<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">For this project I was in charge of the onscreen look. I collaborated with the two directors and came up with design sketches for them to choose. From there I created a model of the set so the directors and other HOD's could get a more accurate feel of size, colour and proportion. Of course, adjustments were made from these meetings. Once we had a working model I began construction in at Avalon studios. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Key features of the set include a working red front-door, life-size exterior tree, 360 degree set for reverse shots looking into the world of the 'studio', and puppet axolotl tank, as well as full costuming for all cast. NB. the script describes the show characters as pieces of foam, but I wanted to have them played by actors for a more surreal and visual approach.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">We also filmed a scene where a child is watching the programme on TV. I brought in objects such as the colourful musical instruments and costume to integrate the two environments.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">As well as designing, I was responsible for 4 assistants, budget, spending and petty cash, liaising with the manager at Avalon, over-seeing 2 additional assistants during construction, on-set dressing, and being on hand during the shoot for retakes and ongoing troubleshooting.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Ok so here's the thing. I'm a closet Harry Potter fan. Like, low key big time. I couldn't live so close to the studios without going to check it out myself! IT was MAGICAL (pun intended). For those of you who like HP these photos might be interesting, and for those of you who don't, well, this won't be very exciting at all.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">The Warner bro. studio tour is a tour of the sets and props, at the original filming location in Watford, North West London. It takes about 3 hours to look around the whole set, starting with interiors and ending with Privet Drive and other larger pieces. The studios are still at the same place they were when the filming was happening, so theres a unique feeling to the place that you don't get with other 'theme parks'. This is the real deal. Also, I went at Halloween so the lighting and pumpkins were rife. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">This year saw the 29th Oamaru Victorian Heritage Celebrations; a week of heritage themed festivities culminating with the Fete on Sunday, brought to life in the streets of Oamaru. This year the theme was 'crime and punishment'.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"></span></div>
<a name='more'></a><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">One of the things Oamaru is famous for are the Whitestone buildings, made from locally-sourced limestone or appropriately named 'Oamaru stone'. As lumber and other building materials were scarce, Oamaru was hand-mined from the very countryside it was built on. </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">These beautiful buildings, designed by architects Forrester and Lemon, helped transform the desolate plains of the East Otago coastline into a bustling town that in its hay-day, attracted whalers, sealers, gold miners, craftsmen, prostitutes and publicans, and was bigger than Los Angeles was at the time. Although Captain James Cook said in his journals '[the] whole face of the Country appears</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"> barren, nor did we see any signs of inhabitants', Maori did live in the area, but as there were less trees, running water and bushland, communities tended to pass through Oamaru to the Waitaki river mouth, down the coast to Kakanui and Moeraki, or up the valley.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">To me, rather than celebrating conservatism and a Victorian class system (as many locals perhaps believe to be the case), Oamaru's Heritage Celebrations are about having fun and celebrating the hard-working pioneers who arrived on these shores, and created such a beautiful stone town. I guess a sort of Kiwi thanksgiving. It is also a celebration of aesthetics and diversity, a social anthropological look into how different cultures have grown and changed throughout history. I would love to see some more diversity! Imagine a multi-cultural Heritage Parade, with people from around the world demonstrating what their traditional dress was like in the Victorian era. Of course, industrialised colonial Britain was a very destructive and controlling power (personified in the rubber cogs and plastic ray-guns of the steampunkers?) and I understand why some may question why we are celebrating this specific era. Growing up I simply assumed that it was to match the Oamaru architecture and recreate a filmset-like experience. Again, even this has not been achieved as well as it could have. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Ah well, perhaps in another 100 years?! </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Enough of my grumbling, here are some Fete day photos.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">The Bier and Hoppefeesten at Poperinge, Belgium, was one of the best little beer festivals I've been to. All from bottles, the beer served here was full of big Belgian flavours, high percentage and fast flowing. But here's the difference between Flemish and Kiwi drinkers: this festival was FUN. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">There was delicious food (which people seemed to actually be eating), fantastic music (the crazy dudes in the Radio Fresnel van), and no undercurrent of violent alcoholic unease. This was a family friendly festival, held in one of the town spares but, again, the kids didn't seem to add a strange dynamic either. In fact, all the people working behind the bar were scouts and girl guides! </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Being Belgium, there was a diverse and unique range of Belgium beers, which I enjoyed trying.