Calling at Kendal fest!
A shout-out must go to the lovely Tizz as we are normally the festival buddies, but this year she was double booked and has had to go to deepest darkest Cornwall instead of a-festival-ing with lil ole me. I'm sure she is having a fabulous time and I'm sure I also will have a fabulous time but I'll miss you much, lovely x
This year's fest looks very exciting, haven't been to this one before so it's a whole new festival to experience. It's only a wee one and actually won best small festival last year. Blondie are closing the festival on Sunday night (OMG!) and there are many other cool bands that I can't wait to see. There's a library with a twist as it lets rock'n'roll bounce out of it all night, we have to dress up as beasts or monsters (face paints at the ready), and there's tonnes of other coolio stuff.
It's funny as when I was about 9 years old we went to the very same campsite where it was being held. My overwhelming memory from this was sleeping in a big blue and orange tent, on a blow up bed that kept on deflating...let's hope that doesn't happen this time as sleeping right on the ground at 36 ain't no fun!
Happy weekend to everyone! I will report back once we return to normal bed and non-camping shores. Keep your eyes peeled on the face-site as I'll probably be doing a few mobile uploads along the way. Bye-eeee!

Star Wars
Whoever wrote this Alchemy game is definitely a Star Wars fan. Couldn't sleep and aimless combining made robot + hero = R2D2 then jedi + frog = Yoda. Made me smile.

2D v 3D
The verdict according to Fizz: not much difference. The 3D-ish-ness was very subtle in most places. The only time I really noticed it was at the end when there's a lot of bits of ash floating about - those who've seen it will know the bit I mean, those who haven't won't find any spoilers here. Sweetie. Anyway, the bits of ash looked like they were really floating just a few rows in front of us. Very cool but not hugely in-your-face. Which is better really, there was always the danger that the 3D would be OTT and spoil the film. But no, it was still an ace film. And Neville still rocks!
POT-TER! POT-TER!
Going to see HP 7.2 for the second time tonight, but this time in 3D. I'm not that bothered about the 3D to be honest but I'm looking forward to seeing it again. I think you get a lot more out of a film the second time round, you notice more of the little details. PBfH is coming with. I don't think I've introduced her to blog world, so here's a quick bio: her name is Phsycho B**** from Hell, which is meant completely ironically since she's the sweetest person imaginable. She's a mum of two and works in the same madhouse as I do.
So I'll blog my thoughts on 2D v 3D later...
