Maurice Gee’s “Going West” is the basis for this animated commercial commissioned by the New Zealand Book Council. The advertisement quite literally shows the book coming alive. What a fantastic way of using of a book; it leaves me wanting more.

Girgoyle has just been out on a shopping expedition looking for new work shoes. These Dr Marten [^] “Skelly Boots” would have been right up her street, but I don’t think they are right for a customer-facing position though!
And I don’t know that I would get away with wearing these under a suit in place of the classic smooth black 3-hole 1461 that I normally wear.
It was almost love at first sight when I saw this kids face plate [^] in the neatorama [^] store.
Amazingly a few days before Mum had said that she wanted some more breakfast plates. It turns out that these are just on 22cm, falling nicely between tea and dinner plate size.
Does this mean that I have just found Mum’s Christmas present?
I’ve posted before about the work of the Shirt.Woot people (UpgraDead and Rampaging Rabbit T-Shirt).
“Give Till It Hurts” [^] is the first serious t-shirt there that I have seen, and one of the best. As the blog post says “Absence makes the heart grow fonder.”
Organ Donation is something important that everyone needs to talk about. It has the potential to be literally life altering or even life saving, as a friend is just discovering. Most people wouldn’t say no if they or a loved one needed a replacement organ, but would they be willing to donate? I hope that the answer is an emphatic “YES!”
It probably isn’t the sort of thing that you would want to wear after you have seen The Meaning of Life though.
Swindon Twinned with …
…Walt Disney World [^], in Florida.
Is it just me or is everyone else wondering why?
I thought that the twinned towns [^] were supposed to have some similarities. It’s hard to see the connection between a American tourist attraction and the former railway town. It seems that the link is a poem by Rebecca Warren [^] comparing the Magic Roundabout [^] with the Disney’s spinning teacup ride.
To further confuse newcomers the roundabout complex will feature a sign proclaiming the twinning with the Magic Kingdom.
Magic Roundabout, Swindon
