This is Fantastic!!

Well done Monarch!! I just stumbled across this infographic that they have created for the Queens Juba' on facebook.... some of the facts are staggering and it looks great!!

I don't like to moan but...

Where the hell has summer gone? I'm sure the last time I checked "British Summer Time" began WEEKS ago and all we've had is rain rain rain.

I am not impressed, Mr Sunshine, will you please get your hat on!?

Breathing/Atmen

This week there was a German language film on at my local cinema (how could I resist!?)...

Breathing is set in Vienna and is a deeply moving, slow paced film about a boy called Roman Kogler (Thomas Schubert) who is in a juvenile detention centre. He struggles to find a job that he feels comfortable in until he starts at an undertakers as an apprentice. Here he uses his job almost as a form of therapy, allowing him to reflect on the crime he committed in the first place.

All in all, its a heavy film and as you can imagine not a complete barrel of laughs, however there are some subtle moments of humour.

I'd highly recommend it!
