    Riding Down Under - Tropical Cairns Australia

    Lovely event at the Sydney Opera House, rain held off. Lots of stairs and walking...pretty done in when I got home. The visuals in Mountain were breathtaking....and one of the almost solo pieces by the lead violin who was also conducting was a tour de force. (y) Only home by 11.30 and too tired...

    Only in India you say!

    Surprised it came to Aus but then we get a number of the Japanese models inline 400 Vtecs I always wanted. That 1400 must be crazy top heavy with a full tank. Very muscular looking. Might even get some nods at a Harley meet.

    Active imaginations 🙄 Orwell was alluding to Churchill's cover up of the Enigma machines role in the war as he could not write openly about it due to the Secrets Act. He was an insider at the time and the secrecy about it was draconian. The actual story was not revealed until 1994 - read Body...

    TV shows currently watching

    Yeah actually I never finished House of Cards once Spacey left but have it up for watching now. I always liked his penchant for breaching the fourth wall. Good cast in both series. The Americans still ranks at the top for me in the genre.
