Four friends on a touring holiday of vampire country in Eastern Europe find themselves in an idyllic and mysterious village that turns out to be not what it seems. Why do so many residents have lopsided faces, for example. And why is everyone so sad? And why are mists so prevalent? And who lives in the mysterious castle on the hill? Gradually, the four friends uncover the village's secret, and figure out the fate that lies in store....

I took this amazing bus journey once again today, and I urge every visitor to South Wales to try to do so too. My recommendation would be to board the bus at Llanvihangel Crucorney and spend a few hours in Hay on Wye before taking the bus back to LC. The first trip is amazing enough, through lovely Welsh countryside to the lovely town of Hay, but the return journey over the Black Hills is something else with some spectacular views. The weather today was excellent, and I spent several hours in the Hay bookshops, before returning to LC, where I had left my car.

Not the way to treat your fans.

Some of you may have seen my post about the beautiful woman I noticed in a Utube video. This turned out to be the French actress  Mylene Demangeot. I discovered she has a website and that this has a contact feature, and so I thought I would send her my compliments. This I did, but it appears the messages do not go to Ms Demangeot, but come back to the sender's own inbox. This displays a not very pleasant side of stardom. I therefore withdraw my compliments.
