Film vs tv shows

Image
Every year I get a new diary/calendar and at the back I like to write down films/shows/books I watched and read or audiobook.  And last year I noticed that I watched a lot more shows rather than films. Back in the day when I had a memberships  card to the Cineworld I watch a lot and very different films… now films feel like an effort. And if the end what if you don’t like it? And you have wasted a perfectly good evening. And with series you can (well most of us) dip in and out as we please and even abandon them all together. I only finished true blood recently same with lost girl, they weren’t available on streaming services I had and I lost interest for a bit too… but I gave up on game of thrones and Big Bang theory all together.  Well not only that but tv shows quality is so good! Take Witcher for example? Great. I vaguely remember polish version form 80-90s it was not that this good! Or wheel of time which I have started but don’t feel the urge to continue watching…. B...

And the internet goes mad

So new doctor who is Jodie Whittaker and the internet went mad... a woman doctor what?! I enjoyed the new Doctor and the Christmas specials and all the fun and sometimes scary and unexpected twists and turns. And frankly I didn't think much about who is going to be a new doctor. Until I was listening to Scummy Mummies podcast and when Helen Thorn's daughter said wouldn't it be nice if next doctor would be a girl... like a little light bulb went off in my head, yeah really why can't it be a woman.   12th doctor was so much fun, thank you Peter Capaldi ! And the new companion Pearl Mackie 's character Bill was gay. Honestly the episode with Romans and discussion about sexuality made me chuckle and it was just so as a matter to fact! Also very sad to see her leave the show. I loved Bill... The show is about kindness, bravery and love. Doctor is always trying to help everyone!  But all this not only just a great show it also shows kids that it's all...

Marvel

So the best way to celebrate your forth wedding anniversary is to do a 10K race, go to the cinema and go to 5 guys for a burger... Well you know all about the race  now I would like to tell about my second favourite instalment of Marvel Universe.  In case you are wondering the Guardians of the Galaxy is my favourite Marvel film! And I have seen it like 100 times!  So we after leaving the little man with Gramy we headed out to see Ant Man. All I knew is that Edgar Wright refused to direct it due to issues with Marvel but still did the story and such.. Oh and of course that Ant Man super power is to get really small. Well I got to say it was really cool and so much fun! We get to see the back story the new story. We got to see the no offence to anyone less important Avenger and we saw Agent Carter. Speaking of a lovely lovely Peggy Carter ( Hayley Atwell ) she has her own show Agent Carter. It's awesome, she's such a badass!! Big fan right now. Oh and i...

I have a confession to make...

Image
well actually few of these... I love love the property programs and am a fan of Kirstie Allsopp .  Think she is so awesome! She is very inspiring, didn't she made entire nation craft in last few years? But also she is funny, intelligent  and feminist. I also love George... You know the restoration man George. We once watched tons of his other programme. Think about 4 or 5 hours....mad! Then I adore vintage shopping... I don't like the mass produce things, but I cannot afford anything else really so looking for one of the kind vintage pieces are the solution. If I could live in Beyond Retro in London I so would! Besides vintage shoes fit my very small feet better!  And my other confession is that I am a moonie. Apparently it is a thing. That's what you would call Sailor Moon fans. I have been one for years really.... Since I have been little. Now we are re watching it with my little man, well he actually doesn't care much. ...

Spring is in the air!

Dont you just wish that everyday was a day off... and a sunny day off. Wish also that our boiler worked and it was warm, but hey one cannot have everything.  Luckily we live next to parks.... Walking around and not thinking about work, stress of it all just enjoying is a truly rare occasion. Dont think I like being a grown up but what are you going to do:)  We made friends with some dogs, I almost climbed over the wasp nest, thank you for sings wood people! I loved outside today.  Now we are cozy at home watching some Jonathan Creek and eating a home-made chilli with nachos.  Jonathan Creek is amazing, watch it now if you haven't seen it! Netflix is good for it.  And chilli was a joint effort but nachos are shop bought!
