  1. It was too overcast in our area to see anything - DAMN!

    Did you see it?

    or anyone else?

    Unfortunately I had the same problem.

    Too cloudy. :(

    I only saw it in glimpses as the clouds moved by here and there.

  2. Hi thanks, azad, I've looked into it and they seem to have shows pretty much all over the world - North America, Europe, Middle East, far East... except your neck of the woods. Strange and unfortunate. There are many shows being presented, though the one that I saw was "Kurios." If you happen to be traveling, check out this list. Maybe there will be something near you - http://www.cirquedusoleil.com/en/shows.aspx :)

    Hey thats cool of you to pass on the link. I will check it out and although no plans for travel atm, you never know.

    Much appreciated Patrycja. :)

    I'm happy today because I woke up feeling slightly sore in the legs from a long fast walk in the soft sand the day before.

    The hard work is paying off. :)

  4. Just got back from a thrift store and found a Takamine electric guitar that looked/played really well, was only 25 bucks. Went straight home and jammed with my brother with it. Sounded great!

    Nice one JLee93, I wish I had more luck because I just flushed $140 down the drain on a cheap strat copy that wont stay in tune.

    We live and we learn. :)

    I saw on flea bay this tee shirt at £1000. Although mine has a slight hole on the front it's still in excellent shape

    Is that 10 pound or 1,000 pound? Anyway, it's a nice shirt. :)

  5. Great shot

    Thanks Charles

    Was walking around and it dawned me that I should take this picture, it shows off some of the English style heritage in the city

    This is one of my favourites that you have posted.

    It's enticing. Makes me wanna go sit in for a pint. :)

  6. Yeah, she's deffinately a talented artist. More so than I gave her credit for in the past.

    Iv'e seen that 'Cheek to Cheek' album with Tony Bennett at the local music stores on all the front eye catching shelves.

    It must be selling well.

  7. he has something that has been sold to the BBC and ABC ..... but it';s not Dr Who. I have seen a bit of it, it's good! should be screening here next year.

    That's great stz. Let me know when it's about to screen as I don't really watch tv or check guides etc. :)

    Speaking of doing what you love, I saw - experienced the wonderment, more like - Cirque du Soleil's latest offering tonight, "Kurios - Cabinet of Curiosities." It's on in Toronto until October 26th. If you're in the area, or if it's coming to your area, RUN don't walk to see it. Incredible artistry and skill, precision, beauty, all wrapped up in imaginary heights that will leave you wiping your eyes and wanting it to never end. An amazing performance! Check it out: http://www.cirquedusoleil.com/en/shows/kurios/tickets/toronto.aspx?cid=ps:kur_ca-on-07_2014:kurios_toronto_2014:google:0:tks:adv&adsrc=google&adcnt=0&keyword=%k&gclid=CLipqf-bjcECFQqQaQodvGIAqg

    From your passionate explanation of the show Patrycja, I reckon I would go and see it if it heads our way.

    Thanks for sharing. :)

  8. Hi azad,

    I basically just chilled -- read and watched T.V.

    I hope you're having a good one too.

    Hi there Pagefan55,

    It's great just being able to chill on day's off. :)

    My day has been good, and thanks for asking.

    Just bought some new jeans and a tee shirt and chilled myself. :)

  9. Yes it was! he has his dream job now, which we never thought would happen - so pleased for him

    This is a teaser of something he worked on earlier this year.

    The BBC found some audio to an old 60's series of Dr Who, but it did not have any vision. So the company he works for had to make up some new animations to go with the audio ....

    Impressive STZ. :)

    It's great that he's got his dream job.

    So is he and his team going to do more Dr Who things for the BBC?

  10. went to see where my older son works, an animation studio ..... very cool :)

    That would have been interesting STZ. :)

    Reconnecting with family.

    Finally seeing photos of my mom and dad's wedding.

    attachicon.gifIMG_20140925_000403.jpg

    Actually, on this trip my mom has dug up loads of photos I have never seen. After my mom and dad divorced in 1968, there was a 40 year gap where I didn't see my mom from 1969 to 2009. So I am only just now discovering my mom's side of the family.

    My grandfather on my mother's side that I never knew. This was taken just before he enlisted for World War I.

    My mom and her sister.

    Great photo's Strider and it's so nice that you and your mum have caught up and are spending time together. :D
