Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy... what a fantastic piece of film-making that was.  Brilliant performances, kept me guessing right up until the last 20 mins or so and such amazing production detail.  Why it's only been nominated for 3 Oscars is beyond me.

Craig Ferguson is in Paris at Shakespeare and Company bookshop... his advice to Sylvia Beach Whitman (the owner) about writing a book is to "write one page a day... in a year you'll have 365 pages... that's a book!". Good advice Craig. Mind if I take it?

Spent Australia Day on the sofa watching movies... and it was great.

Catching up with old friends; meeting new friends; drinking gin; stopping off at Maccas on the way home. Two of these things must end soon.

Hmmmm... let's just go for it shall we? Could be fun.

After four years of being in pieces in a ziploc bag; today I finally got around to superglue-ing the lid for Grandma Nell's sugar bowl.  It's not the greatest fix in the world, but then the flatmate who broke it all those years ago did rather a good job of smashing it far and wide and I didn't manage to get quite ALL the pieces... 

So... in volunteering to help a mate with the auditions for the play he's directing (by being a reader), I've managed to score myself a role (if I want it).  Do I want to start acting again?  Hmmmmm... I think maybe I do.
