This weekend was the my home towns festival. And right on the moment the procession had started the rain came down hard. They did a good job at trying to keep smiling and positive, but that’s the UK weather for you….

Bank Holiday here in the UK, so a long weekend and we thought we would have a movie night. As my youngest suggested it, it was his choice, and after picking The Kid Who Would Be King, he changed his mind at the last minute to Wreck It Ralph 2 – Ralph Breaks the Internet.

Movie night tonight. And this time it’s Fantastic Beasts-The Crimes Of Grindelwald. I’m not really a fan of the Harry Potter films, or should I say I haven’t watched them all, and everytime I ask the kids if they want to watch one it’s always no. So I don’t catch them. We saw the first Fantastic Beasts and thought it…
