The first Harry Potter film I ever saw was the forth instalment: Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. Not having seen any of the previous films or read any of the books, I actually found myself enjoying the movie. I do love to read books, but I also enjoy a well sorted movie. Long story short, I did end up watching all the Harry Potter films and reading all the books. Now onto Twilight. Again, I haven’t read any of the books and all I knew was that it’s a story about teenage vampires. So, did I enjoy it?

Quite a disappointing episode for me this week. Only 2 car tests, no real news, replayed footage during the Top Gear Awards ( some footage we saw just last week ), no challenges, and last but not least, top gear stunt man, who is almost as bad as Top Gear Australia’s “What Where They Thinking?” board. Aside from the fact that the episode was dull, they also declared the Honda FCX Clarity “the future of motoring”. This would have been fine, except they glossed over some of the issues involved.

If I were to travel with just a point and shoot camera again though, there would be a few things I’d do differently.

Six weeks. One point and shoot. Could I do it? That certainly was the question I was asking myself as I was stepping onto my flight to Bangkok. Of course, other thoughts crossed my mind too, like “Did I forget something?” and  ”Will that kilo of ham in my luggage go off before we get there?” Well, let’s find out if the G9 was up to the task.
