Poy #12

A new week, a new Poy (though technically this is last weeks Poy... Oh, don't worry, you'll get your fill).

This week children, Poy juggles the Love. Clearly. Who saw that coming?

Day 68

March 8th, Thursday - B-Day approaches. Tomorrow I'll be 30. If you dont mind I'm going to go off somewhere and sob wholeheartedly...

*(I realise this is being updated and written retrospectively, so apologies for my use of present-tense... but sod it, it sounds better. Plus its my blog.)*

Poy #11

I know that, more than anything on this blog, you're all eagerly awaiting new Poy posts (PPs... ha...) - So sorry for recent delays but as you can see, I'm churning them out now (Not Poy, I can't lay claim to that wonder). So new Poy, here ya go! Oh yes.

Day 67

Day 66

March 6th, Tuesday -

Day 65

March 5th, Monday - Oh yes, its Killer 80s Robot Double Bill Madness Day!! (K80RDBM Day, for short. Catchy eh??) The PCC - which I don't frequent anywhere near as much as I should - have some brilliant double bills every Monday and we couldn't miss this one; especially considering that I'd only half watched Robocop before and never seen Terminator. And I'm meant to be a child of the 80s, I know, for shame. Self-flagellation imminent.

Well I have now seen them. And They. Are. Awesome.

Day 64

March 4th, Sunday - After popping Vicki back on a train west it was time to retire for the day. Main reason being my leg still feels bloody painful, especially after a few days of walking around on it. So I've taken up residence in the living room, foot up with some ice on it, in the hope that it can be fixed before my birthday next week (I'm gonna need it...)

It wasn't clear that there was Ice on my shin, so I'll added a handy label. There it is. Phew.

Film 86 - Once Upon a Time in America
So what better to watch when laid up injured with nowhere to go - how about a near 4 hour epic?? One of Rich's favourite films (he's been trying to get me to watch my copy for a LONG time) and now I can see why. Leone's film is a masterpiece - inspired performances (from De Niro and Woods in particular, of course) and a compelling narrative, though with a slightly odd ambiguity at the end. Actually makes 4 hours fly by.
