Hi all After all the upheavals last week I forgot to mention that last week was actually a very strong week in terms of high-ranking movies, and this week is, if anything, even better. It's possibly one of the strongest lineups we've had in years. We kick off with those Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri, which comes bearing four Golden Globes, five BAFTAs, and seven Oscar noms. Although The Shape of Water has been leading in terms of nominations, it's Billboards that has been getting the awards. It's joined on circuit with somewhat controversial fellow nominees Call Me by Your Name and Lady Bird, with the hand-painted homage to Van Gogh, Loving Vincent, bringing up the rear. For those who like their film entertainment a litte more rough and ready, we have Ethan Hawke delivering justice in 24 Hours to Live, while India supplies us with rom-coms and crime drama. On the preview side, there are previews on Saturday for Game Night, and previews Saturday and Sunday for Gnome Alone .... see the previews page and remember to book. Businesswise, Black Panther set all sorts of records Stateside last weekend, and they have high hopes for continued good performance this weekend.

It creates a hostile working environment. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cricket is a game in which there are 2 sides - one out on the field, and the other in. Each man in the side that is in goes out, and when he is out he comes in, then the next man goes out until he's out and then he comes in. When the side that is in is all out, the side that has been out goes in, and the side that was in goes out and tries to get the side that went in out. Sometimes there are men still in and not out when the side that is in is finally out. When both sides have been in and out, including those not out and no longer in - that is the end of the game. It should be clear now. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Went to the cemetery the other day and saw 4 men carrying a coffin, 3 hours later saw the same 4 men with the same coffin. Thought to myself, they've lost the plot ... -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I was driving to work this morning when a tow truck passed me. The driver was sobbing uncontrollably and looked very miserable. I thought to myself "that guy's heading for a breakdown". -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Took a girl home from the pub last night but I ended up falling asleep on the sofa... Must have drunk her drink by mistake! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Last night I got so drunk that when I got to the bottom of the stairs, I took off my shoes, coat, top, trousers and underwear. Then I crept upstairs very quietly, so as not to wake the kids or my other half. It was only when I got to the very top I realised I was still on the bus home. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The government has announced that for the new school curriculum, boys are going to study the workings of the female mind. The lessons, however, will be changed on an hourly basis. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A Irish recruit had only been a soldier for two weeks when he found himself up before the commanding officer for a minor offence. "You have a choice Paddy" said the CO "either 30 days confined to barracks peeling potatos or 20 days pay." Paddy thought for quite a while then said "I think I'll take the money."
