Transformers, The Movie

Transformers is brilliant. Just watching the bots are eye candy enough.

I mean check that out!

Jazz Summer Series @ Canary Wharf

Still not over the awesome time we had at the North Sea Jazz Fest, so we headed to the Jazz Summer Series in Canary Wharf.

Outdoor Jazz + Wet grass = Wet bum.

The grass did look green in Canary Wharf that evening. The grass is always greener isn't it. Yeh, I think so.

North Sea Jazz Festival, Rotterdam

Went to the North Sea Jazz Festival in Rotterdam, the biggest jazz festival in the world.

Jazz and me were meant to get along.

Marlena Shaw (of Nathan Haines Squire for Hire), Indie Arie, Al Green, and the Rooftop Terrace. We parked there for hours and hours and could probably stay there forever.

Just what I imagined house music in Europe to be, the Rooftop Terrace was all of that and more. Like Pink Panther's Penthouse Party, in the flesh.

Avenue Q, West End

My mate was visiting from NZ, and we went to watch Avenue Q the other night on the West End. I watched it on Broadway last year and was going ack ack ack... It is blimmin awesome. I had listened to the CD about 100,000 times in NZ and seeing it live is fan-titty-tastic. Seeing it again makes you want to hug everybody.

Afterward we waited outside stage door and got the cast to sign our programme and took pictures with them.

"Everything in life is only for now". If you haven't seen it, do. It will make you warm and fuzzy inside. Just like a glass (not mug) of a nice, strong flat white.

Bull Run in Pamplona, Spain

Every year on 7 July, in Pamplona, Spain, a horde of people wear white and red scarves and go absolutely nuts.

So my mate from school came to London and we headed there by COACH (20 hours each way). We got to know each other pretty well on that ride.

Once we got there it was pretty much hell broke loose. 'Cept a nicer hell, where everyone is happy, friendly, and love turning your white tshirt pink with sangria. Eew.

My mate got pashed on the lips by a Spaniard and spanked on the a**. I'm sure he enjoyed it, my mate.
