I'm sat here at my desk listening to a playlist I made for a friend a couple months ago with the sun coming through my window, which is fabulous, yet outside it isn't as nice as it first seems, there is a very chilly breeze.
This past week has flown by, I can't believe we're already on the last day of April.
On Saturday I popped into Bath for a trip to the Cinema to see Iron Man 3, which as a Marvel enthusiast, I was very much looking forward to, however I knew that it probably wouldn't be a masterpiece, and I think I was right, but saying that it was a full on, action packed, and a very enjoyable movie. I certainly was not disappointed.
I have linked in the trailer here because it's the best I can do - I'd definitely recommend it if you want an enjoyable evening.
I'm not very good at the whole reviewing thing, so I'm just telling you that I went and enjoyed it, so you probably will too!
Going to Sunday, Daft Punk had their first UK Number 1 with 'Get Lucky' ft. Pharrell Williams, and Daughter have done this beautiful cover of it, for Radio 1, but if you've not heard it then look no further!
I'm really digging the whole of Daughter's debut album 'If You Leave' - released in March of this year - I find it most relaxing and gentle, just an altogether beautiful piece of work.
It certainly gives Palma Violets '14' a run for its money as my favourite album of the year so far, although I'm imagining these may both be trumped by the arrival of Daft Punk's new album next month.
In this past week I've also gone for three cycle rides - only 10 miles each - but they have been fabulous. I've been trying to cut my time down from around 45 minutes to less that 40, which I feel like I will be able to do in a few tries.
On yesterdays ride I cut over 2 minutes off my personal best (down to around 42.5 minutes) so I'm confident of success. I'm also looking to do some longer rides when I get a chance - probably somewhere between 20 and 30 miles. I look forward to these days.
I'm running out of time for today, so I'll sign off now.
Well, Easter has come, and gone, so now on to May. Lets hope that there will be lots more sun and beautiful weather throughout May. Although I bet it won't be, just to be depressive.
I have tried to get on with my vinyl challenge but it is not that easy to find time, just to listen to records. I shall plod, like a parade of elephants crossing a desert, persistence.
I have upon my desk, a Lindt Gold Bunny that my most delightful, and wonderful girlfriend gave me, I am very much looking forward to munching it down in a couple of gobbles!
We went for a walk in the countryside yesterday, (if yesterday was Monday), and I took some photographs, here are a few of them, plus also some others from the weekend.
The first three photographs I took yesterday, and the other two on Saturday, and Sunday.
The one of the wall is in Bath on Kingsmead North, and the flower is from our garden.
Time for football, so peace out people of the universe. x
