Need some ideas of what to watch with the 8 & 11 year olds this evening.

We have Netflix, Disney+, Prime and the usuals like iPlayer etc.

Don’t want to spend money buying anything further like on Prime.

8yr old can scare easily.

Any recommendations?

We went with TinTin that’s supposedly a PG.

8year old traumatised cos of the guns and the fighting.

Great.

Almost gave blood today. They were so kind as I was updating my name and my gender. The issue now was my iron wasn’t high enough to safely give. But I am glad to see progress on the US Red Cross towards being inclusive.

@kinsale42 @jae then no one in Europe over a certain age could give blood?

This rubbish about bringing in a version of National Service is really making me believe Sunak is trying to lose the election and potentially salt the earth for the Conservatives at the same time. I mean, it appeals to their base, but will make anyone young and parents of school age children completely allergic to them.

Maybe he'll be remembered as the last Conservative Prime Minister, quite the legacy!

@paulsilver @stuart the Xitter theory is that there were too many letters in to oust him so he called their bluff and called an election so he wasn’t humiliated. It’s all about the power for him - and proving himself to the in-laws

@stuart @paulsilver there’s something that triggered it though. O can’t see him standing on July 4th the way he is going. Off to sunnier climates probably

My ★★★½ review of The Hunger Games: Catching Fire on Letterboxd https://boxd.it/6yfcBx

@UKFilmNerd the third book is the shortest and weakest so not for the foggiest why it became a two part film!

I remember reading the trilogy and when on the second part thinking ‘woah this would make an awesome film’ - mostly cos it was action not explanation. It remains my favourite book of the three

hobbitswife,
@hobbitswife@mastodon.me.uk avatar

@UKFilmNerd I do! It’s the better half of the book anyway. The prequel book is good, mostly. (I hate the end, it needed more chapters!) Haven’t seen how the film copes with it yet

Still looking for places to stay in Northern France for a few days in August… crikey Disney is expensive!

hobbitswife,
@hobbitswife@mastodon.me.uk avatar

@jmb DLP is mega expensive and we saved a long time to do it ‘properly’ (stayed at one of the hotels), it’s the best family holiday we’ve ever had and we’re not that into Disney! Spent a year on Facebook groups for hints and tips so we didn’t miss anything too.

hobbitswife,
@hobbitswife@mastodon.me.uk avatar

@jmb we’ve got our eye on this one:

https://www.eurocamp.co.uk/campsites/france/brittany/domaine-des-ormes-campsite

Which seems to be a Center-parks like Eurocamp - at least in terms of having an indoor pool complex as well as outdoor ones.

Also there’s supposed to be a good center parks in Belgium near a theme park - cheaper than Uk CPs

Just finished watching on . Both series! Excellent writing. Doesn’t sell Belfast too well though!

@hobbitswife@mastodon.me.uk avatar

@danieldurrans series 2 is cracking! They’ve kept the quality up. I watched both series in one cos it was so good. Now want the next series but believe it only finished airing mid April so gonna have to wait!

Youngest (8) came across Linkin Park on my random playlist.

He is now loudly singing along, over & over & it doesn’t bother me in the slightest.

Our kids have always listened to different decades of music I just find it funny that he loves something from 20+ years ago

Probably should say that the song he likes is ‘In the end’ - our Apple Music / Alexa has parental controls so he doesn’t find the sweary ones!

@danieldurrans 90s house is the best!
I wasn’t so impressed in the noughties living next door to a late teen couple who played bad cover versions of Whitney & Bryan Adams done to a fast dance beat. Now if they’d used the originals, maybe…

INDEPENDENCE DAY!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

@tripplehelix right now I’ll take Labour. At least we had sure start centres, shorter NHS waiting lists and new schools. We need PR though and that’s not gonna happen with Labour either.

Ok so that’s how to stick it to all the world’s religions. So much for diversity & respect for all.

Better ep than the previous 2 but definitely pandering to the non-British audience who don’t know the back story. Love the Dr & Ruby but the storylines are terrible

hobbitswife,
@hobbitswife@mastodon.me.uk avatar

Can we have back now? She was supposed to see the Doctor with many faces but hasn’t happened yet!

I finish early on a Monday. It’s amazing how everyone appears out of the woodwork at 2:55 wanting things. I’ve switched Teams onto ‘offline’ whilst finishing my few bits off. I don’t get paid past 3!

@danieldurrans great idea!!
