So apparently it’s the Spring Equinox today, so it should officially be the first day of Spring! 🙂
I have been noticing the lighter nights, and that’s a good thing, because it’s closer to the Summer which I love.
Soon we’ll be putting out clocks forward, and Summer will be here in no time. It will mean I have to swap my wardrobe around, from the Autumn/Winter to Spring/Summer in a few weeks time when the weather gets better.
I can’t believe I forgot to write about one of my favourite shows on Amazon which I watched at the back end of last year. I’m talking about the Spanish football documentary, Six Dreams.
As the name suggests, it follows the lives of 6 people involved in in the Spanish Premier League, La Liga, including 3 footballers. The main characters in the film are Iñaki Williams, Saúl Niñguez, Quique Cárcel, Amaia Gorostiza, Andrés Guardado and Eduardo Berizzo.
We’re back for another classic fragrance review, and this time round I am looking at L’Homme Libre from Yves Saint Laurent. I’ve had this one since it’s year of release, 2011, and can’t believe I’ve never gave it a proper feature, because it is quite a nice scent, especially for this time of year.
So this is a bit of a remix from the YSL Homme original scent, something which I’ve never bought or tested, so I sadly can’t compare it. I got this the same time as YSL La Nuit L’Homme which is a scent for the evenings, whereas this is best for day.
I found myself a new show on Amazon Prime… Four More Shots Please!
It doesn’t matter if it’s a film or TV show, I love watching coming of age style of films which is all about friends living live and having a good time.
My favourite from Amazon was Red Oaks, a brilliant show, and there’s been plenty more.
If there’s one style of trainers which every guy needs to have, I think it’s got to be the triple black.
I myself have a few pairs, and of course one of the pioneers of the term triple black has been Nike. I love my Air Max, but they’re seen as a sports shoe, a casual trainer, and something you should wear only on really casual occasions. But what if you can’t actually tell it’s a sports trainer? That’s where the triple black comes in.
Have you ever bought a film not because of the plot or name, but because of the T-shirt that the people wear on the cover?
That’s why I bought Adventureland on blu ray! 😀
Years ago I saw this T-shirt which had the word games repeated on the front of it, but I never knew what it meant, where it was from, or anything about it. I saw that design a few times, and then I discovered it was from a film called Adventureland.
So I looked into the film, and found that it was a coming of age film, my favourite genre, so had to get it to see what it was all about.
Twitter, It’s not you, It’s me….OK That’s a lie, it is you. It’s just not working out any more. It’s over…
It’s 2019, and it is my 10th year of using Twitter for the blog, and probably 11th overall. I posted on the blog a few years ago that I thought Twitter just wasn’t the same, and in the past 3 or 4 years, I’ve used it less and less.
From the heights of posting 400 times a month in 2011 and 2012, to the lows of the past couple of years, sometimes barely making it to 50 tweets a month.
What has changed? Mainly two things. Myself, and the world.
A fragrance which costs £3.50…Surely this is going to be terrible, right?
Primark have released a few men’s fragrances, and I’ve just got one of their men’s aftershaves, Black Opulence.
But what does a £3.50 aftershave actually smell like?
Hey guys!
So it was time for another film night, and I saw that Loving Pablo had been added to Amazon Video, so I decided to give it a watch.
It’s a film about the story of Pablo Escobar, told mostly in the point of view from Virginia Vallejo, a girlfriend of Pablo and famous journalist in Colombia. I have seen Narcos, the Netflix documentary series about the same story, which obviously had more detail since it’s spread over seasons and many shows, rather than this which is a 2 hour film.
