jackOn saturday, I went to "Sonicdrift's" to watch Starwars 456. It's really cool to see nearly all of them together in order. I wasn't as wowed as I wish I were -- I've just seen snippets and homages so much the original lost punch -- but they really are very good. EmpSB really has a sense of despair at the end, and the others of triumph!
Unfortunately I was in a bit of a bad mood all day. I don't know if people noticed, but I'm sorry if I seemed a bit off, either too quiet, snippy or later on too domineering?
But it was nice to see everyone -- Becky had a lovely black summer dress -- and to drink mead, and to have good pasta bake -- I must try Homepride sauce on one of my bakes that has things in in addition to pasta :), I would have tomorrow, but see below.
On sunday, Tim, Rachel and Susan came round for gluten free dinner and firefly, and it was very nice to see all of them. On the whole I think it was a success, though I don't think I persuded Tim and Rachel to the virtues of either mead or Firefly. And the conversation is always a bit difficult to keep going between people who don't know each other well, I hope everyone was entertained.
I cooked a brocoli, chick pea, and mushroom bake. It was alright -- and everyone praised it[1] -- but not very inspiring. I risked using a sauce (Dolmio Lasagne) that I hadn't before, that might not have been most appropriate, and perhaps could have made the cheese topping chunkier. And I wasn't able to get any really good sidedishes, so approximated with an improvised salad and crisps.
[1] Thank you.
On the second sunday, ie. bank holiday monday, some Jehovas witnesses came round and we had a chat about how the scientific evidence rubishes evolution and carbon dating[1].
[1] I am not yet convinced.
