The outcome is fantastic although I didn't realise it at the time. I left the cinema feeling just a little underwhelmed but the more I thought about it (and talked about it), the more I realised just how good it was.
It is billed as a document of our time and that's exactly what it is to a point but I think the over riding thing is that despite the age we live in, despite where we are geographically we all have the same hopes, fears and ambitions.
In contrast Clare and I spent the evening watching The Mechanic starring Jason Statham. An easy enough film to watch. Statham plays an assassin who, having killed his friend and mentor, takes on his mentor's son who has his mind set on avenging his father's death.
Sunday and as we had no plans we woke up and decided we would go to a car boot sale. We arrived early and decided we would have a wander around Elmdon Park. I'd not been there for years and it was nice to see how it had changed since I used to go there as a child.
We also found a new bit. The Walled Garden is an old orchard that has been left overgrown as is owned by The Wildlife Trust.
The car boot sale wasn't up to much so we headed back to the park before meeting up with my parents and heading for something to eat at The Harvester in Shirley.
It was fairly busy but we didn't have to wait long for our food. We spent a nice afternoon in there before we headed home.
