Well, actually, nobody says that in the film so that's ...
Far troo hot to sit around yesterday, so hopped off to local flea pit (actually rather nice new designer cinema to Pirates of the Carribean. Splendid fun. Much buckling of swash and a splendidnly hatstand performance from Johnny Depp. Excellent selection of British character actors on show as well. And Geffrey Rush chewing bits of furniture with some delight.
Spent the evening watching Any Given Sunday. Ok-ish but as usual for Stone a bit overblown and silly, and one really does tire of his 'everything was better before Vietnam' attitude.

What a fantastic weekend.
After a non-descript and frustrating week, it was nice to wind down from Thursday night onwards. My thanks to Az who sat online through the night thursday chatting. (Though I think we both paid for it Friday ) Thanks also to Lucy for a lovely lunch on Friday.
Friday night up the local (350 yards) to see top bloke and fine, fine bluesman Roy Mette. He's an Essex boy, but I know he plays all over the country - if you get the chance, go see him. He's a lot of fun and a great musician. Thank you to him for being the perfect wind-down.
Saturday to TG at Sahara Nights. What a fine venue (I wonder what it was before?). Thanks to the weather for holding off a little so that we could use the roof terrace to cool off from the dance floor. Thanks to Allen for making me feel better about my expanding leathers, as his had obviously shrunk in the wash, to Mark for being a social bulldozer and to Sally for thinking an above the knee dress was daring in the context of the TG. Thanks to Allen TG, Ian Schaeffer and The Eyeball Licker for laying down some banging tunes on the wheels of steel*. Now, when's the next one?
Chill out Sunday by ignoring the cricket and instead raising a small glass to the main man, Lance Armstrong. What an achievement!
And still ZZ Top to look forward to on Wednesday...
Now the only question is, do I have the finances and energy to do the Tribal City mini-festival on Friday night?
*Irony in the use of youthful slang to be interpreted as the reader desires.

If we were going for the record for inflating a hot air ballon by use of circular argument we'd be doing fine, wouldn't we?
