Being a part of Les Mis costuming for 2 seasons I know the stage show backwards, the film evokes far greater emotion than the show DD. Prior to seeing any movie or DVD for that matter I always refer to IMDB to read reviews - any movie with a score lower than 6.5 I refuse to watch, I bucked this trend with Les Mis as I was going no matter what and read reviews etc after viewing last night - wow what a read!!!! You could not imagine anyone more suited than Hugh Jackman after viewing DD  :)  :)

I am not a James Bond fan Amy. Never have been.
Have you watched most of them?

Well.... only the ones with Daniel Craig ;D So thats Casino Royale and the Quantum of Solace. I think the latest one is called Skyfall :)

Amy Les Mis is a must see.  I have seen the stage show several times an d I am looking forward to seeing the movie. 


Sounds like I'm going to have to watch it.... :-)) ;D

I have just been out for a coffee and met up with another forum member "blackwood".  I know it has been said many times before, but I am amazed at how lovely and friendly our forum members are, and how easy it is to just start up a conversation and chat about all sorts of things!  I had a really lovely time and thoroughly enjoyed meeting Gin.   :-*

Today I have been catching up on my own housework (told DH I was having a day off from cleaning - cooking - moving for BILs.) Glad I have done my own washing etc over the last hectic week, so did alot of ironing etc today. Sorted thru my old maternity clothes and chucked some I won't wear again, washed the rest, dried, ironed and in the cupboard. Made more buns. Tried to have a relaxing day but ended up spring cleaning...in this heat. DH has banished me to be for a rest now....another busy day tomorrow.  :)
:D

Had coffee with DD and did some shopping. ( she did I didn't). Came home, did a tiny bit of housework, put the washing out and nothing else. It is too jolly hot.
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.

I went for  a 50km bike ride this morning at 6 so I could beat the heat.  Baked some bread rolls sorted a few things out, then cleaned and serviced my bike.

It is 39.5 in Narrogin ATM, for about the 3rd day in a row.
