Reviews, Reflections, Recollections

Just a blog filled with my usual irreverent observations about life and all that.

Name:
Location: Singapore, Singapore

enjoys reading and is perpetually trying to find space for all of the books he owns in his room. He also enjoys films, and in particular, going to the cinema. Although a self-confessed trivia buff, reports that he is an insufferable know-it-all are completely unfounded. He enjoys a nice glass of tipple now and then, be it a pint of beer, a glass of wine or a single malt whisky.

I'm Back, Summary of Events

You can say it any number of ways. The classic one is Arnold Schwartzenegger (soon to lose the governorship of California) in the terminator "I'm Back!" (be sure to do it in Austrian accent). For the more sophisticated, there is the Douglas MacArthur version upon landing once again on the Phillipines in World War II: "I have returned", fulfilling his promise of 3 years previously. But the idea is the same - you can expect more posts from me now, and I do apologise for my absence. Mark Twain's remark at reading about his own death in a newspaper springs to mind, though I am sure that the thought of this blog being dead never once crossed the mind of you stedfast readers: "reports of my death have been greatly exaggerated".

I have been more distracted than busy of late, but here are the main events of note: DT returned to Oxford from Singapore at the beginning of Febuary, we had a Jardine Chinese New Year Dinner (probably the last I will be attending), the inter-college quiz has begun, I am taking part in a Daily Telegraph organized pub quiz with a possible top prize of 8000 quid. I am also ostensibly attempting to study for my degree. Such is life

Hey, good to hear from you again. Filming is supposed to take place in the middle of March, if the BBC finally get their act together and give me the finalized date. My specialist subject is the NBA Basketball Finals 1980 to 2005. I choose it randomly and found it accepted. Should be good fun.
