Antony Green has been doing this so long he’s an institution. Watching election coverage will be weird after he retires.

Three of my favourite things together on the badge. Cat, books, wine.

📺 Finished watching Zero Day (2025). ★★

A rectangular image with a review of the Netflix series Zero Day (Season 1). The show poster is on the left and the review on the right side. Across the bottom is a rating of Poor Okay Good Great with Okay selected. The review reads: How was this so average? Robert De Niro, a good support cast, cyber attack, conspiracy, all the elements to make a good thriller. Sadly, it was not. Tension never achieved, conspiracy exposed and wound up with barely a yawn.

I swear, the vet is even worse than doctors for running behind time. Now 25mins late and two other animals ahead of the cat. We will be in and out in 5mins as she just needs her gums checked after a dental clean last week.

🍿 Watched Paddington (2014) ★★★★

A rectangular image with a review of the movie Paddington. The show poster is on the left and the review on the right side. Across the bottom is a rating of Avoid Okay Good Great with Great selected. The review reads: Is this still as good as it was when it was released a decade ago? Absolutely. Is Paddington still the best bear? Absolutely. Is this still the best of the now three Paddington movies? Absolutely.

Lovely showery start to the morning, kept it cool with the light patter of rain masking noises from the outside world. Good for laying in bed a bit longer with a book.

🍺 Went for a walk along the river. Now sitting in the beer garden of the local enjoying a cold beer and writing some notes in my notebook. All of these are good for my mental health.

🍿 Watched Conclave (2024) ★★★★½

A rectangular image with a review of the movie Conclave (2024). The show poster is on the left and the review on the right side. Across the bottom is a rating of Avoid Okay Good Great! with Great! selected. The review reads: Thoroughly enjoyed this. If Ralph Fiennes doesn't get an Oscar it will be a sin. A dramatisation, it has glorious costumes as you'd expect and the feel of authenticity. The little twists, the politics in play, the ending. They all make for a brilliant movie.

Some days there’s a lot of loud sighing as I sit down.

🎥 Catching up on writing some Letterboxd reviews. I need to stay up to date or it becomes to much of a chore and then I write none.
