We’ve been here for just over 24 hours. Ambleside in the Lake District. Feels like half the lakes are above our heads.

It’s wet. Really wet. Misty. Rainy. Spitting. Drizzly.
Just watched Planet of the Apes. Pretty good.

Course I can’t figure out why Wahlberg-Hunky-Hero didn’t stay with Stella-Sexy-Bikini-Girl and the Bonham-Carter-Ape-Thing. I mean the possibilities were endless – he was a smart guy – couldn’t he figure out that if the ship, Pericles and himself could arrive in such disparate times and physical locations that there was *NO* chance of him getting back to Earth in some recognisable way. There were some rather good bits even from a Desmond Morris point of view – the bit where Stella-Sexy-Bikini-Babe storms off when Wahlberg-Hunky-Hero sits up talking to Bonham-Carter-Ape-Thing – obviously craving the attention. Primitives eh?

So what was he thinking? As Xander said in a recent episode – “wild monkey love or smoochy Sarah McLachlan love” – heh heh.
