Day 39
I went to the flicks last night… no-one still says that, it’s going to the cinema now, or going to the movies. I went with friends to see A Quiet Place 2.
The world’s invaded by monsters and we follow one small family, mother, baby, son and daughter. It’s the hidden horror genre, not Jaws or Alien, although these monsters have horrific jaws and are aliens. There’s determination, courage, loyalty, love, forgiveness and multitude moments sure to make you almost spill your popcorn. A brilliant film, the star for me is teenage deaf actor, Millicent Simmonds as daughter Regan Abbot.
April 30th 2021 would’ve been Captain Tom Moore’s 101st birthday; in recognition and in remembrance of his achievement, a new challenge was announced by his family. They challenged ordinary folk to complete a hundred somethings to raise more funds for The Captain Tom Foundation – ‘whether you bake 100 cupcakes or walk 100 laps – help celebrate Captain Tom’s achievements.’ The official ‘Captain Tom 100’ has now finished, but I’ve challenged myself to write a 100 word blog each day for 100 days. I started on May 1st and when I complete my task, I’ll donate £100 to his Foundation.
