All good here with an early start and off to a screening of a movie (can't remember which one) in a screening room (not sure of that either). But when I get there it'll be lovely. Imagine this - you go see a film and everyone sits quietly and attentively. No one eats, no one talks, no one phones. This of course has a massive spoiling effect. When a normal cinema trip is underway, I spend most of the time appalled at the non stop eating, chatting and texting. And facebooking. And skyping. Then spilling popcorn everywhere. Then fighting.
