You may have noticed that I’ve barely updated the blog in ages. There are many reasons for this, but let’s not worry too much about that. It’s time to look towards… THE FUTURE.
The all-new, all-singing-and-dancing WORLDOFPABLO.COM is coming very soon. I’ll even be writing far more frequently on the blog itself.
Here’s a fun trailer for my friend Meeta’s movie review website – www.withoutgivingthemovieaway.com (also known as ‘WOGMA’). It’s mainly packed full of reviews of new Hindi movie releases, although it does feature the occasional guest review from yours truly. Anyway, this clip will only be up here for a very short time because of bandwidth issues – so enjoy while it lasts!
UPDATE: Have now removed the clip – the image links to WOGMA instead.
Just an old-but-gold photo from this year’s Holi – the ‘Festival of Colours’.
Hans plays it sneaky
‘Playing Holi’ generally involves getting as many people soaked with water and covered in powder paint as possible. These days you can get herbal colours if you look hard enough, but there’s no guarantee that everyone else isn’t using products designed for industrial use only. It’s then quite an effort to get all the paint off afterwards, but it’s all part of the fun.
Look closely at this picture. I’m copping a bucket from Hans as Ashlu looks on. Ho ho. But wait! What’s that in his back pocket? The sly rascal has a backup supply!
Well, I was reminded of it again yesterday, when big sister Jenny and I went to see Othello at the Globe Theatre in London. One sonnet seemed particularly apt:
The robb’d that smiles steals something from the thief;
He robs himself that spends a bootless grief.
Always good to see the funny side.
In other developments, I now have my visa to return to India – BRINGITON. As you can guess I’m very pleased about this… I’ll be flying back on the 18th, but until then will be flitting around London and Norwich… See you soon?
