have you met miss jones?

well i think you should.
Jennifer Jones has a background in fashion, having worked in the UK and Australia for iconic brands such as Polo Ralph Lauren, Nike and Diesel. After 10 years in the fashion industry she left Diesel as Managing Director of Australia and started “Have you met Miss Jones” in 2006.

The business originally started as a fashion agency but her roots have drawn her back into the world of home-wares. Jennifer’s parents John and Millie have had an export company for the past 35 years, exporting beautiful items from the Philippines to the UK and Europe. Over many dinners and Sunday lunches a plan was hatched to launch their home-wares into the Australian market.

“Have you met Miss Jones” now operates as a home-wares company specialising in bone china and other beautiful items from the Philippines. Jennifer is responsible for the sales and distribution in Australia while John and Millie handle production in the Philippines.

gran torino

Walt Kowalski: Relax, zipperhead. I'm not gonna shoot you. I'd look down too, if I was you. You know, I knew you were a dipshit the first time I ever saw you. Then I thought you were worse with women than stealing cars... Toad.
Thao Vang Lor: It's Thao.
Walt Kowalski: What?
Thao Vang Lor: It's not Toad, my name is Thao.
Walt Kowalski: Yeah, well, you were blowing it with that girl who was there. Not that I give two shits about a toad like you.
Thao Vang Lor: You don't know what you're talking about.
Walt Kowalski: You're wrong, eggroll, I know exactly what I'm talking about. I may not be the most pleasant person to be around, but I got the best woman who was ever on this planet to marry me. I worked at it, it was the best thing ever happened to me. Hands down. But you, you know, you're letting Click-Clack, Ding-Dong and Charlie Chan, just walk out with Miss What's-her-face. She likes you, you know? Though I don't know why!
Thao Vang Lor: Who?
Walt Kowalski: Yum Yum. You know, the girl in the purple sweater. She's been looking at you all day, stupid!
Thao Vang Lor: You mean Youa?
Walt Kowalski: Yeah... Yum Yum... yeah... nice girl... nice girl, very charming girl... I talked with her... yeah. But you, you just let her walk out right out with the Three Stooges. And you know why? 'Cause you're a big fat pussy. Well, I gotta go. Good day, pussycake.

use your bed ...

... like a trampoline, i said, higher! higher!
just for love if you know what i mean, i said, higher! higher!

crystal castles

not impressed. disappointed with their performance overall - nevertheless, i will not deprive you of the clips i took during. i just want to add that i think its uncool for bands to disrespect their fans by doing the following:
  1. making us wait over an hour (ETA) quite a while for the show to start ( ... and might i add - not apologising for it )
  2. stalling for about 5 minutes, especially when the performance only went for a mere 45 minutes
  3. not performing an encore - even with fans cheering for an extended period of time
