Another thing about Henry Rollins
25 Mar 2006 01:46 pmThe official merchandise was dead cheap: t-shirts (two sided print) were £10 and CDs (Talk is Cheap Vol. 4) were £5. That's stuff I'll buy happily.
Oh, he has a blog, too.

Beautiful Day
25 Mar 2006 01:50 pmI think spring is finally here, the sun is shining, a fresh breeze is wafting through my place and the birds are singing. Lovely.

Planet Earth
25 Mar 2006 08:21 pmFinally I managed to catch an episode. This time, on rivers. Theoretically nothing we haven't seen before but those pictures and shots were just amazing.
I've been a fan of nature/wildlife programs since I was little with Attenborough's 12 parter (was it just called The Earth?) being one of the highlights, when there was nothing that could make me miss an episode on Saturday evenings at 7pm. New filming techniques make pictures possible that have never been seen before and Attenborough is usually the first to use them.
I really like the diary bit at the end which shows how difficult it actually is to get those pictures. How many hours, days, weeks or even months pass before just a few minutes or even just seconds of usable footage.
In recent years, I'd lost interest a bit but Attenborough's programs are always fresh and utterly wonderful.

I cooked a snake today. Well, not really but it looked like one. ;o)
I bought a fantastic boar sausage at Pete's today (a long, coiled up one) and when I put it in the frying pan, it actually moved and uncoiled. That was a bit disturbing.
Anyway, with cheesy mash, steamed cabbage and fried onions and leeks, it made a lovely dinner:

( Bigger )
Apologies for the slightly crap photo, I was in a hurry and didn't find my flashgun in time...
Except for potatoes, onions and carrots, that was that for this week's organic box. Next week's has courgettes and parsnips.
ION, the bastards are stealing an hour from my precious weekend. Summertime change is tonight. :o(