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Another difference from New Zealand or English festivals: people were dancing! In broad daylight! Without being totally wrecked! I have found my people!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">The internationally renowned festival is in its 22nd year, and is the very deserving winner of the title 'Belgium's cosiest beer festival'. With 25 brewers, over 100 beers and <i>free entry</i>, this two day festival is a must on any beer geek's bucket list.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">The Rivers sort of divide Ghent into two separate cities; on the one side there are the churches and more touristy centre, and the other is the arts and restaurants district. After we were amazed by the churches we decided to cross one of the many bridges and look for our dinner away from the crowds.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">After viewing the churches (the interior and crypt of the larger church with the mighty bell tower were incredibly ornate and wonderful), we went to a bar that is owned by a man who I can only describe as a hoarder. We had to go outside to find a seat and have enough light to see our pints by. He was a character, but seemed like a nice man full of interesting stories, which he told in broken English to us and the American couple who were sitting with us. Surprisingly, his bathroom was cleaner than most! </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">The grown men in bonnets and santa suits are revellers, from a town called Binche in a part of Belgium called Wallonia. It is said that we get the English word 'binge' from these fellows, who are known for their excessive celebration of beer and jolly good times. After the Trollekelder, and feeling a little tipsy from the strong beer, we wandered down cobbled back alleys to a restaurant that looked like it was straight out of a 1920's movie that was made in the 1970's. It was called Amadeus and it was known for its all you can eat ribs and delicious local food. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I bought my ticket to Nick Cave as soon as they were released, with no thought towards who I would go with, or if I'd even be free that day! Even though I got on to it straight away, I still missed out on standing tickets, and settled for a seat on the highest level, which was sort of like sitting and watching other people enjoy a different concert. </span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Saying that, I'm so glad I went. Even with an ageing voice and massive crowd to reach, Nick and the Bad Seeds were on brilliant form. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"></span><br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">They performed all the tracks from the latest album Skeleton Tree, adding to these with other classics like Stagger Lee, Red Right Hand and The Ship Song. One of the best parts was when the audience was invited onstage for the encore, and Nick was able to move through the crowd and sing to the seated audience further back. Warren was fantastic as usual, performing a beautifully dreamy violin solo, piano parts and generally stomping about the place.</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I didn't bring my long distance lens, but I got a few shots of the arena.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Enjoy!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">As you may know if you follow me on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/gamelkateintheworld/" target="_blank">instagram</a>, I recently returned to Italy for a few days. Here are some of the best shots I managed to squeeze in between swimming, eating and window shopping. The main places featured here are <a href="http://gamelkateintheworld.blogspot.co.uk/2016/10/waking-up-in-paradise_18.html" target="_blank">Nervi</a> (a suburb of Genoa), Camogli, which is a beautiful little town that you might recognise from my previous <a href="http://gamelkateintheworld.blogspot.co.uk/2016/11/messing-about-in-boats.html" target="_blank">Italy posts</a>, and just a couple from the <a href="http://gamelkateintheworld.blogspot.co.uk/2016/10/downtown-genova.html" target="_blank">historic centre of Genoa</a>. It was such a beautiful holiday away from the grime of London.</span></div>

<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I am frequently asked the question “what’s you’re
favourite movie?” and most of the time I find it hard to answer, for the perhaps
cliché reason that I like so many different styles of film. However this film
in particular continues to pop up in my mind because it made such an impact on
me personally. <i>The Necessary Death of Charlie Countryman</i> gave me a feeling of
elation as well as fuelling my wanderlust and interest in travelling, at a time
when I had just broken up with my first long-term boyfriend and had moved back
in with my parents. I watched this film alone on the sofa with a bottle of wine
one night in 2014 and was totally captivated throughout.</span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Without giving too much away, the story starts with Charlie, an American teenager (Shia LaBeouf) dealing with the loss of his mother. He
decides to go on a trip to Europe after a beautiful scene where she comes to him
in a vision. Although we know nothing about Charlie’s characters, he appears to
be all good intentions and innocent inexperience. Arriving in the beautifully
dilapidated and gritty streets of Bucharest, he is instantly
plunged into the complexities of a foreign culture. No plans and not much money
see him staying in a hostel, where he befriends the increasingly manic pill-popping Karl (Rupert Grint). When he meets Gabi </span></span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">(Evan Rachael Wood) and</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"> falls instantly and whole-heartedly in love, things start to get dangerous as
her violent ex Nigel (Mads Mikkelsen) arrives on the scene.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Although this might sound like the predictable plot
of some car-chase teen drama, Director Matt Drake works the fabric of the city
into the story and presents an emotional, raw, and surprisingly funny narrative.
