It’s Wednesday And We Are Orange

So there are cheap seats and BOGOF deals. The queues are snaking both ways. It’s Pride and Prejudice and the audience is 98% female. However there is an old guy in shorts and me there. Not sure about the shorts as the place has aircon. The chick flick lives on (classical edition).

So down to the film and I didn’t know the story. Well there’s far too much dancing. However I liked it anyway. The filming was very good, maybe a little grainy, intentional or was I just too close to the screen. The place was full of ladies with Orange phones quietly laughing to themselves. The acting was superb, especially Keira Knightly. Oh and the English countryside and weather deserve a mention for their moodiness. Arguments in the rain.

File under, won’t have thought it but worth seeing just don’t buy the soundtrack album.

So the last of my garden carrots is fast approaching and I’m missing the taste of fresh Basil.  What will I do for Christmas.  Ah, the window sill.  Carrots on the outside & Basil in the middle.  Fresh veg for Christmas, indeed!!

The Best Time Of Day

"It was an early morning yesterday
And I was up before the dawn
And I really have enjoyed my stay
But I must be moving on"

Not quite the sentiments but it will do.
