Morning Musings

Listening to some new Deftones this morning that I’ve had not too long. Saturday Night Wrist – great title, hehehe. Sounds really good. It’ll be hard to top White Pony for me though which is the best album they’ve ever done IMHO. I love albums like White Pony that have a definite mood about them. You know the one’s I mean, where you listen to it and you would only listen to it in order and the whole thing at once. Pink Floyd have made a carreer out of making albums like that. Iron Maiden’s Brave New World is like that for me too. Also Brothers In Arms by Dire Straits (I don’t care whether you don’t like them, I do!).

Toni and I went to the Spaceport in Birkenhead on Saturday afternoon ‘cos we were bored, so I got my TomTom and headed off. I’d heard some stuff about it and looked at the website a few times and thought it looked quite good. My god how I was wrong! It tried to be one of those hands-on museums, but just turned out to be rather boring, and a lot of the exhibits actually made hardly any sense. I don’t know how kids would get on. Co-incidentally, we found out when we got there that a week earlier a new Doctor Who exhibition had started inside. As a result the queues were large to say the least. In fact, this turned out to be the best thing about the whole afternoon. I’m not into Doctor Who in any way, but the exhibits were really cool and saved the whole trip. I took a few pictures of the exhibits and put them on my Flickr account.

Mmmmm…. Spinach & Ricotta.
