Ok, so I'm having a couple of extra days off work this week. I've got a doctors certificate and everything. Feel a little twinge of guilt about not going in, but I seriously need to rest or the lurgy will get even worser!

Finally got 'round to watching Billy Elliot. It was as gorgeous and soppy-making as expected - loved it. (And my goodness, [should there be a spoiler warning here?] grown-up Billy (Adam Cooper)... phwooaar! I do so... admire ballet boys... :)

This is fantastic!
Blurb from the yootubes page:

Australian band Skipping Girl Vinegar sent a hobo monkey (Baker) to the edge of space, in a low rent spaceship made from foam and gaffa tape. On the morning of Sat 27th Nov 2011, attached to a giant weather balloon, Baker and the onboard camera soared to 110,000 feet (4 times higher than Mt Everest) capturing the rolling image that is now part of this new film clip. Reaching speeds of over 200kmh and experiencing temperatures as low as -50 degrees Baker carried an Mp3 player beaming out the new SGV single 'Chase the Sun' and messages to the Universe from the people of Earth.

Enjoy... :)
