Catching Up | Friday Night Movies Part 2

More dudes looking moody EXTRACTION Tyler Rake, a fearless black market mercenary embarks on the most deadly extraction of his career when he's enlisted to rescue the kidnapped son of an imprisoned international crime lord The Greater Hemsworth - and let's face it, he's the main reason I watched this - and the kid playing … Continue reading Catching Up | Friday Night Movies Part 2 →

Sunday Salon | 5 July

[Take Two - I wrote this post earlier and somehow managed to completely lose it, so here we go again!] This has been a really good reading week, I mean, really good. I managed to finish four, count them, FOUR novels; two were complete cover to cover reads, and the rest were left over from … Continue reading Sunday Salon | 5 July →

Catching Up | Friday Night Movies

During these strange times we've started trying to watch a film together once a week to make up for how much we miss visiting our local cinema and I thought I'd pull together a post I was originally going to call Big Dumb Movies but as (a) not all of them are the same scale … Continue reading Catching Up | Friday Night Movies →

Catching Up | Rocketman

A musical fantasy about the fantastical human story of Elton John's breakthrough years I have absolutely no idea why I waited so long to see this movie given that I've been a fan since Crocodile Rock back in the day, but I'm very glad that I eventually got to it because Rocketman is so much … Continue reading Catching Up | Rocketman →

Catching Up | Scary Movie Round-up

I've been dipping into scary movies lately, intending to have an afternoon set aside each week to work my way through my horror film collection. Of course, in these times, I find sticking to intentions of any sort really difficult, so you can work out how well that went. Anyway, here are my thoughts on … Continue reading Catching Up | Scary Movie Round-up →

Sometimes you just have to accept that you are not going to get around to clearing that backlog of book reviews even if you are sufficiently motivated to give it a try. What to do? That's what round-up posts are for. So here are the books that I read in April which may have been … Continue reading Read but not Reviewed | April Edition →

Sunday Salon | Books read in May so far

So here we are after a break of 3 weeks and I thought it might be fun to look at the books I've finished so far this month. It's been a fairly good month for reading but not a great one for blogging; what can I say? More mini-reviews are likely to follow, but let's … Continue reading Sunday Salon | Books read in May so far →

Movie Round-Up | Phase One

I had to go way back to find when I had last reviewed a movie (it was HERE if you're interested), and thought it was high time that I caught up though to be fair its been a fairly slow start on the movie watching front. So here we go! 1917 April 6th, 1917. As … Continue reading Movie Round-Up | Phase One →

Sunday Salon | 16 February

I'm currently writing this on Sunday afternoon as Storm Dennis has whipped its way across the UK. It is wet. I've not been reading quite as much this week as I've been a tad under the weather (pun not intended). I met up with my friend Silvery Dude for the first time this year and … Continue reading Sunday Salon | 16 February →
