Weather report

Never will I understand this Pom weather.
Today it is bright sunshine, currently 8, but rising to 12, yesterday it got as high as 15.
I keep reminding myself that February is the worst month of the year weather wise, but my eternal optimism makes me almost want to put the coats back up in the loft.
Not that I am going to.
The Hubby is still laughing about the winter clothes being packed away in April last year.
There are three coats still in the loft, serious winter weight coats that we have not needed.
Yet.

Before this blog ends up as a fecking weather report, here is something more interesting.

Yesterday we watched a movie called Tortoise in Love.
Made in a village called Kingston Bagpuize (yes, really) 
by Guy Browning.
He happens to live in this charmingly named village.
They made the movie using over 600 residents , 
raised most of the money themselves, shot it in 6 
days.
All the catering, hair, make up etc etc was done 
by the locals, 
out of towners stayed in homes in the village.
Absolutely charming.
Of course , the acting is..um...? Interesting.
But quite delightful.

The movie premiered in Leicester square, and they took 
the whole village there in coaches.
How very lovely.