There are some beautiful shots of everyday life in Bucharest, as well as music
halls and private homes that make you feel at once like a tourist in the city
and a child peeking from behind a curtain. My interest in Romania and other
Eastern European countries was impassioned from seeing this movie, and I think
this film and others like it have done a lot in not only promoting these places
to the world, but for bringing the everyday people who live there into a more
contemporary and relatable ‘global’ light. It is a pity that a Romanian was not cast to play Gabi, nevertheless Wood delivers a powerful performance which nicely balances LeBeouf.</span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">There are some unbelievable fantasy elements, where a
suspended belief in reality is required. However as they
are the workings of Charlie's brain, rather than his environment, these enrich the storyline rather than detract from it. Shia always comes with a strong flavour, and this film is no exception. LaBeouf fans will love <i>Charlie Countryman</i> - he is in almost every single frame - but don't dismiss this one even if you're not totally sold on him. Although he plays the typical American abroad (acting with irritating and reckless abandon) he paints a picture of a boy dealing with loss, and it's hard not to feel empathetic. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">The overarching theme for me (now sobbing on the
couch) was that what you put into your life is ultimately what you will get out
of it. You are the only one propelling yourself forward, and when there is no
one else there for you, you discover you are able to make decisions for
yourself. However we might try to rationalise mistake or failure by blaming
others, all the choices we make open new life trajectories to different
versions of ourselves. I wont go as far as saying that everything happens for a
reason, because I don’t think that is true, but in a clumsy way I am trying to
say that life is better when you go out and start living it. Thank you Charlie
for teaching me that lesson at a time when I was prepared to listen. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Brewers Michael and Lee-Ann from Craftwork Brewery in Oamaru (aka my dad and Step-mum) were in town last week at the start of their European Beer Tour. We met up with Yeastie Boys Head Honcho Stu McKinlay, and New Zealand Beer Collective Director Todd Nicholson for a old fashioned pub crawl and chin wag. I mean business meeting. We started at the Harp on Chandos place just off Trafalgar Square, made our way around the city and ended at Craft somewhere in Clerkenwell. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;">While
working at the National Portrait Gallery I became enamoured by Millias'
handsome painting of Louise Jopling. There is something in her expression and
posture which conveys a confidence and stability of the female character
unusual for her time. She was an artist and important figure in artistic, literary and Pre-Raphaelite circles, as well as being friends with Millias himself. She supported her family from her income as an artist and was married twice. One of her most important achievements was her art school for women painters, which she established in 1887. This painting was completed in 1879.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">There were a few pretty crap things in <i>Atomic Blonde</i> that I was totally willing to overlook because I thought it was all so fucking cool. This sexy, punchy and hyper-stylised big screen version of Johnston's graphic novel sees Charlize Theron, an English agent (with a very dodgy English accent), travel to Berlin to meet up with her undercover colleague (James McAvoy) to find out what happened to her ex-boyfriend, while kicking ass and look good doing it. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">What really made this movie for me was the soundtrack. And the clothing. But mainly the soundtrack. All to often I hear the 'soundtrack' to a film and think 'yes, this will be great', only to sit through sweeping orchestral backing music and have the so-called soundtrack playing with the end credits. You could feel that the cast and crew had so much fun making this movie, and were totally behind the bold statement that is <i>Atomic Blonde</i>. The music was almost totally period appropriate; packed with 80's new wave greats such as Sioux and the Banshees, New Order, The Clash, Nina Hargan, and Marilyn Manson... and that was in what felt like the first half an hour. Theron could have cut her arm off and welded on a chainsaw, and I still would have been invested.(If you didn't get my Army of Darkness reference that's ok, it wasn't in cinemas until 1992 anyway.)</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I think I was willing to overlook a lot of the over-the-top violent action sequences and car chases as part of the overall package, for the reason that the original story was a graphic novel. Any less action than what appeared in the book would have done an injustice to Theron's character, and would have made the whole concept of a hard-boiled, well dressed, female undercover detective as boring and cliché. The excellent choreography and one particularly long and uncut fight scene involving a staircase proves this point. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I could draw a rather thin parallel here between <i>Atomic Blonde</i> and <i>Wonder Woman</i>, as both characters are called their first name throughout. Has the name Lorraine become sexy again?? There's also a sequence with a yellow rope that is surely a nod in Diana's direction. And the over-the-knee boots seem to be the new fem uniform this year. I dig it.