Went to see this yesterday with my 7 year old son. He'd already seen it twice and was determined that I should watch as well. This film is still whizzing around my head the day afterwards. There are so many jokes flying around I'm still laughing about...
My wife loves ballet, in particular she was blown away by the Mathew Bourne Swan Lake production (with male swans). For her birthday I surprised her with a trip to Sadlers Wells this weekend to see Edward Scissorhands by Bourne and his company New...

Even though I have lived in Sweden for close on 15 years now, I never cease to be amazed by 'the swedish way' of doing things. Not that it's like living in a totalitarian dictatorship or anything, but I do have the feeling sometimes that government...

Osama bin Laden wants the United States to convert to Islam, ditch its constitution, abolish banks, jail homosexuals, bar women from appearing in the press and sign the Kyoto climate change treaty.That last one is a total deal breaker. I got this from...
Just had a go at buying a pink ipod mini armband to go with the ipod Santa is bringing my daughter. Bottom line is that the Apple shop site doesn't work. Kept asking me to enter the card number. Spoke to the help desk. They said I should have created...
