Thursday before last I finally got my bike back. No fault of theirs – it was probably fixed weeks ago – I just hadn’t been able to get to the bike store during their open hours. Anyway, they’d even managed to find a hanger for the derailer, so that was fixed as well. Cool. :)… Read more
I am working slowly through my New Zealand photos, believe it or not. Only 810 to go, now… sooo many.

I grabbed “The Brothers Grimm” & “Fun with Dick & Jane” from Netflix early last week. I’d been trying to see The Brothers Grimm for ages – I’d missed it in the cinemas, despite my best efforts, and just hadn’t seen it around or been suitably inclined to find it. So it was rather disappointing… Read more
