It begins...

Deep breath. Sound the advance! By the left, Quick March!.

I go now to make changes to the layout of The Tower in an attempt to a) tidy it somewhat and b) introduce a measure of Furtleproofing to the breakables.

I'm not sure this is possible, but I must give it a try; the results of many years' of geeky collecting are suddenly on the endangered list and few are replaceable. I have a plan which involves moving some furniture about. Doubtless the new arrangement will provide new and exciting possibilities for cold cast porcelain catastrophe, but one must make the effort. I think that bounceable plastic bric-a-brac will find its way to the fore, with the more fragile elements pushed back into the relative gloom.

The next stage, of course, will be to dust (shudder) and maybe hoover.

This may take some time....

X Men: Last Stand

I think I concur with the people who have seen the film already; not a bad film, just not as good as the first two.

Comparatively little character development, some nice action set pieces. I think I should have enjoyed it more had I gone on 'Orange Wednesday' and paid half price, but I don't feel ripped off or as if I wasted a couple hours of my life.

So, what odds a fourth movie, despite this supposedly being the last of a trilogy? The final scene before the credits and the scene after the credits left it wide open.

I'll say no more, lest I get shouted at for spoilers.

Now with added spoiler in comments section for wulfboy. Don't want to see it, don't read the comments.
