Leeds



Spent a lovely short weekend in Leeds, another of those cities which has seen rapid regeneration, especially around the waterfront. Had some time at the Royal Armouries Museum, and a little time looking around the shopping areas - the Victorian quarter being the prettiest. Want to go back and have a longer look!

John Mclane Dies Hard again!


Die Hard 4 of course. How could you not love the all-time classic action movies of the 80s and 90s? And Bruce Willis is still doing it. The lines are cheesey, the badies are so funny, the stunts are incredibly unbeleivable and have of course been done before (stuff with an artic lorry in terminator 2, stuff with a jump jet harrier in True Lies), but you know what?! It's fantastic fun!

See Saw


How on earth did I get into these movies? Anyway, they're sick, horrible, quite dastardly, and in actual fact great fun! Like being on a rollercoaster for 90 minutes or so, it never lets up with the gunk and gore and sick stuff. Don't go and see them if you want to make sense of the world and be all peaceful and tranquil!
