The screening rooms


We went to The Screening Rooms last weekend in Cheltenham as a treat. We watched the artist again, but this time in the luxury of very spacious seats and with at seat service! The food was much better than that at your normal cinema as well. I think this may becoming a more regular treat!

Hopefully there will be a little crafty post for you soon - we are having people over for the super bowl and so a little decoration is required I think.

p.s. it is snowing here and has started to settle - anybody else got the snow? Hopefully it will settle over night and I  can have a play - ready for it to clear again for work on Monday.

Spouffle


These are what I would like in my belly RIGHT NOW, well actually if we are being honest then the picture below is more accurate - can't just have a few smarties! 


 However no smarties will be eaten, not right now anyway - maybe soon, maybe tomorrow, maybe I will come up with some recipe that I need them for so that I have to them!


Anyway back on topic - this is the Spouffle! It went very well and it tasted delicious (actually tasted better the next day cold!) If you have spied the bread that wasn't made by it but it was homemade and delicious (Manny made it!)


A while ago I talked about resolutions one of which was to go the cinema once a week. Since the post this has happened. I have seen Shame and The artist. I enjoyed Shame (more so after watching it and thinking back about how it all linked), but I don't think it is for everyone The artist was amazing and I would highly recommend it - however if you are the person that laughs at every movement on screen then consider going to a film with lots of dialogue and loud noises as it can be quite off putting to others around!! I would love to go and see it again!

Thats enough from me, nearly time for bed and back to work!

Films

One of my new years resolutions is to try and go to the cinema once a week. As a group of friends we do try and go every week and watch a film (we have the unlimited card) this year I didn't manage every week - but from what I can remember I did see nearly 30 films, which isn't bad!! Here is a list of last years films and I will try and update you each time I go with what I saw and a little bit about what I thought of it!

Horrible bosses
Captain America
Super 8
Cowboys and Aliens
Colombiana
Tinker, Tailor, solider spy
The Guard
Red State
Tintin
The awakening
In time
Hugo
Sherlock Holmes
Harry Potter - deathly hallows
The Hangover 2
The Mechanic

I started 2012 with a double bill and we saw Mission Impossible and then Girl with a dragon tattoo (with nandos in between!) Mission Impossible was exactly as to be expected but I enjoyed it. The girl with a dragon tattoo however was really good, and a film I would definitely like to see again.
