Join a Flashmob

The flashmob was part of the Size of Wales project, which aims to raise money to protect an area of rainforest the size of Wales. The concept is a bit of an ironic take on the way, whenever people talk about rainforest destruction, they often make reference to "an area of rainforest the size of Wales" being destroyed. Nice to know we've given the world a unit of measurement.

So, on Sunday morning I toddled along to Torchwood HQ. At first, not much appeared to be happening...

...and then this bunch of people appeared.

The guy in the middle with the microphone was some minor celebrity I've never heard of Dan Mitchell from ITV's Show Me the Funny.

There then followed a couple of hours of running around with lumps of chipboard painted as leaves while being filmed for a promo video. I didn't get any photos of this happening, but I'll post a link to the video when it appears on the Intercyberwebs.

Meanwhile, the postcrossing task continues to pay out returns. Today I got a postcard from Japan.

Arigato Yuuyu!
