Went to see V for Vendetta last week and really really like it. I must go back and read some of the reviews, which I've heard were pretty bad to see what they objected to - I thought it was a really strong film. Highly recommended. Was discussing it in the pub, with Alex and Archie I think and someone asked whether it would fall under the heading of glorifying terrorism. What do you think?

Also, next week, tapas, Weds, in the tapas place in the new bit by the castle. What time do we want to meet up? And where - are we going to rendezvous somewhere beforehand?

Edit Plan is to meet up at Bar Ha Ha as close to 5 as possible and then head on to the tapas place between 5:30 & 6pm. OK?

Our weekly movie review show (which I don't watch often, but happened to last week) was fairly negative toward V for Vendetta. Though I can't really remember why, to be honest. I think they may have said there was too much gratuitious violence. They also commented on the controversy of "glorifying" terrorism, though they seemed fairly supportive of it, as it was a new and fresh way of looking at things. (Obviously they weren't supportive of glorifying terrorism, and I can't say whether the movie does or not -- I haven't seen it -- but yeah.)
