And finally… have some ‘stuff’ going on. Some of it me, some of it a loved one. Will need a while to sort it out in my head, and it will be a couple of weeks before we talk about it. We will get through it, and be stronger and wiser for it, but I wish it didn’t have to happen like this.

Xmas shopping. Jeepers. Watched Hannibal, and The Beach. Hannibal was OK… was a more ‘traditional’ thriller, but again Hopkins excels as Lecter. Julianne Moore was good, but didn’t bring the same vulnerable side of Starling into play much. The Beach was… OK… but so far detached from the book that I can understand why a lot of people didn’t like it. I think it was a bit soft, and too ‘Hollywood’. The love interest wasn’t required as the book isn’t about that at all, and Mister Duck was sadly absent from most of the film. Had potential, failed to deliver. That aside a quiet weekend, honed my skills further on Gran Turismo A-Spec in preparation for a matchup. The Big Chuffer actually thinks he will beat me!! Muwhahahahaha..

Quiet week so far. Christening on Sunday, followed bad news on Saturday. A friend’s brother was killed. Funeral on Friday. Seems to have tainted my week so far. Quiet and detached at best.
