Our monthy film night will be one to remember, for all the wrong reasons.
It started well with bruschetta aperos, one of the guests said " I fancy an ice cream" and I quickly produced ice cream. Glasses of wine topped up we went into the Opera, Der Rosenkavalier. Somewhere at the start we missed getting the sub titles so we did a restart, always a bit disconcerting. Then after half an hour the dvd started breaking up with screeching noises and flashes. As Malc tried to fast forward we discussed how fat the actors were and realised we had the projector on the wrong setting. Then the opera came to an end with us all wondering what it was about... to realise we were a dvd short! There should have been two perhaps.
The guests started to drift away and none asked for their money back although it was offered.
What a night, it really was such a night !
It was never like this at Covent Garden
The night continued with a severe storm with wind and rain affecting the TV and disrupting the programme " Missing"
