I stayed in bed and read this morning. This time I have gone for something a little unusual for me...."Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas" by Hunter S Thompson. I suppose it is good to vary your palette occasionally, and I find that modern Literature can leave me a little cold. However, old Hunter has been in the news a little lately with his latest film starring the lovely Mr Depp, and I thought it was time to give him a go. It is certainly an interesting read, and perhaps challenging. I found myself getting a little impatient at times, and wanting to find a character that I could form some sort of bond with. Early days, but not sure what to make of it all quite yet. We are all tired, and a little bit snappy in the evening, but that is understandable. The girls went out to watch the twilight film in the afternoon, and we stayed behind and prepared dinner and relaxed. So much to do, but the family needs a little down time as well. I watched some football, ate, fell asleep, and then ended up watching Quadrophenia. I realised that I had never seen the end, and was only aware of it through what I had been told. Time has not been kind on the film in my mind, with some of the dialogue and acting being at best cringe worthy. However, it was still watchable, and the ending provided some wonderful views.
