    Sleep well, I did enjoy the film tbh, much preferred it to the stage show, Ann hathaway can't sing for toffee... But her performance in I dream a dream was astounding, I think the fact that they can't sing actually makes the film better in some ways, I would love to have seen what baz luhrmann would've done with the film, I could see the director getting some baz moments in the film :)

    I would recommend it and believe me I am rather critical when it comes to films ... Let us know what you think :)
  • Hi Natty
    Went to see Les Mis in IMAX last friday - loved it. Never seen the stage show (its on my list of ones I want to see!)
    Well worth a cinema visit

    Thank you Palema:) I know of people who have seen the film 3 times or more, and to see it on the big screen will be ace.

    I was thinking of letting the hoards of cinema goers settle down, as without doubt I will cry (I cry at everything from Toy Story to when Bouncer died in Neighbours:o) I wish we had an IMAX.....

    ETA - there IS an IMAX where I stay. I'm like a country bumpkin at times, doh!
    February13 - £74990 (or thereabouts)
    MND - Let's go for 2020 'cos it's got a nice ring to it:D

    Definately take tissues!
    The whole place was sobbing. We've only had an IMAX just over a year. It costs me a little bit more with my cinema card BUT it was so so worth it!

    Day 11 of abstinence
    16 days until pay day

    Today was challenging at work and I was very, very, very close to stuffing my gob at the frustration of it all, however I have found that if I grab my muffin lard when feeling like this, I am able to stop myself (just).

    Hope no one else had a terrible Tuesday:cool:

    Hi Natty

    Maybe it was one of those days, 2nd week back after the holidays and all that stuff - I was dying to get out of work today and I have a great job and boss. I'm very impressed with the 11 days of abstinence - I've managed two so far (and today is the second!) - I have to try and stick to it, I too have a few (well actually more than a few) lbs to lose!!

    Never mind tomorrow is hump day and then it's almost the weekend.

    Hi AG:)

    Like you, I genuinely love my job and have a great boss - so feel very fortunate in that respect. Very glad it's humpday tomorrow, although I do have a CPD twilight to attend which I think will be really interesting.

    Snow amounted to nothing today, but I still wore my snow boots anyway:D (did change to heels on arrival otherwise , my colleagues would have slagged me mercilessly:p)

    Thank goodness someone else is doing the same! We can go through the withdrawal shakes together;)

    No snow all the way down here in the deep South - flipping cold though although the sun has been out today so it has been a good day. I hope it stays away tbh, I hate driving in the snow/ice! Big woos I know!
