Nearly march

Hello. 

Important updates...

1. I saw a preview of Watchmen this week. It is ace. I don't think I took a breath throughout the whole film. It's not my normal type of film though, and very gory, which I don't cope well with. Plus, I should be thinking a bit harder about how to watch it as a Christian, especially how it may glamourise violence. However, I'm the kind of person that thinks Poirot is dangerous television because it makes light of murder, so I probably shouldn't lead that debate. 

But, Watchmen is very clever with how it weaves lots of issues - politics, who has the right to exercise power, who watches the government, absolute morality, human nature - plus loads more I was too scared to pick up upon. I'm having to watch lots of Masterchef to help me go to sleep, but that's ok.  It was worth it. 

2. People are trying to persuade me to use Twitter. I really don't think I'm interesting enough to bother. Plus I'm a bit bored of social media. But it would be worth it for Stephen Fry. 

What else? Beautiful stop motion video here, a great exhibition I went to last week here - wish I was ginger enough to be in it. Plus thank you to all of those who surprisingly read this and, hence the last post bought me some amazing books for my birthday. I feel very spoilt.
