Most memberts of the Room end up gaining a bit of a thing for tea... I really should hang a shade on that lamp, actually.

Well, it was raining outside...

Maybe when the weather is a bit nicer

Oh, thanks for letting me know!
I think that's Basil's special talent.

Today I went to a matinee production of the new UK tour of We Will Rock You. Of course, I brought little Gazza plush along with me. He was made for me by a friend because she knows I love the show.

It was a great show! Not as much energy as you'd ex.pect considering three separate school groups were present, but still a lot of fun.

It was a lot of fun. There's a US tour currently as well, and I believe more locations coming worldwide next year.

It was a lot of fun. Very loud, but in the best way.

"Whatever happens..."
"We'll see it through, together."
Taken before I saw The Rise of Skywalker, which I have seen. It's... certainly a lot of movie. I have thoughts. I will not spoil for anyone who does not want it. But yeah.

I read all the plot "spoilers" and synopses that I could find online.
So... yeah.

I need to catch up on a few movies. No theatre here means waiting for DVDs through the library. I probably need to backtrack with one or 2 and then watch the newer ones.
No spoilers for me please, but, did it end... well...?

... That would depend entirely on what you wanted from an ending. I wasn't surprised by the ending, I could see it coming. I wasn't necessarily happy with it, but I can admit it was a visually nice shot.

Basil found our little musical Christmas tree - inherited from my grandparents - and wanted to play with it.

Awww, that's adorable! The tree is perfect size for him!
We have some vintage Christmas tree decorations, but we don't use them, because they're really fragile, so they're safely packed, and we look at them every Christmas, but never take them out. Luckily, these old designs seem to be "in" for this season, so I got two new ones.

Another train for Basil!
Basil: The Dog Who Loved Trains sounds like a title for an entertaining children's movie.

Edit Reason: Words matter

That’s really cute - which tune does it play?
We went to see Star Wars last night - we both (mostly) enjoyed it. There was some stuff that I thought was unnecessary but that can be said about pretty much any of them.
We did wonder what changes there would have been if Carrie Fisher hadn’t passed away prior to the filming.

It's the perfect size if he's sitting down - he'd be taller than it standing.
I don't really get the whole process of buying new decorations each year. It's nice that you have these older ones.

... That is very true. I am going to plot a story for that.

... You know I genuinely can't remember? I will wind it up and check.
Yeah, there's a lot of nostalgia bait and bits that feel like they're trying to 'fix' stuff that... when it got down to it, didn't need fixed. There's some bits that I was sitting going "well, that clearly would have been Leia," but I'm not sure what else - I did like what they managed to do with her though.

Olivia decided she wanted to put on something that was a little more seasonal.
