Not such a golden cinema ticket

Last week was very busy, with lots of playing, beaching, soldier games and drawing! On Friday most of us went to watch the new Tim Burton version of ‘Charlie and the Chocolate Factory’. Now, having grown up on the Gene Wilder ‘I’ve got a golden ticket! I’ve got a golden chance to make my way!’ musical version, I was hoping the usually fantastically dark Burton would have made a Gothic film to remember. And, yes, the film is good, you enjoy it whilst watching it, but once you leave the cinema you can’t help but feel you’ve just been watching ‘Edward Sissorhands and the Chocolate Factory’… |
Here I am again. The little people left on Sunday, and yesterday I was busy shopping for my younger brother’s birthday present in town (I left it foolishly late this year - as it is tomorrow, and I would usually have got several gifts by about February - but I got a, hopefully, really cool pressie anyway! We’ll see if he likes it tomorrow…
