One Blink

We were supposed to just have a quiet day today.  "A" has been tired recently, although she won't admit it.  So having a quiet day seemd a good idea.  Which makes it all the more mystifying where the day has gone!  Unfortunately I do suffer from rushes of blood to the head (hence off to Limerick in a weeks time, a ridiculous amount to end up paying for a rugby match, what with tickets, flight, car hire and hotel).  And I had a such a rush today, deciding suddenly that a trip to the cinema would be good.  At 1210 hrs we were sitting down in front of "Nanny McPhee and the Big Bang".  This then had to be followed by lunch out.  By the time we got home the day had almost gone.

Now, I don't recommend the "Nanny McPhee" film.  The first one was OK but this was more predictable than not.  And easily eclipsed by "Alice in Wonderland".  A burping crow cannot compete with a Mad Hatter.  A cameo appearenace by Bill Bailey did raise a smile, but was not enough to rescue the entire film.  "A" is becoming more discerning as well and didn't think much of it by the end.  Mind you, did see a trailer for "Despicable Me".  I don't really know what it is about, but the fact it has the music from Reservoir Dogs means I want to see it!
