Date Night Delay

Sorry I didn't post yesterday. I kept meaning to do it through out the day but one thing led to another which led to another which led to me completely forgetting to post and then it was date night so we left the house at 6pm and came home at pretty much midnight.

I love date nights with my husband, I think everyone with a partner should set aside a night during the week where they do nothing but spend quality time with one another; where the mobile phones stay in the pockets and the computer games stay off the TV - it works for us.

At the moment our date nights are a 'little' predictable as spare money is in short supply BUT we do have Cineworld passes, means you can go to the cinema as often as you want a month for completely free - even the 3D films are free and with the cinema costing £8-£10 in places spending £15.90 a month seems completely worth it. So, anyway, our date nights sometimes consist of us going to dinner, last night we nearly went to Nando's but opted for cheaper and just as good KFC and then went to the cinema to see Flight.

Out in America before here

Man, is that an amazing film or what. Luckily, a few weeks or so ago, but definitely after Christmas, I had the pleasure of watching The Graham Norton Show on a Friday night. I don't usually like him but some of the actors and actresses he gets on that show are unreal - take for example Robert Downey Jr who is a REGULAR... and I mean regular on the sofa. He once had Will Smith - anyway I digress. So, I happened upon the show and Denzel Washington was on it promoting his new film Flight, and I LOVE Denzel Washington, every single film I have seen with him in has been absolutely awesome - Unstoppable and Deja Vu just to name two. And he showed the trailer for Flight on The Graham Norton Show and I knew I had to go and see it...

...No spoilers here but HE FLIES A PLANE UPSIDE DOWN TO STOP IT FROM CRASHING and saves 96 out of 102 people on board - I mean woah... craziness and when you're watching the film it's like you're really there as it is happening, brilliant. But the film isn't just about that, it's about something else too, something more powerful and stronger than Denzel Washington flying a plane upside down - but I can't explain any more than that otherwise it spoils the story, needless to say it is one I shall be watching again.

Just to add, Flight is a 15 because of swearing, small amounts of nudity and addictive substances - however the film would have not been the same without the swearing or addictive substances - could have done without the nudity at the beginning though - since it doesn't appear afterwards.

Also, kudos to Costa in the Metro Centre in The Village (or between blue and green mall I can never tell) as I went to sit down with my hot chocolate last night my hand holding the tray got a piece of glass stuck in it, (small piece) and the pinprick cut wouldn't stop bleeding, the glass piece was small but pretty long and I had scraped it into my finger sideways. I moved my tray and found another small piece so I put them on the saucer and took them to the barista and she was very very apologetic and gave me my money back for my drink. Super service
