While Karen's away I took the opportunity to nip to the cinema last night to the late showing of Touching the Void. It's a mountaineering tale of human endurance against the odds. I read the book many years ago when I was working in an outdoor shop, so I knew the story. If you've seen the movie but not read the book, then you have to read it, it's an amazing tail and really well written.
I was quite impressed by the movie and totally unimpressed be the foreign bint sitting near me who kept on playing with her phone; someone people have no idea. The film left me feeling totally energised and wanting to just drive and find some mountains to climb. I really miss going mountaineering, Cambridgeshire is just too flat. However, I don't think I'm going to have the time or the money until after the wedding to do any.
