Speeding comedy

Was watching 'Comic Strip Presents...' (British TV comedy from 1980s) yesterday and found that one episode called 'Summer School' was filmed on location at Brunel University, West London. I only know that because I'm currently studying there, and so it was quite nice to know a second 'claim to fame' for the university (the first being the film 'A Clockwork Orange').
The episode was about a group of adults living out pre-historic lives in straw-hamlets, etc etc. For those who know Brunel grounds, it was filmed on the concrete quad area next to the Lecture Centre and Refectory/Student Union building.
And they also tried to catch fish in the stream with spears - that was pretty funny too.

Also yesterday (I couldn't think of anything to post yesterday), my travelling friend of 'Round England', Nav, tells me that we did manage to get a speeding ticket, doing 37mph on a 30mph road. We thought that we had got away with it all but alas no. And it happened on the last day of our travels - sod's law.

Just finished watching a Marx brothers film, 'Duck Soup' - I think it's the first Marx brother film that I've watched completely, and boy it was pretty damn funny. The plot was of a new leader (Groucho Marx) causing problems with another leader of another country and starting a war. But it's the comedy that's the thing that you need to look out for - it's all pretty plain and simple comedy, but it's all good.

And now Nav tells me that he has shaved off his beard and the expected untanned chin was not as bad as we thought it would be... possibly. I've not seen it but I'm sure it's fine... yuk yuk yuk :o)

For the first time since I've been back home from travelling England it was actually sunny, albeit for part of the day. So I sat outside and tried to do a super hard So Doku. Keyword being 'tried' as I thought I nearly completed one of the grids but turned out that I had done something wrong and managed to mess it up. And then I couldn't trace my steps back and thus I gave up. Ah well, good waste of an hour or so in the sun.

Geez, I take forever writing a single post - it's nearly been an hour, I suppose it's what happens when you have the TV on... bad TV, sit!

umm... that'll do for now.
