Well, there’s another bloggy-thon thing over and done with for another year.
Can’t believe I started doing this 17 years ago. Or is it 18? Not sure.
It takes time for these things to become an internet sensation, but I think we’re finally there, with Google Analytics showing viewing figures up in the tens.
The low tens.
Sometimes.
Thanks to the Joneses for keeping me company throughout and to those of you who took the time to comment.
Even the least observant of you will have noticed that I titled each post after a movie. Why?
You may well ask.
I don’t know, is the answer.
It started with that first post about my left foot. I struggled to come up with a title and just called it My Left Foot, realising almost immediately that it was also the title of a film.
Showing great imagination, I then did exactly the same for the rest of the month.
Anyway.
Same time, same channel, next year.
Will see you then next year then. It was great blogathan.On some days it was very entertaining, on another day more informative and sometime routine. But the movie names each month to align with the content.. that would have been hard work
Thanks Rajesh.
It was easier than you’d think, as there are just so many movies to choose from.
I didn’t notice the titles were films, which is hardly surprising as I have not heard of most of them! The last film I actually went to see was ” A United Kingdom” , before that it was Titanic. Thanks for the entertainment over breakfast this last month….see you next year then !
ps We saw A United Kingdom as it is a true story about Seretse Khama who was an African prince and he came to England in the 40s and met an English lady, who he married against the wishes of the British Government and his own family. My husband was in Botswana in early 60s helping with the first elections and met them. (VSO). I thought it would be a boring film, but it was most enjoyable.
Thanks Frances.
I think there are many films out there that we think are not our cup of tea, but if you actually sit and watch them you’ll find they’re pretty good.
I’ve noticed this before with Film4, when I’ve been too lazy to get up and find the remote.
Welcome To The Punch is a most excellent film. Mark Strong and Andrea Riseborough. What’s not to like? Can take or leave James McAvoy, but Mark and Andrea are excellent at their craft. As ever, it was a pleasure. I learned stuff from you, just as I usually do. Thank you.
Had not really heard of Mark Strong until I saw him in The Brothers Grimsby and became an immediate fan.
Well done, Masher. You’re an absolute sensation to everybody who read your work. Those who don’t are missing a treat. Spike would be proud of you.
