem to actually get much done. I go to the cinema, play sport, watch football, juggle and read books. This I like. What have I got to show for this outpouring of energy? Firm ripplingly muscled arms, a bigger brain and a greater number of films that I have watched. I have watched lots and lots of films since January. 65 including DVDs in 3 months. Whoah, that's quite a few!!!
