Just watched Seaworthy, a surf movie by independent film maker, Nathan Oldfield. Beautifully shot, with a chilled out soundtrack and a moving story as the centrepiece for the film. Check out the trailer below!
Thanks Brad for buying this for me for Christmas.
I’ve just (nearly) finished reading this. A book that was given to me by some friends (thanks Mike and Renee) whilst I was hanging out and surfing in San Clemente, USA. The book is all about thoughts/reflections on spirituality. When I first picked it up I was a little bit sceptical, but with an open mind I started to read through it.
Now I’m not going to suddenly run off and join a church or announce my undying love for god. But the book does examine some interesting topics. Anyway, the outcome is that I thought I would start dropping a few pennies each day into Mr. Pig (just small change etc.). The idea being that when he is full I empty him and give whatever is inside to charities/causes I support.
Anyway, I’m not going to get all self-richeous and start preaching, but if anyone reads this and decides it might ebe a nice thing to help people less fortunate than themselves, then that is a good thing.
Pass on the stoke.
In the latest of our mini Novemberfest Rose and I are off to see The Kills this Saturday at The Brixton Academy, reckon it will be a pretty rocking crowd, will report back on Sunday (probably with a headache).
I’m off to see the Black Keys early next year and if the new single is anything to go by, they are gonna rock!
Awesome Pete Murray gig last night down at Bush Hall in London. Really cool, intimate venue with a chilled out crowd and a few cervezas on board. Always a winner with Pete!
A few shots from the garden this morning and one of the window with some condensation on it.
Family karting down at Brentwood go-karting centre. Rory stalls it, Dad gets lapped, I get ram raided and Brad wins heat 2 (The Rob was off sick).
Been a busy bee this weekend and published my second book on Blurb. This time a short 60-pager about our trip to Tallinn back in May 2010.
Dig!
Just published a new book on Blurb: Boa viagem by Ben Ellis & Rosana Maragna, gonna take a few weeks to print and ship, but super stoked about it!
Off to see the Arctic Monkeys at the O2 next Saturday and planning to start the day off with a trip to The Kernel Brewery to stock up on a few (hopefully) quality IPAs. The Kernel Brewery make Pale Ales, India Pale Ales and old school London Porters and Stouts.If the video below is anything to go by, it looks like it will be a promising visit!
