a total flim weekend
Aeon Flux (Sky+)
Kept meaning to get it on DVD but then Sky Movies saved me £3 (Tescos at the moment). Enjoyed it - not the best film ever but good enough for a Saturday afternoon. One thing that niggled me, and this is very pedantic, but at one point in the film Aeon dropped a few 'things' after killing a guard. A while later she activated them by whistling and loads of things came rolling through the building - did they multiply in their hibernation state?
Godzilla v King Kong (Sky+)
Whil watching this Denise just laughed - she's not used to watching the great effects of these older films! Kong got hs arsed kicked until he made a great comeback thanks to 'the lightning'.
Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer (Cinema)
Good fun film though I thought Jessica Alba was more out of place as Susan Storm than ever before. After the disappointment of Spider-Man 3 it was nice to see a truly despicible bad guy in Dr Doom.
Currently watching Domino (DVD) which is pretty good so far, been wanting to see it for a while to see how Kiera Knightly handled a different role. £3 in Tescos - bargain.

Played Cars on the PS2 this afternoon - much fun, even Denise played...and beat me! My current status in story mode is having won the first race and am in a mini game looking for 20 postcards!?!?

Ordered a carpet for the lounge earlier in the wek - will be here in a couple of weeks. We are then going to get all the bedrooms carpeted, our bedroom decorated and are also getting quotes for the back garden to be designed and constructed - £5,000 is the only one we have had back so far - sod that! If we don't get any quites which are much much cheaper than that then I may have to do it mysef - eek!

Dad moved into his rented house for the 'trial seperation' this weekend - hopefully I'll go down to visit him in a couple of weekends time.

Feels odd posting this on both Livejournal and MySpace, thank goodness Facebook doesn't have a blog facility - if it does, don't tell me!
