Yesterday, via the usual search for the forgotten info about which printer manufacturer's products were badged as Dell, I got the laptop talking to the laser printer and printing a test page. (I even found easier to use info than in the past.)

And thence to P&Pw/Z.

Much silly. Very costumes.

I'm a habitual watcher to the absolute end of the credits: partly because with a sibling who's an editor I like to appreciate all the effort put in by the entire crew; partly because I paid to see the whole movie; partly because the end credits can be as much a work of imagination and creativity as the opening credits or the film itself, and you never know what's been slotted in.... This time the remainder of the audience had hung around long enough to appreciate the inevitable resurgence of the evil, but they'd all left--bar Looby Loo and I--for the moment when the classical soundtrack was faded out for the spooky rewrite of "Ring-a-ring-a-roses" and then silence and a blank screen. Spooky.

Yesterday, Looby Loo sat in front (and when I say "in front" I do mean a scant three to four foot from the screen) of TV and videos, but did get to her swimming class, where they belatedly found a teacher. Very quiet. Has everyone gone away?


Today we did Howl's Moving Castle. I hadn't planned on going with LL since I wasn't sure she'd be interested. But she asked what was on and when told she said, "I know that. Seen the advert. I love it." in her I've-been-watching-too-much-TV staccato. So we went. Far scarier than Were-Rabbits with a more coherent plot to boot, except for the odd "I'm X from Y who's just been Z-ed..." clunking revelation. Fine cast of actors in the dubbed version too. And just beautiful to look at. So we both enjoyed this one.


Tomorrow, I think we have to find a museum or art gallery....


Booked tickets for Jetty Springer next year and super secret tickets for Beauty and the Beast on the last day of term. (Good thing LL doesn't read this too often.)


We may have builders arranged and bricks may be ordered--tricky bricks with odd point ends. Next door, meanwhile, have acquired a prop inside as well as the joists shoring things up outside. There's gonna be much rebuilding along here sometime.
