Sometimes you're just lucky. Like in the autumn, when I completetly missed that a cinema in the neighbouring city was screening the anniversary episode of Doctor Who, until a friend called me and said a colleague of hers had scored tickets and had one left and did I want it ( Read more... )

So, who is up for a picnic in the park on Towel Day? It's a normal Tuesday, so it will have to be in the late afternoon/evening, and pot luck.