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Although (and I had the very same discussion after leaving the cinema), I think it is a big mistake to look at <i>Atomic Blonde</i> as another female super hero. Coming to screens in the same year as <i>Wonder Woman</i> has put a 'super' angle on all strong female leads, especially where slow motion fight sequences and killer costumes are involved. But I think the makers of <i>Atomic Blonde,</i> while making it clear that this woman does not belong in the reality we live in, is not a super hero either. We see her face beat up, taking ice baths, smoking cigarettes, having sex. Pretty much everything on the no-no list for superheroes. Apart from Thor, but technically he's a God, not a superhero. But whatever, my point is that <i>Atomic Blonde</i> isn't from any sort of superhero universe. She is a unique and stand alone character, she just knows how to throw a damn good punch.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Production and set design teams did an amazing job at bringing 1980's Europe to life. It is a sad sad fact that 'kids these days' see everything more than 10 years before they were born as old, musty and boring. Myself included, I think of the 70's as cheesy and involving a lot of mustard tones. The use of lighting, costume and props, together with that killer music I mentioned before, brought the 80's back in full force and, I hope, made it seem more interesting and relevant to all you millennial's out there that have no idea what the Berlin Wall even was.</span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">This was my second trip to Edinburgh. Last time a friend and I stayed in a B&B called Panda Vila where our host, a man named Martin, was very welcoming but also tried to convince us that the world was flat, floating in a black liquid and enclosed by two giant domes. When questioned about the existence of satellites and space exploration, he said that was a very good question and settled for putting tinfoil over his wifi router. </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">This time however, I was in town to meet up with my Mum and Step-Dad who were visiting as part of a massive trip involving conferences, eclipses, hiking, island hoping, and a wedding in Canada which I will be joining them for later this month. Yeah I know, they should be the ones with the travel blog! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">We had 4 days to make the most of Edinburgh at Festival time, meaning there was lots to do and lots of people crammed into what is a relatively small City... this also means you're in for quite a few photos - see you at the end!</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I took a train from London Kings Cross to Edinburgh Waverley. It takes around 4 or 5 hours depending on how many stops there are. I prefer the train to the bus (9 hours with no food breaks and a toilet on the coach) because it's smoother, more spacious, big windows and you get a table to eat/work/read at. I have a youth railcard which is really beneficial if you do as much train travel as I do. It also gives you off-peak tube discounts.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Mum booked a sweet little apartment on the royal mile no less! While being right in the middle of town always has the benefit of feeling bourgeois, at festival time it can be loud and crowded. I think she used Airb&b, a site I've had mixed experiences with, but everything was fine. We stayed in the shortest building in this photo. The skinny tall one to the left is actually a house museum that we wanted to visit, but unfortunately they were all booked out.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">We tried two different places for breakfast, both within walking distance from the apartment. One was Hula, a Hawaiian style Juice bar on Grassmarket. The other was a Scottish breakfast spot called Deacon's House Cafe and was right across the street from us. Both were nice but I found out that I cant have acai because it gives me a headache. Good to know.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">The Royal Mile is the oldest and most well-known street in Edinburgh. It runs all the way from Holyrood Palace up the hill to Edinburgh Castle. It is known for it's multi-levelled stone houses and small alleyways which connect other streets at different points up the hill. It is also where the festival promoters set up and busk to advertise shows and events. It's the place to be if you want to see some vibrant characters.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Having worked at the National Portrait Gallery in London, and not getting to visit last time, I was interested to visit the Scottish Portrait Gallery - and I have to say, it was better than the English one! The building itself is beautiful and creative, and the works on display were varied and thought provoking. The entry hall is currently a display space for a experimental contemporary sculptural piece. The traditional sculpture of Poem Robbie Burns stands in the centre of the hall facing the door, while a identical 'shadow' sculpture lies in shattered pieces on the ground. The other busts around the room have been turned towards the walls as if to ignore the broken illusion of Burns's true character. This whole concept was a wonderful introduction to the gallery, as it inspired independent analysis, rather than a curated opinion.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">The Queen's official residence when she comes to Edinburgh, this grand old Palace is really worth a visit. Make sure you accept the free audio guide! I wouldn't usually say that because I find them unhelpful, ugly and uncomfortable, but this one enabled you to walk freely through the house and learn a bit about each room and what it is used for. There was a no photography policy, so I can't show you any pictures, but the bedchamber and outer day chamber of Mary Queen of Scots was amazing and very powerful to be in.