Home again...

We're home from Stoke after a lovely weekend. Now I must work on uploading some of the great photos to Flickr.

Grumble, grumble....

I hate cutting out counters. Why do I always leave it until the night before?

Again...

As the details of the new movie float around my head, i'm keen to go again to check out all those details which I no doubt missed the first time around. Hopefully I should be heading out again on Saturday at some point. I cannot wait.

Boldly Going...

That says it all, really. It's been a long wait for Star Trek and the thing that surprised me most was how much JJ and his team were willing to shake things up going forward. I don't want to get into a big review because others have done that much more capably than me. Suffice to say that I loved the movie and most everything about it. The first ten minutes or so of the film leading into the opening titles neatly sums up a lot of what I love about Star Trek, namely courage, self sacrifice, nobility, drama, adventure and heart. This movie had a lot of those qualities in spades and it's good to see the Big E doing her thing on the big screen again. I can't wait to see it again and again.
