Spare ribs anyone?

November 14, 2007 – 9:54 am

I’m back. Well sort of. Let’s say I’m Backish. Like Ivana. I’ll still be drifting in and out of the consciousness that is blogland for a couple of more weeks. It’s not right to be messing with the space-time continuum like that but it can’t be helped for the moment.
Now what was I saying? Oh, [...]

Making Movie Magic #6

October 16, 2007 – 6:46 am

Nearly finished folks. This is the last one. Unless there’s a sequel of course.
There were another two of three days in the grounds of the Big House. Perhaps it was ten. Days seemed to melt into one another. Even when we knew we wouldn’t be called for a couple of hours we weren’t allowed leave [...]

Leaving the greyhound stadium late the night before I got my instructions: Tomorrow morning, be at St. Bodecia’s Home for Bewildered Bloggers at 7. Bring two changes - one casual and one you’d wear going on the pull. I explained on-the-pull to me meant stopping a horse winning and if they meant clubbing attire, I [...]

Movie making magic #2

October 9, 2007 – 7:49 am

Day 2 came and I was glued to my bed. Not literally. The lovely Jules hadn’t carried out her threat. I was just plain exhausted from 14 hours of doing bugger all the previous day. And I still had leg cramps from supporting Joe’s Greyhound Feeds. But I made it back to the stadium on [...]
