Something rare happened yesterday: Mrs M and I went to the pictures.

To see a film.

Together.

With no kids.

Yes, with both the horrors at a birthday party we had a rare few hours to ourselves.  So, what to do with this short, but precious time?

Well, I was up for playing doctors & nurses, but Mrs M wasn’t having any of that: she wanted to go out. Shopping, preferably.

Shopping?  Not my cup of tea.  And so we compromised and went to the pictures instead.

But, what to see? The latest Die Hard film was obviously favoured popcorn fodder, but I’d heard and read so many bad reviews that I decided against it, instead opting for Denzil Washington’s latest: Flight.

And a thoroughly good choice it was too!

Afterwards, we still had just about enough time left to grab something to eat, and so we nipped into the nearest Weatherspoons’ and quickly stuffed ham, egg and chips down our necks, before racing back to pick the kids up.

Jeez, but I don’t ‘arf know how to show a girl a good time!

    Glad you had some time to yourselves. OH and I went to see ‘Quartet’ recently, that was rather good.

    Saw Flight a couple of weeks ago. Quite a good film, though a predictable ending. Denzil knows how to do a good job. I saw A Good Day To Die Hard on Thursday. It’s a tidy entry in the Die Hard canon, better than a couple of the previous films. Also on Thursday I saw Beautiful Creatures, a film so dire that I would have walked out after 20 minutes, had I not been paid to watch it.

    Congratulationaries to you and Mrs Masher on picturing together.
