We've been to the cinema today. Saw Beautiful Boy and while I thought it was okay James fell asleep through the end part and said it was like Manchester on the Sea, which to him isn't a compliment at all. But why I'm posting is I was chatting to one of the staff before the movie and he was telling me the staff had been shown Endgame after midnight last night. While I'm sure they've all been sworn to secrecy the urge to grill him for spoilers was huge, but then I told myself, nope, don't even ask, you've tickets for Thursday anyway. But then again that little voice, ask him! Ask him! I was glad someone else came along and he had to go serve elsewhere.

Game of Thrones

I'm just putting this out there. Sam needs to take the iron throne, I'm just saying.

Okay, I know that won't happen, but he'd be such a lovely king.

I've seen a few people saying the pace of these last two episodes have been slow, and they have been slow-paced but I know it's the calm before the storm and things are going to go crazy from next week. Sadly I suspect the first of the major deaths will happen. I think Grey Worm's days are numbered, either him or Missandei, you just don't get to make happy plans in GoTs world. I also think Theon is in huge danger which is going to break my heart. Also, Brienne. She's had her happy Ser Brienne moment and man, that was beautiful, as is the triangle between Jaime, Brienne and Tourmound. Now I can see her going out in a blaze of fire.

Also, a massacre is going to happen in those crypts, the foreshadowing for that is blatant.

Theon and Sansa, I want them to rule the kingdoms together, again, something else that won't happen, but I want it to.

Bran is still creepy.

Ghost!

Loved the talk next to the fire. But could have done without the giant's milk story, though it seemed very in character. And Pod singing and just, all those scenes next to the fire, as happy as those characters ever get and all the time they, and us, know death, destruction and pain is coming.

Why do I even watch this show again?

Is it next week yet?



James got another Too Good to Go Yo Sushi order yesterday. We picked it up from Newcastle, and as mean as it is, I still have to smile to myself when I remember his face when he was given a full tray of vegetarian sushi offerings. They do always say it's a lucky dip with what you get, but he's become used to getting salmon etc. Oh well, I enjoyed it.

Best thing about yesterday though. Coming home I noticed our neighbour had a puppy in her garden. I looked closer and there were actually eight puppies. She invited us in to see them and we had twenty minutes of playing with bumbling, tumbling puppies with curly hair and puppy breath and nibbly little teeth *----*

LOL - poor James, spoiled by salmon! I hope the vegetarian sushi was as tasty, even if it wasn't what he'd hoped for :)

puppies! I hope you had fun with them - there's nothing better than playing with baby animals

GOT stuff:

-I'm honestly more worried about Gilly and the baby than I am about Sam, because -- THE CRYPTS. Yup, that was some blatant foreshadowing. It's going to happen and I'm going to scream. Possibly forever.

-I guess people are shipping Theon and Sansa now? And I'm not gonna go overboard dumping on it, 'cos he's so, so dying next week and what would be the point? But...I still don't like it.

-BRIENNE.


Non-GOT stuff:

-Puppy teeth!

I guess I'm more surprised than outright opposed. I didn't read any of their interactions as romantic -- at all -- and Lord knows I can superimpose romance onto anything! But. Sansa crying and falling into Theon's arms was one of the most beautiful moments in an episode FILLED with beautiful moments, so...maybe?

(And I thought their quiet, soup-eating moment was super touching, too. They didn't need to talk, not because there was nothing to say, but because they understand each other so perfectly!) (Oh, God, am I talking myself into this?)

I...wish Theon a quick and dignified death? I mean. That sounds harsh, but it's probably the kindest thing anyone can wish anyone in GOT-world. :(

Ohh I’d feel the same if I knew someone had seen it. We’re going to the midnight showing for it soo

I don’t watch the show but from what I do know I think you’re right (happiness = death) *hugs and hopes you’re wrong anyway*

Ohhh veggie sushi is amazing! 😻

Ahhh puppies. That’s amazing! That must have been super fun!

Aww, poor James! Forced to eat veggies instead of salmon :-D

Eight puppies! That must have been such a wonderful time.

Vegetable sushi can be so delicious though! I love the ones with pickled radish and with shiitake mushrooms. And avocado.

Yay puppies!!
