Just a few bits and pieces from over the weekend...
Will and I went to the Tyneside cinema's 76th anniversary celebrations. The Tyneside is this awesome independent cinema which has recently been refurbished to it's former art-deco glory. They have three different screens and a couple of different bars (serving cocktails that are named after each of the screens! The Classic, The Roxy and The Electra), not to mention a great cafe and digital lounge which hosts all sorts of interesting stuff. Last year, for the 75th anniversary, the Tyneside showed 75 straight hours of classic films (across the three screens) and sold each ticket for 75p each! It was so popular, that they did it again this year, so Will and I got in on the action! We saw:
A Clockwork Orange (or rather, Will did, as I forgot that I had to go to work)
The Princess Bride
Goodfellas
Fargo
We were also going to see Audition (scary Japanese horror) at 5.50am, but we wussed out and went for extra sleep instead.
My Dad and his neighbors were having one of their bi-annual street parties on Sunday, so we went down for that to eat and be merry.
Saxophone quartets and space hoppers, people. It doesn't get much better than this...
Such a nice weekend. Only have to push through to Wednesday now, and then I'm done with Uni for the summer! Woop woop!
