Oh the disappointment of Bond

Nicky and I finally watched the new Bond last week. After all the hype from everyone else on this one I expected it to be excellent. As it was, I was glad I didn't go to the cinema to see it. Disappointing...

I was right in my opinion before watching it, Daniel Craig is just not Bond material. He is not sophisticated enough, and he just does not look right.

So the list stands as all time best = Connery, second best = Brosnan.

They made the wrong choice in Craig, and the film was not action packed enough.

There, I've said it.

Finally, I saw Spiderman 3

About a month after all the Newbury Lot went to see Spiderman 3, I finally got to go and see it with Nicky.

An expensive trip, but well worth it. The special effects were amazing, especially the Sand Man. However the film was flawed! They tried to fit too much in, and they included some really poor acting from the female news reported that should never have been in there.

In my opinion it should have been Sandman and the Goblin in this one, and maybe Rhino and Venom in a fourth film.

Still, I was so impressed by those effects, they looked real. Not long now we will not be able to tell the difference.

Its a little delayed, but I thought I'd say thanks

Thanks to Nicky for organising my surprise 30th birthday weekend, and thanks to everyone for travelling to spend the day with us. The most amazing thing was that Nicky kept it all secret, although I am not the most observant person... sneaky women :-)

It really meant a great deal to me to see everyone, especially as I had been complaining for weeks how I never saw my friends anymore, now we are all grown up with busy lives.

Cheers Everyone!
