Hi, welcome to the wiki! Thanks for updating your info, it's nice to learn a bit about our slanza/wiki members. I have Ponyo on my list of movies to see @ the film festival. Me and my girls (Jen and Helen - love that name!) are big fans of all the Hiyao Miyazaki films, makes a pleasant change from the usual Disney fare!
