That Vodkabird has started a new ‘series’ which I think I’m gonna enjoy. Titled “They pop up everywhere! Who the bloody hell are they?” it will feature those actors you see in a lot of movies but can never remember their names. This is a frequent late night, pub conversation for me, including the rise of this type of actor to more prominent castings, Philip Seymour Hoffman being a prime example.

Of course the whole premise of a ‘series’ could be done to a lack of anything else to say but I’m holding out for some more goodies. No pressure.

UPDATE: A much better post about this* (via Green Fairy)

* i.e. he thought about it for more than the 2 seconds I gave it…

Regular readers will know that on Friday we have cakes at work. This Friday I have a meeting at 10:30 so I decided I would go and get them (we work on a volunteer basis). Now bear in mind that for the last 4 days, we have had glorious sunshine, and it’s been lovely walking around the city with the sun and the breeze from the Clyde wafting round the buildings.

Of course, as I had decided to go and get the cakes it rained.

I suppose it’s karmic retribution for my posting on Wednesday: “Apologies for those in the south of England, I gather it’s raining every so slightly down there… shame… “

(Ohh I’d have linked to the post but the archives are screwed again, and hey, it’s only a quick scroll down the page)

This post was drafted whilst walking along Argyll Street. Does anyone else compose posts in their head when they are not at a keyboard?

Safe journey little.red.boat, may the seas be calmed on your approach and the tail wind be your friend.
