5 tenuous facts relating to going to the cinema...
1. If you plan going out for an indoor activity, the sun is bound to come out, it is the law!
3. If you pop into The Eternal Maker, before going into the cinema, because it is
4. If you go and see an animated kids film, with only one name you recognise, it is bound to be a bit rubbish, so why are you surprised?
5. If you pop into John Lewis at Home after the film just for sewing machine needles, and you promise all those left in the car that you will only be a minute, you will bump into a really nice old lady who will give you lots of needle advice in trade for picking your brains about her new walking foot.

Linking with Cindy's randomness and then getting on with finishing my Aeroplane Bag; I've just got the turning gap in the lining to hand stitch closed and I am ready to jet off somewhere! xxx
ooh, can't wait to see that bag!
ReplyDeleteI love the sweetie list - some of them took me a while to work out but I think I've got them all, now...great choices, bairns!
ReplyDeleteP.S. What did they get in the end?!
I think I would park the kids at the cinema and go next door! Di x
ReplyDeleteOh my heart... TYOOWING GUM!!! Priceless :-)
ReplyDeleteLovely randomness! The Croods? I haven't heard of it!
ReplyDeleteDid the family left waiting in the car while you got said needles believe the story about the old lady?
ReplyDeleteThe John lewis conversation sounds like a fair trade! Looking forward to seeing your bag :) x
ReplyDeleteLOL... I remember sitting through some really bad movies in my young child days! I had no quilt shop near the theater though.
ReplyDeleteHa! The sun comes out, even the daffs are finally out, and we went indoors to roller disco! Was the film good? The kids keep asing to go...
ReplyDeleteBut did you get into the film for free??!!And you could be arrested in Australia for leaving kids in the car on a a sunny day!!!
ReplyDeleteI think you deserved a trip to EM for sitting though the film, a few more years Gond you can go to EM INSTEAD of going to the film!!!
ReplyDeleteI love the sweetie list and Benta's suggestion :)
ReplyDeleteSounds like a great trip to the cinema, minus the cinema bit :)

Ha, I refused to see The Croods- I paid the vacation care program to take her, so I didn't need to waste 2hrs of my life!! Load of rubbish I thought!
ReplyDeleteHaha this post made me laugh more than once! I wish seeing the movies could always involve this much sew-talk!

You most definitely did hold your own today. So you're NOT recommending the Croods?
ReplyDeleteHow long are your Easter holidays? Seems like you r kids have been off for weeks
ReplyDeleteSo glad I'm past the 'unbearable kids films' stage! Jxo
ReplyDeleteI miss going to see Shrek and Toy Story !! guess a 19 year old doesn't want his mum going to the movies with him!! and I guess I would not want to see whatever he wanted to see anyway!
ReplyDeleteYou do realise that you can't use that one again!! ... you know ! "I'll just be a minute kids - just need a reel of thread!!" you will have to come up with a new story!
Enjoy the rest of your holidays,
Cheers from Helen
What a shame they are not old enough to park at the cinema & you get 2 hours in the lovely shop. Don't worry the time will come.
ReplyDeleteI still love Monsters Inc, Toy Story, Bugs Life etc. Have been told the movie Brave with the redheaded heroine is good but no kids to take to see it & The Prince draws the line at kids movies. *Lord of the Rings, James Bond et all are not considered kids movies. LOL
I really must try to get to Chichester somehow, difficult with no car. Oh well, just have to suffice with my room FULL of fabric! LOL
that sweetie list is hilarious!
ReplyDeleteMy daughter would totally agree with the sweets list! Love your fussy cuts :)
ReplyDeleteAhh, I take it they're learning to read with phonetics? o.O I'm a sucker for a good Disney animation, but the emphasis is on good, and the trailer for this one isn't winning me over!
ReplyDeleteGreat post and one I completely identified with!!
ReplyDeleteI am so glad my days of taking little people to the cinema are over. I hate going, am always cold and uncomfortable. If I am lucky I may never need to gho agsib
ReplyDeleteHaha frooty polos for me then!
ReplyDeleteIsn't there a nearer cinema to you than Chichester?? Poor you having to go all that way!
I so adore the phonetic spelling (as I've said before)! My husband I rotate who takes the kids to see animated films each holidays. Must be my turn! The Croods is not something I wanna see, and luckily they're not asking!
