Update and other things.

So, it's been a while.. Actually about half a month. I have not been doing anything in particular, just been watching a lot of movies and played a ton of video games.

Here in Denmark, we have a streaming service called Viaplay. They have recently added the entire James Bond collection, so I decided to watch them all - in order. It was 4 days of non-stop Bond action, and I enjoyed myself. So much so, that I have taken an interest in some of the things that Bond likes to indulge in - namely champagne and opera.. Yes, you read that correctly. Opera. I listened to the Tosca soundtrack yesterday, and I liked it. I have also shifted holiday destinations. Instead of going to the US, I will be going to Italy. When? I don't know. It depends on when this Covid stuff will be over, and when I am allowed to travel again.

I am in regular contact with K, and she has gotten a place to live from June 1st, which is so good! I have offered to help out, so I am just waiting to get an OK from her.

Going back to movies for a swift second: I watched the new Chris Hemsworth film. I don't think it deserves all the hype it got. It's mediocre, at best! There is one scene that lasts 11 minutes and 30 seconds, and that is pretty well done. Other than that, it's lacking a bit of that "Yes, awesome" magic.

I need to make some food and see what else Netflix has to offer. If all else fails, I can always put on one of the films I have here.

Philipsen ~ I am glad you are making the most of lockdown. I like James Bond but don't know if I could watch one after the other. I like opera and have Madame Butterfly, and Tosca is beautiful, but I am not a buff. I am interested that you copied something you saw in the Movie. EG Holiday in Italy and Champagne. Lucky you !!
I can remember watching a film [I had read the book ] some years back called The Bridges of Madison County' with Clint Eastwood. At the time, I watched his lover on screen drink Tea with Lemon and no milk , she had it in the fridge as the weather was hot. I was taken with the film so much I decided to try tea without milk and a little slice of lemon and after that, I never looked back, I never take milk now it would make me sick. I saw same movie recently on T.V. and was embarrassed that I found it so great at the time, it had dated terribly. Have you noticed in Bond films they always show the watch on Bond's hand. I presume you will be buying a Rolex soon ? 'glad you are enjoying and making the most of lockdown.
Have fun.

I don't watch a lot of TV except for the news and a few favorite shows.

I am eating a lot.......laugh