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Since moving to London and having access to a wider range of plants I have started visiting palm houses whenever I can in new cities (I'm still so sad I didn't get to see the glasshouse at the Palace in Vienna, I have a feeling that would have been incredible). Plants don't need an explanation if you don't want them to, they are a marvel in themselves for their size, age and beauty. I like to think of a botanical glass house as a cruelty free zoo. We were incredibly lucky to be visiting the Edinburgh Botanic Gardens on the day that their Titan Arum (aka amorphophallus titanum aka big penis plant) was flowering. Named Titan Arum by David Attenborough because he didn't want to keep calling it a giant dick, this massive plant is currently being pollinated with others from different gardens in an attempt to keep them alive. Sorry, that was a very unscientific explanation.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">We went to two official festival events. Both were terrible. Sorry. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">The first was a play called The Rhinoceros which was written in 1959 by a guy called Eugéne, and the other was an opera called Greek, which didn't seem to have any actual listenable music in it. The audience clapped and about 30 people came up on stage to be thanked for the performance, and I still have no idea why.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Last weekend I took a trip to Wales to check out Kallida Festival, running for the first time this year</span><span style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">.</span><br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Held in Baskerville Hall, a fading beauty of a murder-mystery mansion, everything from arriving at the venue along a country road, dappled by overhanging trees and curious horses peering over farm gates, to setting up our tent on the manor lawn under the purposely hung string-lights, was easy, aesthetic and inviting.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">With bands and DJ's from across the UK and beyond, all coming together for the first time in such a lush setting, there was a fresh buzz of expectation in the air - we all knew we had signed up for something unique, and we were excited to see how the grand old hall would be transformed into a music venue.</span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">This was the brain child of many years of collaborative thought from organisers, all culminating on the last weekend of July. Sure, with every first there are valuable lessons to learn and errors to fix, but it seemed that all the small details (like the cute hand-painted signage and the recurring Kallida design, this time on the wristbands in sparkly lettering) were thoughtfully planned. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">The Welsh boarder may well be a questionable location for a music festival involving camping, BBQs and general outdoor activities, but once I saw Baskerville Hall everything made sense. I currently live in London, so I caught the train to Hereford via Birmingham, and then caught the festival's shuttle bus (10 quid for a return ticket). We waited a while for the bus, but it was all good because I got to meet some fellow festival goers! </span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">On arrival we were greeted by a volunteer controlling the flow of traffic at the gate, and directed to the wristband office to exchange our ticket for a purple wristband. Then we were free to either check in at the hall or set up our tents on the lawn outside. Once that was set up (slight drizzle, nothing too awful) the main priority was to unpack our bags = find all the cans of alcohol we had lugged here and drink them!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Kallida opened to the public at midday on Friday and closed on Sunday at noon. There was live music outside on the </span><span style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">main stage (a large tent with adjoining bar outside on the mansion lawn)</span><span style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"> until 10pm and then the djs got things cranking, with music in the palm room and red room.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Highlights included Swing Ting, Kog and the Zongo Brigade (full group not present), Stinkin Slumrok, and organiser Reuben as part of Liquid Steel Sound, just to name a few...</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">They will do doing it all over again next year so make sure you save the date - it'll be a goodin!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I'm not associated with Kallida Festival in any capacity, I just have an interest in photography and wanted to document the weekend here in what has become a sort of visual diary. </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Also the image quality is better than uploading to facebook. </span><span style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Please feel free to share any of these photos, with a credit to me as photographer.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I went on a lil day trip last week to Dover to see what all the fuss was about. The cliffs were pretty impressive, although the town itself didn't seem anything out of the ordinary. In fact, the town seemed to have a strange dynamic of Nationalistic Britishness. Being so close to France that my cellphone stopped working, locals here will go out of their way to let you know you're in England. For me this moment occurred when a pub owner came out onto the street and asked me how many photos I had taken of his building. I said just the one, and he said ok, that will be 10p. He was joking of course, but I got the feeling that tourists weren't his favourite customers. And perhaps fair enough, as the cliff paths were full of large groups of French and German school kids all trying to stand as close to the edge as possible without their teachers having full blown heart attacks. