Wonderings, wanderings and waffle
Not much going on at the moment. My trip to Hadrian’s Wall was blown away by the rain and flooding. Just hanging around till I go back to Canada next week, hopefully not to be on the dinner-plate of bears - as we’re doing some hiking and camping in Ontario.
So, October will be when I have to get a job. Oh joy.
Here are some of the creatures I’ve made so far:

It’s nice to see that somebody still cares about grammar. I’m no expert, but I can still cope with “it is / it’s” or “its name is” or “too much” or “they’re over there”.

At long last - the game I’ve been waiting for a year to be released - Spore. According to this article, it’s out at the end of this week. I’ve just placed my order with Play.com - it even runs on Mac OSX, well I hope!

Came back yesterday, after finishing my Seven Wonders trip. The natural wonders (Snowdon and Pistyll Rhaeadr) were great, but the other ones were a little underwhelming. Still, the history behind some of the wonders is pretty interesting.
Looks like Spielberg is set to produce the first of the Tintin films. I’m also sure I read somewhere that Andy Serkis will be playing Captain Haddock, I wonder who will be playing Tintin?
I need to recover my complete Tintin DVD set from Nige.

The Seven Wonders of Wales await me this weekend. I’ve already been to Snowdon and Pistyll Rhaeadr before, but would like to do them all at the same time. I may well be accompanied by an esteemed guest!

Given that Scotland don’t want to form a GB football team for the next Olympics - should Great Britain be dissolved, just to form its constituent countries - Scotland, Wales and England? Each of which would enter the Olympics individually?

The Olympics are over for another four years, damn - what to do with my TV now? Only a two year wait till Vancouver and the Winter Olympics!
It’s a good job I’ve got family and friends who live in London/London area, so hopefully I’ll be able to get to some of the events in 2012.
Theme tune.
We’ve had sashimi pollock and four mackerel (on the barbecue) to eat this weekend, caught by the family. Yum!
