I was just writing something, and I wanted to write, “you won’t be disappointed”. However, I wanted to turn it around, so that it’s a positive. Appointed is not the correct word though. I am hoping some English language genius will read this and explain to me the derivation of the words and disambiguate this…

What if… Jurassic Park was real?
Come on, we’ve all thought it at least once. “What if Jurassic Park was real?” If you’re not convinced by the film, Michael Crichton’s book which inspired it, is much more upfront with the science. Well you need wonder no more. Looks like scientists are working on bringing the wooly mammoth back to life and…
The Purge
Yesterday I went to see the new horror/thriller ‘The Purge’. From the same people who made ‘Insidious’ and ‘Sinister’, I was expecting something chilling and terrifying. I was let down in some ways, but the idea the film is based on fascinated me. This is a two-fold blog, a review and a “what if…” pondering….

I’ve always parroted Russell Brand’s theory on his own life: my life is a series of embarrassing events strung together by telling people about my embarrassing stories. Another thing you need to know before reading any further; I am a serial singleton. Not something I particularly broadcast, not something I’m particularly proud of. I don’t…
My Three Go-To Movies
I don’t know about you, but I have certain films that I go to whatever my mood, whatever I fancy that I will always enjoy. However, when it comes to other people watching the films with me, it’s not so good, because I know pretty much the whole script. My top three go-to movies are:…
Country Music & Me
Amy and I recently went to a country music festival in London, the first the UK has ever seen supposedly, and we thought it’d be cool if we both shared our views/opinions on it here on our blog!
Training Diary: Zumba
So I promised you a training diary of my preparations for the race for life. As promised, here’s the first entry, and but my second foray into “training”.
