Everyone was so eager to watch tonight’s massive movie that they arrived a quarter of an hour early, interrupting Michael’s mealtime. We called in to Tesco on the way to Plymouth so everyone could buy some refreshments, then we arrived at Vue by 6.45 as planned.

We were early enough to get excellent seats for the 7.30 showing in Screen 9 and everyone (except perhaps Callum who hadn’t seen any of the Lord of the Rings movies properly before) thought the movie was excellent. We got back to Buckfastleigh by 11.05.
