I went to an aquarium this weekend with the kids.
Not my pic obviously, but wonderful nonetheless.

Another beautiful shot of some buildings. Why am I so interested in architecture I have no idea, but I’m always spellbound by cities.

Top Ten Magazines
Private Eye – indispensable for the politically minded (and worth it just for the Street of Shame media pages)
The New Yorker – excellent if you have time on your hands; beautifully presented and insightful essays (see also Vanity Fair)
The New York Review of Books – wonderful, brilliant, unequalled
EDGE – ‘Digital Culture,’ or as we on planet Unpretentious call it, “gamingâ€
The Financial Times Arts & Weekend magazine – easily the best of the supplements
National Geographic TRAVELER - worth it for the photography, and some excellent tips for the traveller
Singletrack – quarterly cycling magazine, difficult to track down. Again the photography is brilliant
The New Statesman – better for the revamp, and still occasionally controversial
Mojo – the best music magazine not called Rolling Stone (and their free CD’s are excellent)
Monocle – A new one this. If fact it made the list on the strength of one issue. If this magazine delivers on its remit as a Der Spiegel for the anglosphere (a stylish and culturally savvy world briefing), then it has itself another subscriber

When I first visited Tallinn, a few years ago, I took Mrs. tyger to this Chinese restaurant. it was tasty. It’s not far from the main Viru entrance to Old Town (just along the town wall), and very much recommended.

I realised when I got home last night that my Sony K800i cell phone’s camera was set at 2MP. It has a max of 3.2MP, and I have a 1GB M2 MemoryStick, so there really is no excuse. Still they’re not too bad.
Sphere: Related ContentI fly back to England tomorrow. I have just uploaded some photos to my flickr account, but there will, I promise, be more posted when I get chance.
It has been a great break. I haven’t had chance to write as much as I would have liked, but it has been great to spend time with my family. The snow had blanketed Tallinn like a fairy-tale and it has been a beautiful week. I can’t wait to move here for good.
If anyone needs a writer in Tallinn - drop me a line.
I’m on the laptop in WAYNES’S COFFEE. I am on my second large green tea and have just polished off a cherry muffin. Muffins are my weakness, and I would take a blueberry one over any snack in the world.
I hope this post finds all my readers well and normal tygerland service will resume on Sunday.

Sorry if the blog is a bit lightweight today, just very busy and gearing up for flying out to Tallinn on Saturday. As ever, I’ll be travel-blogging from the Estonian capital (obviously the shot is from San Fran, not Tallinn, which indeed has its own tram system).
