Guess how clueless I can be!A lot? That's right!

Anyway. The third series of Skins has ended as of last week, which I didn't realise until I tried searching for episode 11. Now, I can take that as an indicator of my general cluelessness or as an indicator for my general thoughts about the show.( Read more... )

So all in all, doesn't compare to 'Being Human', but was fun all the same. And yes, jeebus_uc I am capable of having good taste in TV shows, why?

The Grande Day Out was indeed grand. Had chips and the most amazing cappucino ever at the Haagen Dazs place in Leceister square. Mike was very cool and we even bumped into another Nigerian guy (doing charity stuff for NSPCC) and chatted in the worst Igblish this side of the Atlantic. Took him to the National Gallery (he has never been! A horrific thought, no? He just laughed when I told him this, clearly not understanding how devastating that was for a neek like myself) and around Covent Garden area. He seemed intrigued by steampunk, but I thought it would be stupid to ruin a great friendship so soon. Still, I think he'd be awesome as a 'Steam-Eze' - the Igbo science-pirate with a steampunk twist...

For those of you around Central London, you have to check out the free exhibition on Feliks Topolski, just after the Southbank centre square. 'Tis quite amazing.

This is why I hate going on the tube, lol: Too many distractions!

Hm.

Just finished watching Hayao Miyazaki's 'Howl's Moving Castle' and as ever, it's the soundtrack that gets me first (beautiful as ever...). However, I can't say it's the best, or even near that, of his work. In fact, I suspect that if he really wanted to do an adaption of a DWJ novel, he should have chosen a Chrestomanci book. For one thing, they have tighter, more cinematic plots and for another... dressing gowns. Need I say more?
