I finally finished series 1 of Forbrydelsen ('The Killing'). 

I loved many things about the show; Lund & Meyer, sweaters, the absolutely outstanding cinematography. I thought the plot was as messy as it was dense. Ultimately it was unsatisfying.

Speaking of mornings, this was daybreak in Salaries, Andalucia, back in November 2005.

I think once you start deliberately writing anthemic radio songs, you're artistically circling the drain creatively.

Some early U2 popping up on my playlist. This band were *so* good before the stadium era.

Orient & Overseas Container Line (OOCL) Hamburg leaving Southampton, 2010. I used to work at a shipping company doing logistics for containers. I hated it, but the ships were cool.

The old Railway Terminus at Southwestern House, Southampton. Long since closed. This was the original terminus for passengers travelling on ships ex Southampton, Titanic most famously. It ajoins the hotel where the affluent used to stay.

Southampton, Hampshire, back in December 2010. Snow was quite rare in my 15yrs there; this and the previous year saw some of the largest accumulations I'd seen. This was the same weather that closed EGKK (London Gatwick) for about three days.

These were taken with an HTC Desire.

This is a curious idea for a game. The interior of an Oscar II sub is absolutely fascinating, and apparently very well realised.

It's nearly Xmas, which means it's a good time for the Die Hard song:

It's that time of year when it's routinely around 25F in the mornings. The kid in me likes it, the biker in me absolutely hates it.
