The last dark and stormy (for now)

No, not that sort of dark and stormy 


I had my blood tests this morning and as long as they are OK I’ll get my third lot of swamp juice (chemo) tomorrow.  After the blood test I went to my sister's for breakfast and then came home and ironed while watching two films on TV that were truly, truly dreadful.  So not a lot to report today.  Right now I’m enjoying a dark and stormy (dark rum and ginger beer).  This’ll be the last one for a while as I completely go off alcohol for a week or two after chemo – oh the injustice! 

As I have very little to say for myself today I thought I’d end with links to two v short films on YouTube. One about the trials of Henri the cat and then a sequel.  They made me laugh – especially the sequel (watch it until the end for the best bit).  Henri is a much more sophisticated cat than Cyril.

  1. I worry for you !!
    I watched both of them all the way to the end on the strength of your say so but can't for the life of me figure out how you managed to watch nearly 5 minutes of that. If I had stumbled on that video by accident I would've lasted about 20 seconds before jumping through the nearest window in search of relief!
    I'll lend you my all time fave film to watch - Paper Moon, now there's a film worth watching...

    1. And to think I thought you were sophisticated! We won't be inviting you round for one of our regular French cinema evenings when we sit around glumly, drinking absinthe and discussing the meaning of trumps oops I mean life.

  2. I'm slightly worried by the other comment because I really like them too. You're right, the sequel is definitely funnier!
