I cannot remember the last time I stepped into a cinema. I know it must have been years ago. It could have been some time before I got married. It took all the draw of Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince to bring my physical presence into Lido 2 last night, with Warden. Of [...]

My Warden sent me a link from YouTube which she found pretty amusing. I found it quite entertaining really, so here it is.

I think there is a collector in all of us, as long as there is a passion for something, we collect. I used to collect stamps as a kid. Photographers buy tons of glass and store them in the dry box, for that special occasion when they are needed. A friend of mine collects action [...]

I think it must have been either the excitement or the stress factor that caused me to stay awake at 3am on a Saturday morning, tossing and turning in bed. After some time, I decided to give up and do some web surfing. I checked out a couple of web sites and blogs that explained [...]
