Well, Easter Sunday went as fast as it came. A day spent around the house, running after Aimee and keeping the inlaws entertained.
Emma was extra kind to me, and I got a lie-in until about 11. Which was fantastic, and just what I needed. Beats an Easter egg, anyhow!
Emma has a mad scheme to redecorate the living room, and has painted some of one of the walls to illustrate her ideas. I’m not totally convinced, but then – I’m no Lawrence Llewelyn-Bowen, and every time she’s redecorated in the past, I’ve been proven totally wrong and it comes out looking ace.
Melody is a Pratchett fan, so we end up watching the Sky interpretation of the first Discworld novel, The Colour of Magic. Surprisingly, I’m drawn in. I’m not a Pratchett fan, really. I read a Discworld book in school once, and I found it quite tedious.
The TV interpretation, with David Jason as the slightly manic, bumbling Rincewind and Sean Astin hamming up the ‘tourist’ inn-sewer-ants (insurance) salesman Twoflower, is pretty good. It’s clear that Sky have poured in some serious cash following the success of Hogfather a couple of Christmases ago, and the production is excellent. It’s a two-parter, so I’ll have to catch the end tomorrow.
Last night in the ‘lid’ tonight. I feel a little sad – I was quite enjoying stopping up there!
