Visiting Kazakhstan sounds exciting! I wonder if Borat helped their tourism industry. I also wonder what the new capital is like with all the grand buildings- whether overall it's much better than an ego trip for the president.

I haven't seen Enduring Love but i've now added it to my Balloonacy list, thanks :). I hope Rhys Ifans does more for the image of Welshmen than in Notting Hill.

Yeah I like them too. Wouldn't want to go up one though - especially after seeing that film with Rhys Ifans, Samantha Morton and James Bond. Was it called Enduring Love?
