Gone, eighteen years and Warhammer 40K

[lathany]

On Wednesday I got up at 6am (too early for me) and headed off to London to catch a train to Birmingham. I was off to see the Royal Centre for Defence Medicine in Birmingham, which meant Queen Elizabeth Hospital. It was a fairly interesting day, although somewhat on the long side, but the train journey up proved unexpectedly productive as I started planning the Warhammer 40K game I'm running at the end of August.

The rest of the week was fairly uneventful both at work and at home. I like tennis but I've not been watching, instead I've been checking on the results from time to time. The weather has become glorious - it seems an age since we had a really lovely sunny patch.

Last night, bateleur and I watched Gone (the 2012 release), courtesy of Lovefilms. It had received abominable reviews - which was unfair - but it wasn't brilliant either. On the plus side, the scenery was good and I like Amanda Seyfried (Lily from Veronica Mars). One the minus side, the plot wasn't so good, there was an unnecessary cat-in-a-cupboard moment and a rather stupid bit about how a car chase started.

Today we're planning to celebrate our eighteenth wedding anniversary (which is actually on Monday) and tomorrow we have verlaine and family over. So it'll be a pretty full weekend.
