Pakira Road

Haven't seen R for a while and she's doing a Jenny Craig, with some success. We decide to seethe new  release  movie called 'Turner' of the eponymous English artist but it's booked out, so instead we gamble on Russell Crowe's attempt at a Gallipoli soap opera and it just doesn't quite make it. Called 'The Water Diviner', a totally misleading title, it a story of three lost Aussie soldiers presumed dead in Gallipoli but one is found still alive. It is hackneyed and poorly cut with Russell Crowe in the lead as director, writer and star. Certainly no more than two stars!

Home for a quiet night in front of the tellie, a rare treat for me, happily with a cat on my lap. Tomorrow I intend to meet up with a couple more friends if they are not away on holidays. Weather has been superb and the only sad point, and not really sad, was that news of the passing of Jean Watson on Friday in Wellington, the day after our very nice Christmas lunch. Happily she had just visited her son in the Wairarapa and was returning home on the train when she had a fatal seizure. May she rest in peace!
