That’s me there, repairing my curtains.
One day, a while back now, I came back to find them on the floor, blown off their rails by what I guess must have been the wind.
Today, a while later, I thought it a good time to set about putting them back up. This wasn’t as easy as I’d anticipated. It seems as though my curtains had very different hooks to everyone else’s – complicated hooks. Actually, the wrong hooks. Probably explains why they came off…
Anyway, I’ve done my best at putting them back up, I hope they stay there. I just won’t touch them for a while.
Otherwise, we’ve all just come back from seeing the new Star Trek film. It’s a reinvention of the franchise, starting from the very point where Kirk and Spock meet. It also kicks ass.
Somehow, with a stroke of genius, they’ve kept the original characters the same, they’ve even kept the feel of the original show but they’ve removed the lameness. The nerdyness. It’s previous inaccessibility has gone. You really, really, want to see this now, even if you hate (hated) Star Trek. In fact, the haters should be the first to go; I hope the next arrives soon.
