The Dark Knight

Last night was fairly quiet again. I made a late night snack of strawberry jam on white bread with a chunk of cheese and a packet of crisps which I ate while watching a repeat of Dragon's Den (which is a show where would-be entreprenears and inventors have a chance to pitch their creations and business ideas to a panel of multi-millionaire potential investors). It can actually be really funny at times with some of the more ridiculous ideas that people come up with.

I had a day off today so I got up pretty late and headed up to the Cineworld cinema in order to see The Dark Knight, directed by Christopher Nolan. The showing I went to was at 12:30PM but there was already a long queue and the cinema was more full than I can ever remember seeing it for a day-time week-day performance. A lot of the other showings today were completely sold out. I won't say too much about the film (because I don't want to spoil it for people who haven't seen it) but I thought it was really great. I think it was possibly the best superhero movie I've seen. After the film I went out and had a drink at the bar next to the cinema. I sat there with my beer and read some of the book that I had brought with me (Survivor by Chuck Palahniuk) and wrote a bit in my notebook.

On the way home I stopped off and bought a bottle of Coke and a copy of Radio Times.
