stuff wot I like
Mar. 19th, 2011 10:41 amI saw Nick Frost and Simon Pegg's new movie Paul yesterday. It was a lot better than the (unfunny) trailer led me to expect, and I recommend it.
I also enjoyed the Red Nose Day mini-episode of Doctor Who. So, does this episode mean ( spoilers )
Finally, I'm reading Tim Powers' novel Declare, which is about, basically, supernatural espionage during and after the Second World War. It's very much my kind of thing, although the book's getting somewhat bogged down in details at this point (about halfway through). It could have used a Britpick, too (hint: Oxford doesn't have semesters). Still, I'm enjoying it, which is more than I can say for all too many books I try to read these days.
