How to project manage your life: River Cafe treat....
http://projectmanageme.blogspot.com/2012/04/river-cafe-treat.html
Sunday, 22 April 2012. Kel and I dined out at River Cafe. Last night. Fortunately, the majority was paid for by a gift voucher from generous partners at work - and judging by the vehicles in the car park, it was needed! We ate a wonderful meal, right on the Thames. Kel started with veal carpaccio, then monkfish for main. I plumped for scallops followed by veal shin. We shared a pannecotta for desert. Not your every day dining experience, but a superb and very much appreciated one.

How to project manage your life: Dinner with the Palmers....
http://projectmanageme.blogspot.com/2012/02/dinner-with-palmers.html
Sunday, 12 February 2012. Dinner with the Palmers. Not just with Ian and Susie this time, but also Joan and Eric and James and (soon-to-be-a-Palmer) Theresa. In a feat of space management, we all gathered and ate in Ian and Susie's wee flat. Kelly and I were on starter duty, with devils on horseback, followed by simple crostinis. Ian whipped up a wondrous slow-cooked pork with all the trimmings. 4 July 2014 at 13:28. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Dinner with the Palmers.

Thursday, 8 March 2012. The pre-Olympic fan fare brought spectral light to Whitley Bay. Recently. An Olympic beam was projected from St. Mary's lighthouse. Far and wide. Spectators gathered on the beach in their hundreds to witness the spectacle. Mum and Dad included. Nice. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Jude, up and about.

How to project manage your life: The Killing II....
http://projectmanageme.blogspot.com/2012/01/killing-ii.html
Tuesday, 10 January 2012. After watching the superb first series. Last summer, it's taken a while to get around to the second series. I'm not sure quite why we waited, but it was well worth it. With a slightly different premise to the first, the hunt this time is for a serial killer. Sarah Lund is back, with a similar array of knitwear and a new partner in Strange.

How to project manage your life: The Artist....
http://projectmanageme.blogspot.com/2012/01/artist.html
Tuesday, 31 January 2012. What an utterly irresistible film. The Artist. Has won many plaudits and even Oscar nominations. Since its release. Thankfully this charming, funny and endearing silent film, about the silent movie era in the '20s and '30s, steered clear of novelty. Well clear. The performances of leads Jean Dujardin. Playing George Valentin) and Berenice Bejo. Playing Peppy Miller), were outstanding. And for me made all the more watchable owing to their (relative) lack of a famous face.

How to project manage your life: Lucian Freud, National Portrait Gallery....
http://projectmanageme.blogspot.com/2012/04/lucian-freud-national-portrait-gallery.html
Sunday, 22 April 2012. Lucian Freud, National Portrait Gallery. Within months of his untimely death, the National Portrait Gallery. Is exhibiting a retrospective of the British painter's oeuvre. I was tremendously excited - having been fascinated and in awe of Lucian Freud's. Painting when at school, I desperately tried to copy his style and brush technique in my own work. As his work developed, Freud's brush work became looser, (lazier? None of this deterred from my over all affection toward his work...

How to project manage your life: Source Code....
http://projectmanageme.blogspot.com/2012/01/source-code.html
Tuesday, 17 January 2012. Appearing nearly a year ago, this is one I've only just succumbed to. I must say, at first glance I was pretty uninspired - Jake Gyllenhaal. Taking on an action roll, in a Speed. Esque romp. But I was totally wrong. Directed by Duncan Jones. Who also chaired Moon. The film is much more sci-fi, much more complex and much more thriller than anything Speed could ever have brought to the table. Jones openly talks about the film being indebted to Alfred Hitchcock. Strangers On A Train.

How to project manage your life: Nige hits 70....
http://projectmanageme.blogspot.com/2012/01/nige-hits-70.html
Tuesday, 31 January 2012. The Prestons' and the Barkers' all went up to the Jolly Fisherman. A week past Saturday. The pub itself has relevance, as friends and Andy own it, so it was the perfect place to celebrate Nige's 70th together. It was the perfect setting too, right on the coast, overlooking the sea on a wonderful day. We tucked in to lunch and raised a glass of prosecco and cut a cake. A lovely afternoon, many happy returns! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Jude Ellis Preston is christened.

How to project manage your life: Contagion....
http://projectmanageme.blogspot.com/2012/01/contagion.html
Monday, 2 January 2012. Take a bow. That. Was truly awful. How and why the 'all star' cast signed up to the film is beyond me. Poorly acted, (Jude Law is the case in point), poorly written, poorly realised. What a waste of 2 hours.I wanted to contract the virus just to spare me of the movie. Watch it only to behold the dross. But yes Jude Law in Contagion, god awful. 3 January 2012 at 12:24. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Jude Ellis Preston is christened.
