h h h h h h h hoolidayyyyy

I've got a spare few minutes to bash randomly at a keyboard like the monkey from the beginning of 2001, only slightly less elegant. Thinking about it that's how most of my posts are written.
Anyway its now just gone past the midway point on my blighty holiday and its been hectic to say the least. There's been day trips to Birmingham and Nottingham with the Mills clan, revealing both cities have been cleaned up and look...well nice, its especially helpful that in Birmingham we found an art gallery showcasing British artists from the last 30-40 years from the likes of Julian Opie, Gilbert and George, Martin Creed, Richard Hamilton and Mona Hatoum to name a few, the first time I had seen them all together like this but strangely these were the pieces that had inspired me to get into art college in the first place (particularly Mon Hatoum) . Speaking of Art I saw the Picasso Exhibition in Leicesters New Walk museum which is also fantastic and highly recommended.
I've eaten most things I can't get in Japan, roast dinners, Indian meals, vegetation feasts, oh and visited as many pubs as I can.

oh and the suns out. Anyway notion that the suns arrival is timed to my own in England is completely justified, as yes I am to thank for it.
Finally tonight we're having another Indian meal and will watch .... er transformers yes yes yes I like seeing things blown up as much as the next person, well considering that the next person is my brother that probably explains it all.
Right off to buy more toothpaste and presents. More info and photo's will follow if/when i have time.
in the meantime have a great weekend.
