13th July, 2024: Harrison Ford.
Right, then: it’s officially Saturday.
And … ?
My innards feel a lot better: after whatever it was I ate has stopped having unwanted side effects.
What was it that caused the problems?
I don’t know!
But I did have a word with the shop: about the pasty I think caused the issues.
It’s the first complaint They’ve had about them.
Heigh-ho.
~≈¥≈~
I have to admit, over the past couple of evenings?
I’ve watched a couple of films: ones I’ve already seen and reviewed.
Thursday? I caught John Carpenter’s The Thing.
Last night? Neil Marshall’s Dog Soldiers.
It’s got to be said: both are still as watchable as they ever were.
Let’s move on, shall we?
Yesterday’s Teaser saw Mum* and Debbi† putting in their answers: with both scoring five out of five.

Good to know you are feeling better. It is normally very difficult to know where a stomach upset comes from, unless a group of people all eating at the same place and the same thing becomes ill. At home it is difficult, unless there are lots of people and nobody has eaten anything from outside. I remember we spent Christmas at my aunt and uncle's years back (my parents were visiting me in the UK and they invited us), and my mother got very unwell, and was very sick when we arrived home. I also felt unwell, but not as bad as her, and I hadn't eaten the turkey (which my cousin John had prepared for the first time, and my aunt wasn't sure it had cooked well enough), so we weren't sure what it might have been, as I had some vegetarian options and nobody else became sick. It probably was a bug, but my aunt told me that they'd thrown everything to the dustbin, just in case.
I almost forgot the teaser:
Q1) 1942
Q2) No
Q3) Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope
Q4) Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker
Q5) Raiders of the Lost Ark
Q6) 2023
Q7) Asa Butterfield
Q8) Ally McBeal
Q9) the Amish (I do like this movie a lot).
Q10) American Graffiti (Fabulous soundtrack)
The rest of the day went without other technical problems, although the guy I was meeting, the chef of an African restaurant who runs a cooperative, was almost an hour late, so yes, it was a day of delays and quite trying of my patience. I hope you have a nice Saturday. We've had some surprise rain, so the weather is a bit cool, although it won't last. I'm going for an evening walk, so I prefer it this way.
