it's been a while
Nothing else matters....
I've not really thought about it, but recent doings make sense when you consider the recent events.....its been a time for spending time with some of great and lovely people I know dotted around....most of it was already planned, but I managed to fit some extra visits in too
So, its been a busy few weeks and internet is not a constant due to the house move (which isn't entirely a bad thing)
Last week there was a fitting send off for Ben, a celebration of his life I think. Friends old and new with a feeling of appreciation for each minute together. A lesson for every
Mostly due to the Tse Qigong Centre, I'm spending nearly every weekend in London atm, which is simply city madness for a country bumpkin like me ;)
Tse Demo was sooo good, if you didn't go then you missed out, simple as, next one probably won't be for another 5 years, was an honour to be part of it.....hopefully I'll be asked again, maybe even for some hard qigong next time which would be rather exciting!
Got to join Volt BMX and friends for the Anthem II Premier.....trekked across on London on buses and trains on a foggy Sunday night but it was well worth it. Thanks to John and co for putting it on....just waiting for my copy now....go buy it, (pre-order here, expected any day now) it won't disappoint!
Got to see my bestest buddy and his family on the south coast last weekend, which was, as always THE BEST x
More Tse Centre stuff last Sunday too, and two meals of some of the finest Chinese food available in London and Birmingham with all many Tse Centre friends this coming weekend....going to be an awesome mega feast x2 :)
Oh yeah, I need to wish a good gent I know a long and happy retirement, he'll never read this but that doesn't matter, he's a good accountant, colleague and friend, have fun Tony, love to you and your family x
Have fun every day

shit can go wrong at any time
so don't take anything for granted....
A good man has left us today, he's moved on way before his time should have been up
He was a good fella on all accounts, not a bad word to say about anyone, a good heart and a happy chilled guy.
My love goes out to you and your family and friends
Miss ya man = RIP Ben x x

Ickestep....
Oh man - great comment....Ickestep - the dub will set you free!!
I don't rave on much about about dubstep - but this I like, plus the LA DJ MVMNT who made the track, his real name is Chris Morris....
We are Energy by MVMNT

oh those pesky bankers!!
and I'm not normally into poetry that much but I do like this....
I wonder - do the French have the answer for 7th December?
keeping it in the family
Of late I generally keep a distance from the mainstream news because they just talk so much sh1t, so I'm unsure how I feel about the Daily Mail, but sometimes they do make me smile.
I don't mind admitting I was mostly oblivious to the upcoming Royal wedding, but when J asked me how excited I was about it, the first thing that came to mind was; I wonder what bloodline she comes from, and sure enough someone at the Daily Mail had already investigated

Winter Trails
Got a ride at the trails in ALV Woods on Tuesday....it's a first to ride this late in the year for me so thanks to the few who helped bail and sweep them out and a big thanks to the serious amounts of wind.
If we can get the drainage dug out properly, and get more tarps to cover the whole of the lines maybe more records can be set for winter riding!
All recent BMX related posts are over on ALV and after seeing the web videos of Autumn PA trails it might just mean a visit is on the cards next October :)

Toronto treats
More good things going on here....
Just been for a mega Dim Sum experience in the original China town in east Toronto. They just come round with endless trolly's of traditional food until you can't take anymore - so cheap too - amazing
Proper Chinese bakery next door that was also very cheap, plus the craziest supermarket with everything you can imagine including pick your own live eels or crabs - nice!
When I was here last year I found Hogtown - a skate / snowboard / bmx shop which is pretty friendly and packed out with skate stuff and clothes. Different guys in there to last year but still a good place
Yesterday I found a more bmx orientated shop - Core, which is on Queen St East, have to say - cool as fcuk. Real friendly guys in there, rider owned, proper relaxed, they put the United DVD on so I chilled in there a good while and they even gave me a shop T-shirt - how nice is that!! :) So I guess I'll be making my way past Toronto with my bike to have a ride with these guys next year....although it seems no trails around as parks and street is the thing here....all good though :)
Went to the ROM - Museum the other day too - real good in general and the China Terracotta Army exhibition was amazing.
Well part of me doesn't want to come back, I could def see more stuff here and maybe should have got out of the city to the lakes but been happy chilling about really....
....on the other hand though I have missed alv woods so will be ace to get back up there. Want to ride my bike too....maybe the trails season is coming to an end (or already has) but a roll round the streets will be nice :)

mad house of lords
thanks to J for pointing this out via boingboing - one of the funniest things I've read / seen for a while
You can read all house of lords dialogue on Lords Hansard text (this is section 1538 on 1 Nov)
or
watch the original recording on the bbc 'democracy' live at circa 2hr 30 mins....
so why do we need bank debt and government cuts etc when there is free money out there....or is he just a mad ol' fool....amazing!!

Missed a ferry....
....back from the islands by five minutes yesterday, but of course it turned out for the best (*awesome* some might say) as I got some views like nothing else as the sun started to go down
half way through
yup I'm just over half way through my trip to Toronto and around now....every day is a good one and 5 more full days to come
Had my walking shoes on yesterday, stomping around the islands which I almost had to myself - sweet! It's a bit of a trek from where I'm staying (walk, street car, walk then ferry) but I'm tempted to go back and have a day doing qigong and training there 'cause its so nice and peaceful
View of the islands from the CN Tower
More photos to come but uploading them is a pain in the arse!
