Didn't always work out so well.

I will not usually watch war movies of any description. The exception being "Das Boot". I knew it was in a "staged" submarine, whereas other war films look too realistic. I also like "The Hunt for Red October" and "Crimson Tide". Are there any other good ones in submarines?

When I was in Goteborg, Sweden, there was a Maritime Museum. One of the exhibits was a submarine which you could explore. I found it fascinating.

You will have to imagine the umlaut over the o, in Goteborg, cos when I do the alt + thingy, it takes me to the top of the previous page.

I have curious dislike of films, or theatre for that matter.

"Das Boot" was a set film for my German 'AS' Level. These days I see it as a good advert for why we have the EU.

PS: I failed my German AS level. Quite dramatically in fact.

Slept well, but my get-up-and-go is still thinking about whether to stay in bed or not.

I have spent the morning writing and doing paperwork.

It is trying to be sunny here.

How big was the one slice though?

Footprint of a playing card and about 3/4 of an inch in thickness.

I generally prefer the book to the film.

Am not a big watcher of films - I have a few favourites within genres that I like, but generally prefer to wait until they come out on DVD and then turn up in Computer Exchange. Cinemas are not my idea of fun.

Lunch of avocado and sweet chilli sauce on wholemeal toast - plus the obligatory two of course...

It is now raining so hard that I can barely see the garden fence.

The Cat sneaked into our canteen and helped herself with Lewis sandwich. She left a bit though !

Lewis isn't very impressed with this.

What kind of sandwich was it?

It has stopped raining.

Blooming power cut just as I'm cooking tea. Fortunately it's cottage pie, and everything is on the gas hob, but it won't be going in the oven to brown off. All houses locally off too. First noticed as boiler was making ignition noises whilst on, the lights on the 'timer' were flickering, and the speakers on the desktop computer were crackling, then the lot went off. Spookey !
