Speed reader

My husband is the fastest reader I have ever encountered. His comprehension rate is phenomenal too. As a child he joined the adult library of 2 libraries and his family gave him all of their library cards just so that he could get his weekly supply of books. School somewhat bored him.

After his postgraduate studies he really took charge of his own development and now reads a staggering amount of non-fiction. His interests are mainly business management/theory, zen, taoism, kung fu, taijiquan, baguazhang, philosophy, theology, self-help, pop-psychology, anatomy, massage, CTM, martial theory and language.

The older he gets, the more like Jiddu Krishnamurti​ he sounds.

Black Narcissus

At the end of the movie Black Narcissus (1947) it said that the film was made entirely in a studio. Given the staggering Himalayan vistas and mood of the film, this was a remarkable achievement. Incredible skill and technology.

Thunderbirds

In the first episode of Thunderbirds my hubby spotted a continuity error that I never even noticed.

Before the doctor comes in to give his report at the end of Trapped in the Sky, he asks for the International Rescue pictures to be changed for the more conventional family portraits in order to preserve the anonymity of IR.

This is done, yet when Jeff shakes hands with the doctor, the portraits are still showing IR in full uniform. It happened twice and I never saw it.

Tesco on-line

I wanted some almond flour and couldn't find it in town. Tesco on-line sold it. They also had whey protein on sale. I haven't bought from them before on-line. Next day delivery was only £1 with a range of time slots.

The goods arrived exactly as ordered and the driver was very professional.

Don't buy from Blacks

I buy a lot of my products on-line because the variety is better than the high street.
This weekend I bought some hiking gear from Blacks on-line.
What a fiasco.

They take your money immediately and then e-mail you to say that the products listed on the website are no longer available but you'll get your money back in a week or so.

What?

You complain and they ignore your e-mails. Don't buy from Blacks.