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">The roman house was an interesting stop; it reminded me of the sort of small-town-hand-drawn-then-photocopied-onto-faded-yellow-paper signage which seems to be common in small volunteer-run museums back home in New Zealand. Apart from the actual roman house, which was very much real, the ugly 1970's concrete block building felt comical in a homely and welcoming way. Do check it out if you're in Dover.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"> I usually like to find a nice-looking pub and have some lunch and a pint when I'm exploring a new town, but although the main street looked old, English and quaint, there didn't seem to be anything more than multiple Weatherspoons around. Don't crucify me, I appreciate a well-priced spoons when the occasion calls for it (a cheap and boozy night that has faded to a blurry memory by morning, for example), but I don't think it makes me a snob to choose something with a better beer selection and a more lively atmosphere. There's no emotional connection here for me. I'm not English after all.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">What I really came for was the hike and the view. I would have loved to have visited the castle and old war bunkers cut into the cliffs (Dr. Evil eat your heart out), but I had the train to catch in a few hours and the cliffs were more of a priority. Both Hike and view delivered. With it being too windy for selfies I settled for turning my camera on the port and other people I came across. One woman walking solo like myself, reminded me of a character from an Agatha Christie novel. I wish I'd had a chat with her.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">The dozens of elderly French and English couples eating cream teas in the cliff-top cafe were both terrifying and endearing. I was hungry after my walk (that is, my walk without my lunch and pint!) so I decided to brave the sea of walking frames and old newspapers, and have a cream tea too. and it was delicious, as cream tea will always be. From the cafe window I could see the French coast in the distance.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">I went to see this movie for perhaps the same reason as everyone else in the cinema; to find out if Christopher Nolan could pull off an historical war piece. Being known more for his psychological thrillers, Nolan really has opened himself up to wider directing methods with his latest film <i>Dunkirk</i>.<span style="color: #5d5d5d;"> </span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">While we tend to complain about actors being typecast; Cillian Murphy being the outsider in conflicting distress, Tom Hardy as the good looking and silent-but-deadly hero/mega </span></span><span style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">villain (yes Nolan brings these two along for the ride), Directors are less critiqued for their type-cast (or is it type-direct?) ways. This of course comes from wanting to know what to expect from a movie directed by A in comparison to something directed by B. Understandable. But I think the best directors stand out for the diversity of their work. Now, I'm not going as far as some critics and comparing Nolan to greats such as Stanley Kubrick or Ang Lee, but this film does fall outside the perimeters of Nolan's established pattern. In fact in a recent interview he said he had always wanted to change up the game and make a war film (my words, not his). Has he done it? Yes, I think he has. But was it memorable?</span></div>

<span style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">After all that talk of <i>Dunkirk</i> being different from his other movies, I'm going to backtrack and say that there were a few similarities that kept that Nolan feel; the casting I've already touched on (we'll talk Harry Styles later), his habit of jumping around chronologically with the storyline was a bit confusing and unnecessary, and his superb sound mixing was noted and appreciated. There was room for a lot of loud and impressive explosions, which definitely didn't feel too OTT Michael Bay, and mixed with the well-researched noises of various rifles, pistols, machine guns, aeroplane flight noise and firing power, made the whole film feel realistic and period appropriate.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Thankfully, there were no outstanding acts of bravery so commonly seen in big budget action movies, with the one exception being Farrier (Tom Hardy), who singlehandedly defends the channel from unnamed-but-obviously-German bombers. Even this doesn't feel too offensive, as in real life Spitfire pilots were regarded as heroes among the British army. Nolan's understated number of ships and planes reinforced the point made my Commander Bolton (Kenneth Branagh) that the English were saving their fighting power for a battle on English soil. With the very small amount of knowledge I have about WWII, my extremely limited opinion is that the whole thing seemed to be very well researched, and for the most part historically accurate. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">However, I can see that an audience unfamiliar or unconnected with the French or English in WWII, might find <i>Dunkirk</i> less emotional than an English or commonwealth audience might. Having ancestors who fought for the Allies, I did feel the emotion, but without that connection it may have felt like just another war film, and not one to rival my other favourites in that genre (i.e. <i>Black Hawk Down</i>, <i>Thin Red Line</i>, <i>Apocalypse Now</i>). </span><span style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">But then again, how many other historic war films have been set at sea?</span></div>

