Sunny day Sweepin' the clouds away

How good is the weather!?

Because it's so sunny and pleasant I'm not going to spend time bloggerising.

Instead, here are some interesting things:

A newish blog in town by foody friends of ours, Happy Guts is dedicated to reviewing restaurants in Melbourne and worth a browse.

Mr Lefty and his enormous brain hammers home his point about the Red Cross missile scandal in Lebanon and the response of blancmange-face Downer and his Righty bat-winged monkies.

I'm going to be in a show with these people. I anticipate it will be fun and I insist you all attend.

Now GO OUTSIDE ALL OF YOU!

I'm aware that this isn't particularly ground-breaking, this video has been doing the rounds, but I want to post it here so I can remember it later. If you haven't seen it, it's another one of those 're-cut' movie trailers , this time featuring Harry Potter and the Brokeback music - remarkably effective. And as Virginia says, "the power of a soundtrack". Listen to it through headphones, or on something with good sound and it will make you teary. Very clever.
