My meal on Tuesday bloody lovely
My next day off is Sunday, I’m back on nights Thursday, Fri and Saturday nights
Sunday afternoon my friend Colin and I are doing a gay afternoon
Lunch out and the Bette Davis movie Now Voyager at the Storyhouse….
I’ve told him we are drinking vodka martinis
I got myself all a bit fed up yesterday .
The good humour, meal out and theatre of Tuesday boosted me so much that I came down with a rather large bump yesterday
The day was boring and gray and wet
I mooched most of yesterday then met luckily Gorgeous Dave for a trip to the cinema
We had arranged to see a well reviewed art house horror movie Boys From County Hell at llandudno cineworld but they’re cancelled the showing due to “ lack of interest” ( obviously there is now a policy of cancelling poorly subscribed movies so that popular shite can be rescheduled instead ) so we went to see the awful Black Widow which is a dreadfully loud superhero thing. I knew it was a bad move because even my nephew Leo texted me that it was rubbish and he adores anything Marvel
Scarlett Johansson as Black Widow
Gorgeous Dave as Gorgeous Dave
It was nice to catch up with Dave though, who has agreed to accompany me to see Nigella Lawson later in the year
He giggled in the cinema when I said I would only go with a straight friend to see her in her one woman show…….she Is definitely one of his cougar crushes…every straight man I know fancies Nigella
Today I’m meeting with village leader Ian regarding a plan of action regarding the Church
Like I told u I’m back on nights tonight
Hey ho
I have no interest in the comic book movies so I understand the change coming as a disappointment. Now Voyager is wonderful. My daughter adores Nigella.
ReplyDeleteLove,
Janie
The only one that impressed me was Black Panther
DeleteI'd enjoy Nigella but you can have the scary movies - but you knew that about me.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous Dave is! What kind eyes and nice smile.
Hope all is tranquil tonight. Safe trip home!
Hugs!
I met Dave at Samaritans
DeleteWhen he walked in for the first time , I colleague almost forgot what she was doing with a caller and mouthed to me “ he’s bloody gorgeous “ hence the nickname
How apt!!
DeleteHugs!
I like Nigella and her lack of pretense in cooking.
ReplyDeleteShe does food sexually , don’t you think
DeleteTalk about ups and downs, swings and roundabouts! I am off to see The Courier tomorrow, favourite director, favourite actor and first venture to a cinema in almost two years. If National Theatre relays happen near you, I recommend Sondheim's Follies on September 2. And Jane Campion's film of Thomas Savage's The Power Of The Dog out next month. Amazing unforgettable book. Cannot recommend highly enough.
ReplyDeleteMy friend john in Sheffield goes weak at the knees about follies,
DeleteI’m not a lover of Sondheim
Well, I guess you could leave me the house
DeleteLeave me the flat
Leave me the Braques and Chagalls
And all that
You could leave me the stocks for sentiment's sake
And ninety percent of the money you make
And the rugs and the cooks
Darling, you keep the drugs
Angel, you keep the books
Honey, I'll take the grand
Sugar, you keep the spinet
And all of our friends and
Just wait a goddamn minute
See!
DeleteI don't go to cinemas any more, I find that very loud and tinny sound too much. I watch my movies at home (if at all).
ReplyDeleteI love little cinemas like they have at the Storyhouse
DeleteNo or few adverts , comfy seating, great quality film
Cracking
Tony and I would love to see Nigella, I'm sure she is his secret crush.. Blimey gorgeous Dave most definitely is.
ReplyDeleteI think the “ evening with” will be an interesting theatre experience
DeleteWhat a disappointment - a cancelled movie, then a bad one. Still, at least you got to spend some time with Gorgeous Dave, so not a total waste of time. Not long to wait until Sunday. I hope the nights shifts fly by. xx
ReplyDeleteYes he’s good company , though the cinema trip did preclude a long chat
DeleteYour meal looks delicious. Your friend look so lovely! That is not good news that the cinema is cancelling films which are unusual.
ReplyDeleteHope the church meeting goes well too.
I suspect since covid they are not going to run under subscribed movies..it is a chain ..cineworld …so will look at the biggest profit margins .
DeleteI prefer the small art house cinemas
"friends" I meant
ReplyDeleteYour meal looks amazing...you made a good choice...yours looks more amazing than Ruth's!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous Dave is definitely gorgeous; wish I was 30 years younger! x
Yes hers was somewhat less showy
DeleteBut yours is just right for you .