<span style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">And the gender debate? It's a World War II film, there was always going to be more men on screen than women. They do appear as nurses or, in one of my favourite scenes, standing strongly on the deck of one of the rescue boats. Millennial audiences may have been happier with one of the main characters being a female, but then we have the whole damsel-in-destress issue. I think Nolan did well with what he was working with. At least Marion Cotillard didn't make a surprise appearance.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I don't claim to be a cookery expert by any means, but I do like cooking and I try to eat healthy as much as I can. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">This recipe for chicken was created after I bought a Tesco (supermarket) ready-made meal one evening when I was too tired to cook. I wanted something quick and easy, but on turning on the oven and heating up my meal, I found it would take the same amount of time to simply make it myself. As well as this, the chicken is only the 'main dish', meaning you have to prepare a side to go with it anyway. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Here's a little look at the recipe I came up with and a comparison of what goes into the different dishes.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">As you can see, the list of ingredients used in the ready-made involves a lot of preservatives and other dodgy things. For my recipe you'll need</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><span style="color: magenta;">a chicken breast, an onion, 1/4 of a pepper, mushrooms, olive oil, honey, soy sauce, salt, pepper, garlic and herbs. I also made mashed potatoes and beans to go with it, so you'll need some milk (I used oat milk) and butter.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><span style="color: magenta;">1.</span> Wrap the <span style="color: magenta;">chicken</span> in plastic wrap and lightly press to flatten, then season with <span style="color: magenta;">salt</span>, <span style="color: magenta;">pepper</span>, <span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: magenta;">garlic powder</span></span>, <span style="color: magenta;">herbs</span>, a drizzle of <span style="color: magenta;">honey</span> and a few splashes of <span style="color: magenta;">soy sauce</span>. You can do this earlier and leave it in the fridge to marinate, or you can do it right before cooking and re-coat the chicken with the honey and soy sauce after you turn it over in the pan.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><span style="color: magenta;">2.</span> While you are seasoning the chicken, heat a little <span style="color: magenta;">oil</span> in a pan until the oil is hot but not smoking, induction stove mark 6 if your elements go up to 9. Add the chicken to the pan, searing one side of the chicken without the lid on, then flip (add more honey and soy sauce if desired) and add 1/2 a chopped <span style="color: magenta;">onion</span> and cover. Stove mark 5 when the lid is on. Putting the lid on the pan is key to this recipe so make sure you choose a pan with a lid!</span></div>

Try not to stir anything, the onions will soak up the honey and soy, and with the lid on they will be moist enough for nothing to stick and burn to the pan. A stove-top casserole if you will.</span></div>

Add a couple of spoonfuls of the <span style="color: magenta;">hot water</span> to the chicken while it cooks and take the lid off the chicken for the last 5 minutes of cooking to give the chicken some time to crisp/get sticky from the marinade. Turn your element back to 6 or 7 and keep an eye that nothing is burning at this stage! </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">On Saturday I went along to the Goodwood Festival of Speed in Chichester, West Sussex. It was a full day of events, very well organised to showcase vehicles from all areas of performance. The main event is the hill climb, with cars from 6 different classes. These Batches were; pre WWI, touring, rally NASCAR and drift, sports cars and GTs, F1, Ferrari and single seaters, and Supercars. As well as this there was an aero section including typhoon and red arrow displays, helicopters and other historic planes, and an action sports section with BMX, mountain bike and motocross.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">The Goodwood festival of speed has been going since 1996, with 2003 being the biggest year with 158,000 people attending. The festival is held over four days, Thursday through Sunday, and is held annually in June/July to avoid clashing with the F1 season.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I got up close and personal with a couple of show cars, and took some photos of my favourites from the day. Some personal favourites of mine included seeing Ken Block's car, the red arrow aero display, and the beautiful orange Porsche with custom woven blue orange and cream tartan interior panels.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I was lucky enough to visit Northern Ireland at the start of the month to celebrate an old school friend's birthday. I was only there for the weekend, but we made the most of it by exploring Belfast the first day and hunting for filming locations for the popular tv show Game of Thrones on the second. Enjoy the photos!</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Botanic Gardens and Ulster Museum</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="font-size: small;">
<br /></div>
