So what is timesnewroman? It's not the font, rather my take on the age we live in. The USA is the new Rome and the times we live in are timesnewroman.

Paris Je Taime

Sad, Happy, Poignant, Hysterically Funny. Well worth seeing.

This was on at the Glasgow Film Theatre as part of the Glasgow Film Festival. We went along on Friday and it was well worth the trip. Well except for the random chaos which is the method used for queueing and entering the GFT. The film was eventually introduced by one of the (20) Directors, Sylvain Chomet. Set in each of the 20 arrondissements, each director had a 5 minute slot. Put together its a pretty good film and where its weak its only weak for 5 minutes. Chomet's own piece was supposed to be an animation, however that would have broke the budget, so he ended up doing it as live action. It was one of the funniest bits of the film to boot.

All that and a Chinese buffet at Ding's, beforehand. I normally not a fan of Chinese food, its usually bland, however in the big metropolis they do things differently and I had the most enjoyable Chinese food I've yet eaten.

Saturday I spent most of the afternoon making Morasso Polow, before heading off with it to a birthday party for Natalie 6, Kayley 6 and Brodie 3.

I have a flexi day tomorrow to boot. Superb Weekend
