The first three generations of Ford Escort are now available from Oxford Diecast. The Mark 1 is probably the best of the three, as the Mark 2 somehow doesn't look quite right and the Mark 3 is one of Oxford's earlier models.
To my surprise this morning, I found this creature on top of the Turtle's favorite log. A few more changes and evolution will be complete.
April Fools!

Ondoy, Ondoy, you bad, bad, BAD boy. The past week was an ADVENTURE, one of the events in my life that definitely put things back into perspective; some parts of your life are magnified, and some just sublimate, leaving you to say, “And I was scared of that?” While I’ve always had an irrational desire to live through a zombie disaster movie (raiding stores for floor-length leather (sorry Jenna maybe PVC will do haha) trench coats – watch out John Varvatos!!! – ala Neo and Trinity, prying shotguns, shells and magazines from the hands of half-eaten police officers, and blasting off rotting zombie heads with a satisfying crunch), typhoons are definitely not fun and are more likely to happen in this interesting country of ours. It’s very uplifting to hear about the people who ransacked the supermarkets to be able to donate goods, the neighbors who sheltered thirty people in their house with a second floor, the people who used their talents, brains and connections to help in any way without any recognition-seeking complex.
It’s so easy to say just move the heck out of your house on top of a hill or beside the freakin’ river, but as I found out, to leave your home even when floodwater is pouring into your freezer feels like the height of betrayal. Heck, I don’t even like the stupid sofa print and I just about cried when I peeked downstairs the following morning to see the Couch-From-Hell floating sadly among his fellow underworld furniture friends. The Filipino people is a resilient people, and like roaches we will come back to our ravaged homes and build once again until somebody in government finally understands the concept of urban planning. =) May all families, who have found that some of their own are now with God, find their peace.
While scrubbing a wall at home, I took a picture of these smilies after the swollen paint bubbles had burst; I couldn’t help thinking that definitely, my wall is Filipino: give it all you got, but you’ll never wipe the smile off our faces. =)

To the left, my well-worn X3i. To the right, the brand-spanking new X50v.
While still not looking as sleek as the more expensive HP models I am happy to say Dell is making some progress in making their products look nicer.
Also, it is good to have a girlfriend who works as a buyer for a large IT company; all the presents she gets 'somehow' end up in my pockets *grin*
What do you take pride in?

Arriving back in Great Yarmouth in the late afternoon, I took a walk around the Pleasure Beach Fun Fair. It was about to close so there weren't many people about.
Slightly cropped
Much better large please xx
Not the best of light today for moving subjects but got lucky with this Gelada Baboon which suddenly stood upright and ran along this platform before going back on all fours. At Colchester Zoo
