The weekend as usual was relatively busy for me. Friday night was spent buying my first set of beers for nearly six weeks (possibly more), I then proceeded to drink as many of those beers as I could, got through four of eight before doing the old floppy-sleepy head maneuvre on the settee for half an hour or so. I somehow scrambled to bed.
Got up bright and bushytailed on Saturday morning, then went back to sleep until I was awoken by my lodger at 10am, knowing that I had to get the cat to the vets by quarter-past, well perhaps he did, perhaps he didn't. In any case, headed to the vets, cat in box, got there 10 minutes late, but they didn't mind.
Gave Sassy the once-over and gave me the anti-flea stuff, some Frontline Squeeze-It-On-Their-Skin stuff, and a spray-your-upholstry stuff, and returned home.
Sat around for a while, or did I go into town? Can't remember, possibly I did, with Celt Islam and Deadly Kristen, and we went to numerous charity shops (we're suckers for bargains), and eventually returned home again.
Celt Islam promised to help with the de-fleaing but after an hour of sitting around awaiting his return from upstairs I wandered upstairs to discover that he and Kristen had both fallen asleep! Musicians are lazy I tell ye. :p
Gave Jose a call and discovered that he and his brother had already moved one long-wheel-base extra-height Ford Transit van load to their new property in Arkham (or is it Armley?). Went over in my super-fast speedy sportsy car to his old property and was led to the new property until we arrived and I parked in the driveway.
The new property was located in a particularly busy part of residential, but fireworks to the value of around £135 (Sale Price £85!) were purchased and exploded in a 10-metre garden even though the fireworks stipulated a 25-metre clearance. But what does that matter in a mini-warzone?
Saw Batman Begins and Sin City that night too, very good. Especially both of them.

Sin-City.
Sin-City.
Oh yes there we are. Hated it, I think I hated it, then I was compelled to revisit the land of Sin City with the brain chemistry of a new day. 'Watched the entire thing - a rarity for the attention challenged. no longer did I hate it.
Excepting the yawn-dome that is Jason Statham, Revolver is also worth a mention in this completely irrelevant conjecture. Try you must to make sense of this one! Lifting a quote from some other ‘anyone who claims to fully understand this confusion is a bold faced liar.’ Entertaining certainly. Even though most reviews said avoid. All I needed was something entertaining, and perhaps enough to spark neural activity, especially these days.

I can understand why someone might not like Sin City at first, as it has a lot of layers, is very different visually, and the storytelling is completely whacked out. It's a breath of fresh air from Hollywood IMO.
Jason Stratham, Jason Stratham, I know the bloke I think, baldy or shaved head, always plays a crap London gangster. Yeah, I have tended to avoid anything by Guy Ritchie after he got hitched to Madonna. His heart sold him out, for shame.
But then maybe Revolver is good. I dunno. I suppose I'll see it at some point.
