Alex de Ravin: Excited about exploring a whole range of things on this blog which is, in fact, an extension of one I've been putting out since 2006. So postings about travel, books and photography I like, history, personal/anecdotal stuff of the non-'I Suffer' variety. So a potpouri of stuff to prove I'm just your average well-balanced kinda guy!

We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars.

'The History Boys' (Hector)

'Pass the parcel. That's sometimes all you can do. Take it. Feel it and pass it on. It's not for me. Not for you. But for someone someday. Pass it on boys. That's the game I want you to learn. Pass it on.'
