South Downs Walking
Back on August 28th I went walking with Simon (his first outing as part of the walking crew...), Nicola and Jackie.
We did Hassocks to Lewes, which I'm realising is now becoming one of my favourite South Downs walks. Up onto the ridge and then just lots of walking along the top of the hill. Absolutely fab - and it was a lovely day for it as well.
Lunch was at The Half Moon in Plumpton, which we all decided had the best sticky toffee pudding we've ever had - it was amazing!
It was a lovely day of walking, followed by a couple of drinks with Jackie and Simon back in Clapham - nice way to round the day off!

Two very different films...
Recently I've been to see 'Inception' and 'Toy Story 3'. VERY different films, but both great.
Inception is one of those films that you really need to talk to people about - and its always so exciting when you find someone else that has seen it so you can say "What did you think about...?" And almost without fail they have seen something in it that I've missed and vice versa. Just fantastic.
And Toy Story 3 - what a wonderful trilogy. I really hope they stop there. It finished so well - and I'll definitely be buying that box set when it comes out!

"I"'ve done the letter I...
Another letter done in my musical odyssey through my ipod. Some goodies from this letter I found...
I and Love and You - The Avett Brothers
I See a Darkness - Bonnie 'Prince' Billy
I'll Be Lightning - Liam Finn
I'm Not There - Various artists (soundtrack to the film)
I'm Wide Awake, Its Morning - Bright Eyes
Icky Thump - The White Stripes
If I Had Known - Greg Brown
If You've Never Been - Embrace
Illinoise - Sufjan Stevens
Imidiwan: Companions - Tinariwen
In Between Dreams - Jack Johnson
In Our Bedroom After The War - Stars
In The Reins - Calexico / Iron and Wine
In Your Bright Ray - Grant McLennan
In Your Honour 1 & 2 - Foo Fighters
Infinite Arms - Band of Horses
Inside In / Inside Out - The Kooks
International Velvet - Catatonia
Into the Wild - Eddie Vedder
Intriguer - Crowded House
Invitation Songs - The Cave Singers
Is This It - The Strokes
It's A Shame About Ray - The Lemonheads
IV - Chatham County Line
Great to hear The Lemonheads again - an oldie but a goodie! The Avett Brothers are a newbie to me (thanks to Kevin), and I love them. Really really good. Eddie Vedder - love his voice. Need to find some Pearl Jam again - there isn't any on my ipod! And Chatham County Line - fab. I get a bit scared by my ongoing enjoyment of country/alt country. But I love it :-). Jack Johnson - definitely music for a time and a place. I can't get into him over here, but loved it when I heard it during a NZ summer holiday. The Kooks are a bit of cheesy band, but I still enjoy the light pop of it...
