Child Bride!!

Here are the lil terrors I just spoke about on-air- Doesn't look like they're too bothered about how much trouble they're in at home!!

Child elopers' Africa plan foiled

The three were trying to travel without passports or money

Two German children - aged five and six - have been stopped by police from eloping to Africa to tie the knot in the sun, reports say.

The budding lovebirds, identified as Mika and Anna-Lena, packed bathing costumes, sunglasses and a lilo and headed for the airport.

They even had the presence of mind to invite along an official witness - Anna-Lena's seven-year-old sister.

The three got as far as Hanover railway station before police intervened.

The young couple were "very much in love" and had decided to get married in Africa "where it is warm", police spokesman Holger Jureczko told the AFP news agency.

Sun-seekers

The idea for the getaway wedding was born as the children's families celebrated New Year's eve together and Mika regaled the two girls with stories of a recent holiday to Italy.

They can still put their plan into action at a later date Holger Jureczko Hanover police spokesman

The following morning, as their parents slept, the intrepid trio walked 1km (0.6 miles) to the local tram station at Langenhagen, where they hopped aboard a tram for Hanover central station.

But the group aroused the suspicion of a guard as they waited for a train to the airport, and police were called in.

Officers persuaded the children they would not get far without tickets and money, but consoled them with a free tour of the police station, where they were shortly picked up by relieved parents.

Although any marriage plans have been put on hold for now, police did not altogether rule out the possibility of an African wedding.

"They can still put their plan into action at a later date," AFP quoted the spokesman as saying.

Life in Technicolor...

... So Coldplay has released Life in Technicolor as an extended vocal version! I have to say Life in Technicolor 1 which featured on the Viva La Vida album hit me the minute I heard the album, besides the fact it's the first track (!?!?) I loved it the minute I heard it, I mean it was a "goosebumps" moment, so when i heard the version with vocals added I did think "Why do that to such a beautiful piece of music, it doesn't need any vocals and then I had the thought "Oh no, everyones gonna know about this track now". Isn't it funny how when ya love a track you get all precious about it, even though I obviously don't own it, I didn't want to share it with everyone! Anywho, here's the original, seen as everyone knows about it now I may aswell post it :D :D

Heineken Ad...

... Cheers Paul!

I Had a Dream...

...No not that kind...




... I dreamt of Brad Pitt last night, it was most bizarre. I was away in what seemed like Amsterdam, i don't even know why it seemed like that but ya know the way you just know these things in your dream! There was no Welcome to Amsterdam signs or red lit windows with half naked women in them but for some reason i just knew it was the Dam, I was having a few drinks with a friend of mine (Petey, it's obviously a sign we need to meet soon & in amsterdam if my dream is to be believed), then Pete got very drunk (:D) so I had to drop him off at Brad Pitt's house, where he was staying. I had to sign a form at this big steel gate to state who I was and who i was bringing there, then the gate opened and Brad was sitting on the steps chatting to his security guard having a few drinks and I thought, oh how sad he can't even come out and join in the fun everyone else was having in the bars because he's so famous! Then I went and met my friend Amy for some more drinks. Very bizarre dream but then I thought about it and this is how my day went yesterday:

Came to work, had a msg on facebook, checked it, saw Pete's picture and had a brief thought about him and how great he is, did some work, had another thought about 2 other friends who are just back from Amsterdam and thought I must check how they got on (forgot to), did my "Telefunkin" link with Stevie on Red Drive at 5.30pm, spoke about Brad Pitt and how he turned down the part of Will in "About a Boy", also had spoken to my brother that day about the movie "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" which stars Brad Pitt,
then watched the movie "About a Boy" where I spotted Brad Pitt on a magazine cover,
spoke to my friend Amy on the phone before going to bed last night... then I had that dream... not so random after all, basically it was a mash up of my day yesterday, how cool!

Movies for 2009

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU ALL! Here are some of the wonderful movies you can look forward to this year, I'll be the first in the cue for "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button". Also I can highly recommend the amazing "Australia" if you're heading to the movies soon. I knew Baz Lurhman wouldn't disappoint, the man is amazing and I've been a huge fan of his movies since Strictly Ballroom- "You really are a gutless wonder", yes I watched it over and over in my youth! But Australia is in a league of it's own. Moulin Rouge was amazing but if possible this surpasses it. And the performances from all of the actors are superb but lil Nullah steals the show completely. I must of cried at least 3 times while watching it, but it was worth every tear! Baz put me in your next movie...pleeeeaaassse, I'll be your best friend!

NOTORIOUS

It's like armageddon...

.... First I find out I could be dead sooner rather than later because I've been eating contaminated pork products (that's it i'm a vegetarian!) and as if my day couldn't get any worse Lenny informs me Be frickin Witched are reforming. Well at least I might not be here to witness the debacle, I only just about survived the fact that boyzone are back ripping off everyone else's songs and trying to pass themselves off as singers (and humans)!

In the wise words of the wicked witch of the west as she was melting (no doubt after too many bits of bacon)... "WHAT A WORLD ,WHAT A WORLD"

...You said it sister!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
