Sunday views from the north.

Sitting here infront of my computer its easy to write on this. But there are quite a few occasions when I think about something, and I say to myself - I really want to write on my blog about that. But I don't have a pen on me and I can't write it on my phone, so often the thoughts have to remain just that, and stay in my head.

But anyway since I'm here now, I can write about going to see Up, the new Pixar film.

I'm quite a fan of Pixar, but I reckon this was the best one yet.

It was funny, but still made a point, which is not the case with all of them - I thought Ratatouille was good, but not quite as thoughtful as Toy Story or Up.

The animation was, as usual, first class.

And it was just plain funny! Which is always good for a film I reckon. If only the seats had a bit more legroom, then the cinema experience would have been pretty much perfect.

Adios.

Holiday!

I've been on holiday this week.

I came down south and experienced all the joys of warm weather, beaches, and old friends.

Back to work next week, but its not with a dread that I'm going back up to Newcastle. No I like living there, and am really starting to feel at home there!

And that is quite a surprise given that 3 months ago I didn't know anyone, or where I was going to live!

p.s - full-time work holiday is really different to uni holiday! Shorter, but sweeter as a result.
