After finding a return coach to Blackpool for under 35 sterling I got straight on booking my intensive course, which is all set for the week after next. I'll be leaving next Sunday and hopefully returning the Friday after with my licence.
The card for my DS was posted from Hong Kong today, with a claimed seven to fifteen days delivery it's pretty dubious if it'll get here in time, but all I can do is pray it does as it will be seriously indispensable for the trip.
I've started watching the anime series Baccano!, which is alright. It's sold as a sort of a 1920s American Gangster deal with lots of different characters with completely different stories intertwining, kind of making it sound like the next Cowboy Bebop, but it's nowhere near that good. The one cool thing about it is how it seems to have every famous voice actor under the sun, from Vicious to Kyon's sister back to Ryosuke Takahashi, it had me pausing the first episode every five minutes to find out where I knew that voice from.
I started watching Breaking Bad recently as well, which is a really dark comedy about a science teacher that discovers he has cancer, and with less than two years to live he starts making crystal meth to leave his family with some money, with hilarous consequences.
The lead's played by Hal from Malcolm in the Middle, which is the perfect casting. But typical to every decent American series that tries to do something a little different, it only has seven episodes, I'm enjoying it while it's here though.
One rather nice discovery is the Jazz Spastiks, who I came across in a random drifting video on youtube. Great beats, and a 23 track album for only £7, a very reasonable price that I am more than willing to pay when every penny goes to the artist.
Might even be the first album I've ever bought.
