Plutonic Rainbows

The Witch

March 27, 2016

I watched this horror movie this evening. I thought it was quite interesting and inventive but not so sure about all the praise that has been heaped on it. I guess the majority of stuff that comes out now is so derivative that any movie that shows even a small spark of originality is going to be talked about. The cinematography was pretty striking and when you consider it was made on a budget of a million dollars, it puts many other more expensive movies to shame. I recommend you see it if you get the chance.

Update.

You can now pre-order the Blu-ray from Amazon. Release date is set for July 18th.

Suitcase

March 26, 2016

Finally managed to arrange everything I wanted to take back in my suitcase. I hope the weight is okay. I sent it from the hotel using a baggage courier service. It has a couple of days to get to the airport. There isn't a great deal of preparation left now.

Hotel

March 25, 2016

I finished packing everything yesterday. This morning, looking at the empty room, I was faced with a few unpleasant realities I had chosen to ignore this last year. In truth, I couldn't have afforded anything better even if it had been offered (which it hadn't).

The hotel has wi-fi, cable TV and BBC World News. I can survive here for a few days. A proper bed too.

Tomorrow my suitcase goes to the airport. I am sending it now to avoid any delays.

Apartment

March 24, 2016

This is the last day in my apartment. I sent off the last box today by sea mail. It has some magazines and clothes. The weight still came to nearly fourteen and a half kilograms. Now I just have to clean everything and pack the suitcase.

I found a great picture of 90s Danish supermodel, Helena Christensen. Some people have contacted me about where some of the best magazine scans can be found. This is a good place to start.
