A premier host

I went for an audition the other day and when I came out, across the road, this was going on. I didn't think the audition was that big a deal then I realised it must be a film premier. This hoopla was to tell us that Host was in cinemas soon and you can ignore it at your leisure.

As you'd expect in Hollywood, people we're pretty blase about the event, passersby threw a cursory glance in the general direction of the flashing lights and then carried on with their business. I think this may be to do with the fact that there's no huge names in Host unless you can't Brent Wendall Williams who has a whopping 20 letters, so his name is massive.

LA Loves

Today is the start of my third week here. It's been a very interesting journey so far. There are definitely some things I love about being here and some things I'm not so keen on. Here are my top five loves.

I LOVE the sunshine. It hasn't rained once since I've been here. I made a big deal about buying a replacement umbrella when I lost my old one. It was about as pointless as buying a ski jacket for a safari. Yesterday, it was 24degrees. 

Another big LOVE is the Whole foods Market. I love a shop that sells vegetables I don't recognise or can't pronounce. 

You gotta LOVE the road markings. I know it seems odd to appreciate something like that but the city seems to have a real love affair with right angles and here, like New York City, there is a very handy grid system with road markings that even a driving simpleton like me can adhere to. 

Something else I LOVE a lot is their TV. Hundreds of channels with tonnes of films on all day. This is my dream set up. As well as all that, I've got Netflix. On Sunday, while nursing a mild hangover, I just lounged around watching movies and Breaking Bad. Perfect. 

I LOVE the variety of bars and restaurants. Every meal I've had out has been excellent. Not just good but delicious. You know those meals where you think aboutthem later that day, yeah, that good. 

So that's my loves. Next time, my loathes.
