A Great Weekend In Prospect



Now just let Liverpool go and spoil it. Tomorrow we are off to Ribchester to visit Mark and Nita from Workhouse Marketing. Mark and I are off to watch Blackburn Rovers play Everton whilst Marion and Nita hit the Ribchester high street. And then we have a meal in a decent restaurant booked and it's off to Anfield on Sunday when it will probably all go downhill. Looking forward to it.



You can't knock the productivity of the group of council workers in Hartlepool. Given the task of painting double yellows on a local street there was no time to get out of the vehicle and move this hedgehog so they simply painted over it. That's the spirit lads.



At last, this week's film reviews cover three new film releases with more than two star ratings so we can finally get back into our cinema going. It seems an eternity since we were going every week. The local Vue is showing "The Sorcerer's Apprentice" starring Nick Cage. His films are a bit hit and miss but they usually have a degree of entertainment. In addition there is "Salt" which has not been reviewed in the Guardian yet but I like thrillers and it may be worth a try although not so sure about Angelina Jolie. The Guardian's two four star tips are , of course, nowhere to be seen in the Vue listings. We can live in hope.



I said the other day that I was looking forward to Instanta entering The Guardian's Pick The Score again this season. But a quick look at their website and they don't seem to be running it this year. What a pity. Maybe the bloke who runs it is on holiday and they are a week late or maybe like all good things, it has come to an end.



Don't miss Stephen Mulhern's Magic Numbers tomorrow evening. A bit earlier this week it's on at 7.50pm on ITV1 and ITV1HD. Great show lined up. We are off to the broadcast next Saturday. Really looking forward to it.


The weather forecast looks pretty good for next weekend so perhaps we could dust off the tent and have a little camping trip. They're so easy to put up nowadays.
