Someone somehow got the idea I was in London this weekend. I don’t know how. I was at home in Congleton. Luke and yan came up; I read the poor review of Quantum of Solace in the Sunday times from last week (the reviewer does not understand Bond). I also watched Stuart little 2 on the T.V and found myself sobbing it may be the effects of going to euro Disney, but ever since going to Paris I have had a growing soft spot for kids films. Something in the very mise-en-scene makes me both feel like a kid and makes me want to cry. Paradise lost, I guess, but at least there’s room in this cynical world for some old fashioned fun.

My chair is in for repairs this week. I’m kind of feeling glum about it, but I also see it as an opportunity: it’ll mean I have to stay at home more and work. So, as Hugh Laurie told the CGI Mouse with Michael J Fox’s voice, ”every cloud has a silver lining”.
