I finally did it.
My two brothers also have 15 inch Macbook Pros.
And everyone at work has Macbook Pros.
If I lived in America, I’d probably have got a ColorWare job done.
But I don’t.
I got mine done by Skinizi.com (cost about 15 pounds, shipped from France)
It’s great.
Shiny with vivid colours.
They didn’t have a template for positioning the apple.
But next time I’ll think about it more.
Your Macbook Pro need never be the same again!
One of my worst kept secrets is I’m not an ambi-colour-underwear-wearer
I only wear blue pants!
So every so often Mummy has to make some for me.
But this time I thought I’d join in, and document the process.
£4 for a pack of white Marks and Spencer’s Briefs
they’d look good
but they’re the wrong colour
luckily Dylon have an answer… “ocean blue”
take a photo of yourself while you pre-wash them
mix the dye with 500ml of warm water
the mixture looks rather pretty
fill a bucket with 12 litres of warm water, and 250g of salt
add the dye, chuck your white pants in
stir them around
or perhaps get your mum to do it
for about 15 minutes
take them out after another half an hour
then rinse them thoroughly (3 or 4 times maybe)
and we’re almost done
a spin in the washing machine
and dreams have been acheived
BOOM SHAK A LAK
6 pairs of blue pants for only £8 + £2.95 of dye!
I am selling my LPL C7700 Colour Enlarger
With Nikkor 50mm f2.8 enlarging lens
It also comes with;
I have only ever used this for black and white photography,
so I cannot attest to the colour meters working… but you should be buying this for the quality of the enlarger. the rest of it I’m kind of just chucking in.
Let me know if you’re interested.

Am I from Hong Kong?
This has to be the best Chinese film I’ve seen for a while.
An intimate portrait of the displaced, Qing Hong takes place in a world where dreams are unlikely to be realised.
Whether it is her father’s wish to leave the mountainous town of nowhere, or Qing Hong’s wish just to be left alone, none of these dreams will ever come true.
Shanghai is nothing more than a dream.
I wonder what will happen to my own dreams of Shanghai.
Will they be tossed out of the window, like a pair of red stilettos?
The President’s Last Bang 그때 그사람들 - 2005 - Im Sang-Soo
Korean films are always heavy on sexual content.
So, naturally, seeing a film called “*** *** bang”, I thought it was going to be about sex.
And there were some girls brought into the “Blue House” to entertain the President and his friends.
But The President’s Last Bang is very much a political film, depicting the 1979 assassination of Park Chung-Hee.
The film is quite clear on its viewpoint. As far as it is concerned President Park was a drunken womaniser, whose sycophantic Head of Security (read “drinking buddy”) didn’t even have a gun on him, at the time of the assassination.
But it’s also quite harsh on the plotters, who seem to have no plan beyond the murder.
The film is ok,
but perhaps what is most interesting is the story that surrounds the film.
Whatever Park Chung-Hee was as a president, he still exudes power.
The film was forced to be edited, and the production company have been ordered to pay $100,000 to the family of President Park.
If I ever made a film about Park Chung-Hee I’d make sure he looked like the victim… maybe I could even get his family to fund it.
I’d call it “nice chap gets assassinated”, and I’d get Keanu Reaves to play him, with Vicki Michelle playing the young korean girl snuggling up to him at the time of his murder.
I’ve been watching Korean films for a while now (I guess I got hooked with Kim Ki Duk’s Samaritan Girl)
but Thirst was my first Korean experience inside a cinema.
Sex, violence, comedy, and tragedy.
A mixture of “frickin’ awesome!” and “what the f**k?”
Being a vampire may be cool,
but having random hallucinations of your murdered husband appearing in bed with you is a bit annoying.
