Aka Friday 15th September 2017
Walked into town today for my weekly foodshop and I picked
up the latest issue of White Dwarf:
…I used to be a bit Games Workshop guy, I enjoyed the
modelling aspects (building and painting the models) and the sci-fi and fantasy
elements, and used to get White Dwarf monthly. But, I kinda drifted away and
other things took its place. But I couldn’t pass up the Warhammer 40k 30th
anniversary issue! Plus, building and painting models could be a more
productive use of my spare time (although not as useful as volunteering).
I also picked up the Mindhorn DVD:
…which isn’t a bad film, there are a couple of laugh out
loud moments, but it does feel very much like a film extension of a TV show, which
we used to get in the 70’s and early 80’s (Hello On The Buses, Are You Being
Served, etc.). And it has some of the same flaws, namely that they don’t take advantage
of being a film and not limited to being in a TV studio and the story kinda
peters out towards the end and leaves you feeling like maybe they had run out
of money/film stock and couldn’t film the reminding ten minutes of story. It's worth watching, but probably not worth buying to watch.
And here's today's crossword:
...and it went better than yesterdays, only needed help with 39% of the clues :)