DeleteYou would think that one could use a good day as a launch pad,but it doesn't work like that unfortunately.
ReplyDeleteWell done on your outings though. Something to keep you going through night shifts x
Yes it sometimes just gets your adrenalin going
DeleteI have not been to a movie house ever since the pandemic sent us home. I was thinking that I'd go see Aretha Franklin's biopic that comes out this weekend, but with the Delta variant running rampant because of the unvaccinated here in the States, I'm kind of rethinking it.
ReplyDeleteI'd like to see Black Widow but I'll wait until they stream it for free. I know someone who has Disney+.
And Gorgeous Dave is gorge.
XOXO
Lol I will let him know you think so lol
DeleteIt is good to hear you out and having fun again, nice knees and all.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful knees David beautiful knees
DeleteChin up John - you sound to me to have an active social life, good friends including the four-footed ones,v arious fulfilling things like the plan for the church - onward and upward old thing - someone will come along to fill that gap. x
ReplyDeleteI’m fine pat, just sharing x
DeleteI liked Black Widow. It's rare we get an action film in which 98% of the cast is female.
ReplyDeleteGood point…..but all of those women were dressed in figure hugging , boob popping outfits
DeleteNigella needs to be sent on a Crocodile Dundee kind of trip.
ReplyDeleteI could see her wiping her bum on a palm leaf
DeleteOur cinemas are often empty because they've priced themselves out of reach for many. Cancelling showings that do not sell is policy here too. Poor shows seem to out number great shows. Your outdoor theater seemed superior to cinema.
ReplyDeleteIndeed and the art house cinemas in theatre Clwyd and the Storyhouse will still be my go tos
DeleteGorgeous Dave has a kind face. I remember Nigella Lawson from a cooking show that was on here in the states for a couple of seasons. I really liked her.
ReplyDeleteShe’s a flirt , I wonder if she loves the audience as much as the camera
DeleteI've never understood the appeal of Nigella Lawson, but then, I'm not straight. Maybe that's why.
ReplyDeleteHow weird that they cancelled the movie for "lack of interest." Did you prebook tickets? It's pretty rude for them to cancel if they knew even two people were coming!
I had about all the Marvel movies I could tolerate while visiting my brother and nieces a few weeks ago. I think I'm done with them for six months at least!
(The movies, I mean, not my brother and nieces. :) )
DeleteToo bad about the movie. I hope you find the arty one in a smaller theater.
ReplyDeleteIt's true, Gorgeous Dave is well named! Even this lesbian thinks so!
And Nigella? Yum.
Lol steady girl
DeleteI love Nigella too John-she is so funny-and the lovely Gorgeous Dave really does suit a helmet-perhaps he could do a turn at the Church event for donations in said outfit x
ReplyDeleteSteady
DeleteHave you seen Supernova?
ReplyDeleteAdie
No, I think it would be too painful

DeleteTh8s is not me John! I'm Adie from Amsterdam. What a horrible remark from Anonymous. I'm so sorry my question lead to it. I did see the film and for me it turned out to be painful too, be it for different reasons. Love Adie
DeleteActually Anonymous [not Adie] John did not fail in his relationship. His partner did. What a nasty c*nt you are.
DeleteNow that is a film I want to see Black Widow, I love watching Marvel Films, looks like you went for a good old Chinese the other night
ReplyDeleteI hope u enjoy it xx
DeleteMy view of Nigella Lawson is that she is the coke snorting, privileged daughter of a fat Tory chancellor who was given a big "leg up" into TV stardom having earlier enjoyed an expensive private education. Not for me.
ReplyDeleteNot a fan then?
DeleteThat’s what you call a plateful !!!! Nigella gets on my wick now …. She overplays the sexy so much …. I don’t know why she bothers to cook anything but then she needs something for the lip licking 🤣😂🤣 XXXX
ReplyDeleteSoft porn w/o the porn. :)
DeleteGorgeous Dave has a gift for being Gorgeous Dave.
ReplyDeleteFood looks SO good.
ReplyDeleteBest Movers I'd want to speak with you here. That's something I don't do! I enjoy reading articles that persuade people to believe. Also, many thanks for allowing me to leave a comment!
