Culture of the week

Went to see Harry Potter and the Half-blood Prince. Enjoyed the film but didn't enjoy the running commentary from the couple sitting next to me. I had to ask them to stop talking and got a filthy look for my trouble. Waited until they had exited before leaving in case they attacked me on the way out. (They didn't).

After attending a "Mythodrama" CPD event, have an urge to see "The Tempest". Will ask Bex to borrow it from the library.

Made a second trip to Westfield - didn't enjoy it as much as the first time. Had a fairly basic burger which was enhanced by the waitress knocking an entire bottle of coke over a small child at the next table (he got a free ice cream as compensation).

Bought a hat for a wedding I am going to on Saturday, but otherwise it was pretty much a non-event. Will have to change the trim on the hat from red to turquoise. Hope it looks ok.

Probably won't go again. It was a murderously long hot DLR/tube journey there, and another murderously long hot bus journey home.



Was surprised by the inclusion of XKCD as a question on University Challenge. That was one I could definitely answer!
