Happy Sunday everyone! Yes that’s right (I hope you’re paying attention Mr C) it’s Sunday... and it’s May!..I think. So now that has been established we can continue.

Good news, we have f1 links this week! Firstly Bahrain wants to get F1 back soon , we’ll have to see if they’re hopes come true though. Naoise from Manipe F1 has a very interesting article on the banning of DRS in Monaco. It’s certainly a must read. As a final f1 related must read, please check out Christine’s post on a great interview with Rubens about his racing fantasy. Ohh and remember Par has written up some more of his thoughts on Spa last year, check them out here.

In non F1 news, we live commented Dr Who again last night, have a look at what we thought at the time here.

From what we’ve watched on TV to helping us prepare for what we’re going to watch, RG has written about songs by countries E – I in this years Eurovision song contest. Any questions about this years contest, RG is the man to ask.

F1 big picture is truly a great feature I’m sure you’ll all agree, but now even the f1 photographers know it! How awesome is this.

A link to some more amazing photos now, you’ll all be aware by now that there was a rather special wedding in London on Friday. I wont go on about it too much, because there are plenty of things to read on the internet regarding the brilliant day however I wanted to point out the official British Monarchy Flickr account. Catherine really did get to wear some stunning dresses and my personal favourite photograph of the day.

Okay, onto the fun arty links for today;

• Eduardo Diaz Bourgeot makes some brilliant pieces on imagination

• Wouldn’t you love to have a room where you can get lost in the walls, which you drew! How amazing!

• You really can make stunning and breath taking art with the smallest thing, say some toothpicks.

• Ever wondered what it might be like to live in Ikea?

• This is honestly the most amazing origami work I have ever ever seen. How beautiful.

• I know Easter is now over but I hope you’ve all eaten your chocolates now, you never know if they’ll fight back..

• These optimistic illustrations are just adorable there is even a panda one for Christine.

As usual I’m going to leave you with a video. This time I’ve chosen something I hope you’ll all like. Brian Thomson has a stunning short film on the Festival of Colours (Holi) – something I’ve always wanted to go to, and hope to document in the future.

It’s such a lovely video of how beautiful the festival is. Also, for an alternative look at it, there is another video.

I hope you all have a lovely day, and remember, it’s Sunday..

    Morning from cloudy Tundraland everyone. Yesterday was the correct dau to take a hike to downtown. Did you know that you can get books in libraries on F1 for free, Bernie must be having a fit !

    Anyway, if you understand Spanish, you can connect to that webpage and follow the race via audio, like if it was a radio.

    I understand some Spanish (former Spanish colony and all). Thanks! :D

    Well, I do believe I have come to the right place, so do you want me to "rack, pack and stack", or give me a bearing to the alternate site.....

  • MartiV801/05/2011 at 12:11

    Exactly, but I think Dani is faster.

    Lorenzo, Pedrosa, Stoner, Rossi.

    Not sure. In edit mode, I have an icon that looks like a hand with a pencil above it called "writing helper". Clicking on it does nothing.

    OK, I got it. Agreed. Though Rossi is quite far back. Think Stoner had a knock with Simoncelli which is why he's not with the front two

  • Journeyer01/05/2011 at 12:16

    No the icons are to the right of the right of the co-responding text. The Feedbacl icon is a icon of a page of text with what appears to be a couple of post-it notes attached.

    Anyway, I think you need to have an unpublished post to use as the template. Anyway, I copied and pasted my entire May blog to use as the source for my June blog.

    Seems to work, but I lost some formatting.

    Thanks everyone....

    Leaving Lorenzo for dead now.

    Maybe. Probably wouldn't have happened if they were battling for 3rd.

  • Bassano01/05/2011 at 12:50

    Maybe. Probably wouldn't have happened if they were battling for 3rd.

    He's not exactly likely to take the championship this year I s'pose

  • Journeyer01/05/2011 at 12:52

    He's not exactly likely to take the championship this year I s'pose

    True. Despite that, Rossi still moves up to 4th in the championship, with only Lorenzo, Pedrosa, and Stoner ahead. Considering the Duc he has now, that is quite an achievement - he's ahead not only of Hayden, but Dovi, Simoncelli, and Spies as well.

    True. Still very surprised at how much they fell back, though, considering their form with Stoner at the end of last year.

    Ever wondered what it might be like to live in Ikea?

    Never been to one. That story makes me wonder if they might get into leasing in-storem apartments with all furniture under their name being included in the rent. All that's needed from them now is a simracing cockpit in their catalog. ;)

  • Joe in Fla01/05/2011 at 16:20

    Methinks this is done for the races on the street and road courses only.

    Yes, early in Indycar they only did ovals and Champcar couldn't buy TV coverage. With more RC and SC, it'll happen more often

    Launch of the shuttle Endeavour now looks like being between 8th-15th. The crew have returned to Houston which is their home base. Normally they would be in Florida 3 days before a launch.

    For those who missed the comment during the race.

    The shuttle launch will not take place before May 8th probably.

    Probably not necessary then..

    I'll have plenty on tomorrow on the golf course tomorrow. My worry then will be my right foot which has been aching today. Particularly when I got out of the car after arriving at the track after holding it in a certain throttle position for so long, so keen was I to get there. :) I had nice leisurely cruise home though, which was quite relaxing.

    It was the foot I injured last year, thought it had fully healed now.

  • Pat W01/05/2011 at 22:46

    woohoo! Cheer on Catherine's dad for me :)

    I had no idea he was there, what was he driving?

    I didn't buy a program and being a British racing circuit I could barely hear the trackside commentary at the best of times, the tannoy system is so feeble.
