Hi Helen, thanks for your comment. Yeah I hope to see Nyad too. I guess most critics still think Killers has some excellent parts to it. …. but I agree. I hope it’s not all about the bad guys. Hmm. We’ll see.

Hi Lesley, yes we had a pretty big snowstorm on Tuesday and have about 4 to 6 inches of snow everywhere. It’s been a cold week, like 15F ouch! But it could melt away by next week. I’ll share some photos next post. Good thing you’re out of Nanaimo, could be chilly. I like seeing all the boats there.
I hope you like those movies. I think we’ll have to get Netflix for a month to see Nyad. And The Observer is a quiet small town tale … I think it’s about a 3.5 rating. Nothing fantastic but subtle and a bit poignant.
I hope all is well at the Cove and you have a great weekend.

I have Nyad on my to-be-watched list. Both of those actresses are outstanding and favorites of mine, so I’m looking forward to it. I’d like to see Golda, but the chain-smoking is a big turn-off.

The Observer sounds like a book I might enjoy. Adding it to my list. Thanks!

Hi Heather, thanks for the report on the book of Flower Moon. The case against the Osage people seems very grim … though I’m glad the author was able to uncover it. I have not read the book but I heard the author talk about it.
See what you think of Golda — it’s streaming now.
Happy Halloween!

I read Killers of the Flower Moon a few years ago and it was so depressing. There is no way I plan on seeing the film. Just death, murder, and corruption. So awful.

Golda is on my list. Definitely need to see that one.

I hope you have a lovely weekend!

Ha, Stargazer. I like hearing about London & the UK from you — you give me a bit of insight into what’s happening there. And I’m glad London is ok after the bad storm that hit Scotland, yikes. They seemed flooded a bit there.
I’ll share some pics of our snowstorm in the next post. Luckily I haven’t bought pumpkins yet — so they aren’t ruined …. yet. but it should be warm by Halloween.
Have a great week.

Luckily, we didn’t get much of the bad weather, which hit Scotland, but we did get heavy rain in amounts unusual for London (a constant drizzle is more our thing…).

Snow on the pumpkins!! Whereas snow is completely appropriate for Christmas, it doesn’t really feel right for Halloween.

I need to find a copy of The Story of a Happy Marriage.

Hi Jinjer. Yeah I think I might see Nyad soon — it’s not about war! And Golda was streaming — I think it’s on AppleTv. Mirren is pretty amazing in the role.
And The Pigeon Tunnel is on AppleTV+ … it’s a documentary and it’s a bit sad to see le Carre in the interview in it. But it’s informative and what a life!
The Observer is a small town tale that starts slow but picks up towards the end.
Hope you have a great week.
