OK, we have reached the end of the road with the objects, and to be honest, David’s comment was “please”. Many of you have heard this remark from him, it is one of his favorites. For instance, when Chita Rivera finished singing in The Mystery of Edwin Drood, that was David’s comment. She wasn’t great, which might give you an idea of the intent. Anyway, it was a solar powered lamp, and it was supposed to signify the future, which I get, but really? Please!
The book was great and we had a nice visit with Julia and Paul as well, as they set off for the next assignment in Marseilles. She actually made a comment about being posted to Addis Abbaba (sorry Bridget and Alek!), but they must have friends in high places. Another two years in France. The book is beginning to percolate as well.
As you know, the blog from last night was totally uneventful. I have been having trouble with my movie editing software, and had to call someone today to get this working, but I think you will enjoy and appreciate the effort. I took some video of David walking outside, and thought it was dreadfully dull, so wanted to make it something a little more interesting. Anyway, here is our walk in various cinematic styles – most of the credit goes to the music, and David wants me to let you know that he is going to work on his speed. To be honest, Chaplin is sped up and Fellini is slowed down.
Loved it!
