Went out to see Stardust last night - first film I've seen in ages. I actually rather enjoyed it, although it was marred by the end of the final confrontation making no sense as far as I could see. Other than that and the usual amount of o.O at the behaviour of the female characters, it was good - nice amount of sass, very pretty and so on. The only thing was, it wouldn't have taken much to make it really good. Still, not a bad way to break the duck.

Have managed to put together all my flat-packs from the weekend so now I need to figure out what's going on freecycle and what's going in a corner somewhere for the new extension of the future. Annoyingly, they still haven't restocked my TV table according to the website so I don't know if I'll be able to collect it at the weekend. On the other hand, we may not have the new TV by then anyway.

Have you read the book? (Stardust, that is, rather than the flat-packs. I can't imagine the Ikea official novelisation would make for gripping reading.)

Nope, although the other people who were going to see the film had, which always makes for an interesting contrast of views when you talk it over afterwards in the pub.

Oh! The final confrontation - I had to think a bit, but I know exactly what you mean... It was a WTF moment.
