Avatar.

No rain but getting colder again.

This morning I finished cleaning the dining area. Cleaning the window meant not only dusting off the windowsill and all the treasures (mainly stones) on it but dealing with the minor but numerous patches of mildew around the window and the door. Before I could even start all that there was the small matter of some cracks along the top of the wall. Either caused by seagulls jumping up and down or more likely by the effect of strong winds on the flat roof. Luckily I have the correct stuff to fill in the gaps. A stitch in time and all that.

There was also one more cupboard built into the back of the kitchen units that needed to be emptied and wiped down.

All that had to be done before we headed off to the Arts Centre at the university to see the latest Avatar film. We got there in good time to visit the café where I redeemed the £1 voucher you get when you buy your parking ticket for some chocolate. Adding Minstrels to the pecans and cashew nuts I'd brought with me made a tasty snack to enjoy while watching the film. There was also time to look around the gift shop. Lots of lovely but oh so expensive things including ceramics made by people who exhibit at the craft fair.

The film itself was great escapist fun and I'm such a sucker for 3-d. The three and a half hours went by in a flash. The length of the film meant that by the time we got home I would have had to be out again in 10 minutes to get to choir. I decided postpone going to choir until next week as apart from the nuts I hadn't eaten since breakfast, the contents of the cupboard needed to be put back and I didn't want to be rushing and driving in the dark.  A shame but today was the only day they had an afternoon showing and we are not so keen on going out in the evenings.
