Need. Alcohol.

Just spent a very nice weekend up in London visiting my friend's new flat. It's very very pretty, we had lots of lovely food and also watched Ratatouille and Pan's Labyrinth - both films are great fun, by the by, and well worth catching.

The drive back, however, was possibly one of the most terrifying I've had so far in that it was basically two hours of constantly worrying I was about to crash. Rain/mist/fog, whatever, the visibility was pants beyond description, which believe me is no fun when you have huge lorries speeding from lane to lane and junctions branching off every couple of miles. And the less said about the road works on the duel carriageway heading south the better *shudders*

Right now I need to put the wash on for work tomorrow, and then I'm going to have supper and a well earned pint.

Pan's Labyrinth is very good.

It is lovely :) Both me and the friend were enamoured of the ambiguous ending.

Uhm, think of it as handy practice for driving to and from ye olde Pointegasm!

Glad you got back in one physical piece, anyway. You'd be far less fun next month if you were squished into an even smaller size...

I'm hoping Pointgasm is lacking in the rain/mist/fog, but in any case - yes - I know I can most definitely cope with 3+ hours on the road, so hurrah!

Well, you know what they say: pure insanity only comes in small packages :)
