So... since my last post I've been:
- working too hard through most of December
- on the gold coast (doing not much)
- in Byron Bay and environs (doing not so much again)
- at the cricket - 4th day of the Boxing Day test
- looking for somewhere to live
- hosting a new years' dinner
- lunching with D & K - who have arrived from Holland
- in Court
- working
- drinking coffee
- at K&P's wedding
- seeing I Am Legend and The Darjeeling Limited

I liked The Darjeeling Limited a lot more than M did. Great production design, some great dialogue, amusing juxtapositions etc. But you do get the feeling Wes Anderson is becoming more self-referential than is good for him.

I Am Legend has lots of good stuff about it: again, great production design and a pretty good performance by Will Smith. But it felt like there was too much left unexplained for my liking (not unexplained in a good way - just unexplained) and the ending was deeply unsatisfying.
