Heroes

Quote of the moment:
"Wales 32:20 Ireland" - Wales won the Grand Slam: every one of their Six Nations matches and thus the overall title. Hurrah! Obviously next year I wouldn't be able to get away with this sort of glory seeking because of my uni's location. I would be ceaselessly mocked by the actual Welsh students because England came 4th and they won. Still, it won't happen again for at least 25 years!

Will has instructed me to say something about Owain Glyndwr, last King of Wales, being a dude. I can't actually remember why. Anyway, poor Willy got rejected from Edinburgh. Sympathies duly extended.

I saw Tom Cruise in Tesco. Honest. He had a bit of a rusky accent, but he was the right height and looked bang on apart from being pale. I reckon it's method acting. Obviously in his next film he has to go into a supermarket and find a cloth to wax his car with.

My present for Vicky for her 18th birthday today: a boxed set of Romeo + Juliet and Moulin Rouge on DVD. That notable Baz Luhrmann lover Koel would be proud of me.

Finally: a lesson in what heroism really is, from someone who earns less per year than David Beckham, a supposed hero, does in a day.
