Stand still...

Wow...so...over a year later and I remember that I've an online blog. Has my life really been that empty that I had nothing to blog about? No, don't answer that!

Well, I'm still alive. That's something.

Couple of new fantastic albums out this year from Nightwish, Tarja, Slipknot and Metallica...

I saw Nightwish live in concert...they were utterly superb.

2008 trips included Cracow (Poland), Malta, and Madrid (Spain). All very beautiful. Slovenia last year was stunning. Venice (Italy) was beautiful ...but...meh....

Movies: Plenty to keep me entertained. Iron Man, The Dark Knight, Kung Fu Panda, Wanted, The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas, Taken - all brilliant in their own way. Oh and the back catalogue of Tak Sakaguchi - Versus, Shinobi, Death Trance etc - all great fun. It's a pity a lot of foreign language movies aren't released over here. I'm still waiting for Korean movie Blood Rain to be released on R2 dvd but no such luck - that movie was excellant.

I got my learner's permit (yay) so now I can learn how to drive.

My braces have been on for 22 whole months...I think the novelty has worn off. Plus, my teeth look pretty straight so hopefully I'll be getting them off soon.

Life...is on-going. I'll let you know how that pans out!
