Things to do and things not to do...

Z braes now done (yay for 2 hour discussion seminars)
Next need to cut out and start on hose, so have a hand sewing project for carrying around. This would be started this evening, but tent door cutting has priority. Sigh... but wanna be distracted by new stuff.... Pre-existing stuff includes tablet weaving (I like the inkle loom setup for that), skirt, naalbinding, cut out cushions (need sewing and stuffing)...
At least now know how to use stem stitch as a fill stitch, from the AAF craft night last night. One more Viking decorative stitch down...

Went and saw Legend of Zorro at the film club last night. I was expecting popcorn and brainless, but there was an unexpected loading of ham and cheeeeeeeese. One good line, a lot of posing, and I don't think the director intended certain of those scenes to be laughed at. At least we didn't pay good money to see it. Better luck tommorrow night with Night Watch, and Pride and Prejudice on Sat.

Lunch now, before seminar.

I quite enjoyed Nightwatch, some bits were really cheesey, and some were just really wierd... It's probably better if you understand Russian..

Having just finished watching Night Watch, it was definitely an improvement on Zorro... but that is damning with faint praise. Nightwatch was good and the wierd quotient was fun. Very good style. Z liked the armour...:) Will be interesting to see whether the sequels live up to it. I would rate it above the Matrix...
