This weekend in Oxford was a lot of fun! Friday night I went with some of my friends to see Skyfall! It was really interesting seeing a James Bond movie in England. It was cool to watch with a British audience to their reactions and it also tied in with a lot that we've been learning in class about Britishness. I won't give anything away but I really enjoyed it!
But the main thing that happened this weekend was Top Gear Live. A small group of us heading to Birmingham yesterday to see a Top Gear Arena Show. If you don't know what Top Gear is, you should. It is fantastic! It's a show about cars, but I watch it because the host are really great and funny! It's really interesting and entertaining. Well anyway they do live arena shows with stunts and stuff and we found out about the one in Birmingham and went! It was fantastic! We got to see Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond, and James May goof off and there were cool cars and stunts and stuff. There were pogo sticks jumping over cars and flipping over cars too! That was really cool! They played some games with cars. One where they fling a car (with a host inside) into some other cars. And another one was sidecar polo which was like polo on motor bikes. It was great! The show was fantastic and it was cool to get to see the guys and the Stig. Yes! I got to see the Stig race! Who woulda thunk I'd get excited about going to a car show...but it was great! Top Gear is one of my favourites so...
Well that's about it. Thursday I leave for France and Belgium! I'll write about that later. Bye!
