A happy-go-lucky English rambler dude goes to New Zealand for a year. Here he interfaces with some of those he left behind and details his nefarious activities. Or summat.

Went to see Amelie at the cinema last night. Joy. Joy Joy. What a wonderful film. I'd defy anyone to leave the cinema not feeling lucky to be alive, and wanting to go and tell everyone they know how much they love them, and give them all a big hug. Er, I didn't actually do this after watching the film, but I certainly wanted to, honest.
For a highly verbose description of the film, by a wannabe film critic and lovely person, click here.
e.g."marvelous sequences that delight the eye", "delicious jaunty humour" and "Jeunet has succeeded with aplomb here".;op
Not sure what this weekend holds for me yet, but the weather's looking up a bit and I need to get in training for the 'Molesworth Muster', an 80km mountain bike race I may be doing next saturday, depending on whether or not Adam from work can persuade someone to give us and some bikes a 4hour lift to Molesworth - fingers crossed. So, i suppose i should get my arse into gear and do something highly energetic. Though not Speed walking, as has been recently taken up by a certain daft bugger back in the UK.
