Watchmen — Series 1 Episode 9 — See How They Fly — A Review

17th November, 2020.


I can safely say I’m feeling a touch better.

I was at the GP’s, earlier: for various reasons: and?

I’ve got a course of antibiotics: they should have an effect.

If they don’t, I have to phone back in a fortnight.

Keep your fingers crossed.

That, aside?

I’m starting my review of the climactic episode of Watchmen, on the night I’ve seen it.

I’ve got some bedtime reading I want to do: a short story collection by Arthur Machen, if you must know*.

But … I want to take my time with review.

Watchmen — Series 1 Episode 8 — A God Walks Into Abar — A Review

10th November, 2020.


Right … it’s late — ish — on a Tuesday night.

And … ?   It’s late enough that going to bed with a James Bond novel — currently, I’m reading Diamonds Are Forever — is very appealing.

I wanted to get started on this post, though: to register a couple of points.

First?

My landlord was supposed to fix the main door of the building, today.

They’ve re-arranged it for the 20th!

Secondly?

I’ve seen the penultimate episode of Watchmen.

Things are hotting up!

Right … 

I’m now officially back: to tell you I’ve seen the penultimate episode of Watchmen.

But … ?   Do you remember me saying, only last night, that the door repair that had been scheduled yesterday, got rescheduled for the 20th?

It’s now been rescheduled for the 19th … 

I hate having to wait!

Watchmen — Series 1 Episode 7 — An Almost Religious Awe — A Review

3rd November, 2020.


Hmmm … 

I have to admit, it’s a Tuesday evening.

You’ve possibly worked that out, looking at the date at the start of this entry.

Frankly?

It’s an evening on the day I’ve rearranged an appointment, and — currently — trying to register for the NHS eConsult service: so I can try and talk to my GP.

That’s … 

Well, that could be a lot simpler, let’s put it that way.

It wants my provisional driving license, a photo, wants to scan my face, what’s my NHS number — if possible — and possibly wants to sing to me.

Don’t even mention the SatNav!


At any rate … ?

It’s a Tuesday: so, given I have time?   I’m making a start of a review: of the next episode of Watchmen, series one.

I’ll finish it, tomorrow.

4th November, 2020.

It’s another day, and another dollar.

Which seems appropriate: as, whilst I write, the BBC’s news channel is covering the US Presidential election.

Right now, Joe Biden has 227 of the required 270 electoral college votes: versus Trump’s 213.


Quite what will happen, I don’t know.

I hope Joe Biden wins: President Trump seems to be the least presidential President I can remember seeing.

But, at this rate … ?

We’ll probably only know for sure, by the end of the week!

~≈😶≈~

As a last thought … ?

If you haven’t read today’s Teaser?

I’m making goulash, tonight: after having to go back into town, today … to get peppers.

Which, if nothing else, means I have some more Nectar points on my loyalty card.

Hay ho!

At any rate, let’s move on, shall we?

Watchmen — Series 1 Episode 5 — Little Fear of Lightning — A Review

20th October, 2020.


Right … it’s a Tuesday night, and frankly … ?

I’m wanting my bed.

That’s either my age, depression … or a knee that’s feeling older than the rest of me!

Either way … ?   And with various bits of me aching … ?

I wanted to get it on record: that I’d seen another episode of  Watchmen.

And will tell you more, tomorrow … !
