Well it's Monday and instead of heading out to work or indeed heading down to the pool , so far today I have stayed in my room, (local time is 12.28). I really can't be bothered today.
Perhaps it's a British thing but I am bored of the heat, (this room is air conditioned), bored of sunshine and I just don't feel like going very far. I will do soon though as I will need to go out for lunch. It would seem extravagant and lazy especially when the restaurants here have a lovely selection to order room service.
Anyway, I guess I ought to dress and go out and face the world, until next time. Be good and take care!
Before I came away I had plans of doing many things but as I have to buy wifi at 30 minute intervals it could work out very expensive and, I guess I am supposed to relax on holiday. I have relaxed a little here, I've also read quite a few study papers though on cancer and various other things I have been meaning to read for some time so I've not totally avoided the things I promised myself I would do.
One thing which I have found to be a real blessing and a total saviour of my sanity is FaceTime. I am loving it. It has made such a difference being able to chat face to face with Jonathan every night. He's very busy at the moment with various films he's making, right now he is trying to promote a film he did for a local council. Oldham have released a new 'App' which helps kids find what's on in their area over the summer holidays, If you get chance to hit like on the following link, http://t.co/zHyoPiq it's appreciated (you may need to copy and paste into a new window).
He does a lot of different films for websites, he had done over 40 films in the first quarter of this year. When I have Internet etc I will share more of his stuff with you but his website is www.bellyflop.tv and there's a showreel there too plus a few other films he's done. The variety is huge. Like I said though I will write more about that when I have Internet and can give you links, unless of course he comments below with some links... Hmm

#1) I can totally empathize, Mark, with your dislike for the heat-and-the-BUGS (mosquitoes)!!............ i.e., also having these *wretched* menopausal hot flashes o' mine, (haha!!) certainly doesn't help me, in this MUGGY Pennsylvania heat that we've already been having (so EARLY) this year!!
ReplyDelete#2) Jonathan's new 'App' which helps kids find what's on in their area over the Summer holidays is just (in my humble opinion) absolutely *w.o.n.d.e.r.f.u.l.*!! I particularly like not only the *neat* "falling stars graphics"; but also (at 1:06) where the little blonde girl~~(aspiring actress that she is!!)~~says, "I love coming from Oldham, because we're all unique here!!" I understand, of course, that probably was in the little girl's script, but her voice very-convincingly "means" the words!! (Not to mention the all-inclusive Message Of Diversity And Acceptance that seems to underlie the script, too!!)
#3) Excerpted from your post of Sunday, 27 May 2012:
"Love deeply and forgive quickly,
take chances, give everything,
and have no regrets."
'Just lovely, Mark; (and precisely what I'm working on, too, i.e., about having *no* regrets in Life)!!