<span style="font-size: x-small;">The Ulster museum was quite hard to navigate, but once we found our way around it was really very good. As well as having displays on the history of Northern Ireland from present to past, it went further back than this and took you back through time right back to prehistoric times. A cultural history museum AND natural history museum, the Ulster felt well curated and aimed at children as well as adults. One of the most interesting displays was a real mummified Egyptian Woman called Takabuti. The architecture of the museum is also interesting, as their expansion project saw a brutalist mullet-like add on at the back and side of the existing building. The interior exhibitions really make use of this space, and I suppose it's better to compromise rather than have the old building demolished.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Although it was raining the botanic gardens were also lovely, if not on the small side. The real highlight here was the beautiful victorian greenhouse and her friendly gardener.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">St George's Farmers Market</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">A local landmark, the people of Belfast really are lucky to have this produce and crafts/retail market. Unlike the markets in Budapest where everything felt reproduced and cheap, St George's felt like it captured the feeling of the city - a friendly and timeless vibrancy. We got breakfast baps and watched local Irish men and woman filling up their shopping baskets with freshly dug potatoes and lovely glistening fish and cheese. </span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Game of Thrones Tour</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">We were so excited for this! Because we were short on time, and Heather doesn't drive, we decided taking a bus tour would ensure we saw all the filming locations in one day. I never take bus tours and I don't much enjoy group activities, so with that in mind let me tell you we had a great time!</span></div>

Also some of Brianne's fight scenes and the meeting with Catelyn Stark. The beach where you can see Hodor's name in the sand is also where Melisandre gives her 'the night is dark and full of terrors speech when they burn the fires and Stannis is sworn in to the Light.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Old Street Station is not just a train station. It is home to some of East London's most enterprising small business pop-up shops, who set up for a few days or weeks because of the diversity of the foot traffic. From party animals to artists, students and businessmen, Old Street is the place where the Northern Line meets East London.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">One such pop-up was the HonestBrew bar and bottle store, which was open from the 5th to the 17th of this month. Yep, that's right you've just missed it, but luckily for me, I made it in for a tasting thanks to my lovely friend Olivia who had won two tickets!</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Rather regretfully (but not ashamedly), I don't claim to be an expert on any sort of beer related matters, but I do know a few basics, and although I wont be giving detailed descriptions of each beer, I will say that I had a wonderful time and that is really the reason why beer is brewed and consumed by expert craft brewers - to be enjoyed and puzzled-over by not so expert drinkers...</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">The English say some weird stuff, which could leave you in an awkward situation if you've just arrived in town. Although my own colloquialisms can be hard to understand at times too, here are the meanings behind 15 slang words or phrases I've encountered since arriving in the UK.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"></span></div>
<a name='more'></a><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><span style="color: magenta;">"You alright?"</span> - The most confusing 'hello' ever invented. Sometimes said in passing with no response needed, sometimes said in earnest where a short response is insufficient and offensive the other party. Ironically it is always incorrect to say 'I'm good thanks, how are you?' as this is no longer a greeting, and no one actually wants to start a conversation with you. Best response is to repeat it back and keep walking.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><span style="color: magenta;">"Ey up!"</span> - another way of saying hello, typically a Northern greeting. Still unsure of correct response.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><span style="color: magenta;">"I saw your man/woman the other day"</span> - This one still gets me. Mostly an Irish saying, 'your man' is usually a total stranger. Usually used in chatty conversations instead of 'the man' or 'that stranger at the bar on the opposite side of the room'. Very hard to focus on the conversation when you're panicking and trying to understand who the hell they're talking about.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><span style="color: magenta;">"Pants"</span> - In the UK pants only mean underpants. If you use pants instead of trousers there may be a sharp intake of breath until you reassure everyone that you do in fact have underwear on. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><span style="color: magenta;">"Vest"</span> - Apparently vest means singlet. Call it what you will; tank top, spaghetti straps, singlet, wife beater, thermal, but to me a vest is a knitted jumper with no sleeves. Also it does not mean a waistcoat, which will always be a waistcoat and not a vest!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><span style="color: magenta;">"cherrio!"</span> - Meaning goodbye, not small pink sausages with red casing commonly eaten at children's parties.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><span style="color: magenta;">"Ice lolly"</span> - I'd call this an ice block. Also another word for ice cream on a stick.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><span style="color: magenta;">"I've been stitched up"</span> - When someone has tricked you or put you in a bad position. Very close to 'I've been fucked over' or 'I'm screwed'.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
