The two of us have settled into a comfortable routine now. It's cold and the sun comes up late so we usually don't get out of the house until after lunch. When we venture out, it's either for a brief shopping mission or for a walk in the countryside. This is our favourite view from Kinver Edge.
Evenings are the highlight of the day, and I have to confess I'm starting to look forward to 'Coronation St' so much that it's scaring me. Nan's getting me hooked on a lot of her soaps and detective shows but it's not all one way indoctrination.
The next door neighbour has lent me a heap of Hindi movies with subtitles and Nan and I invested 3 hours 40 mins yesterday to watch 'Lagaan'. It's a film about a cricket match (yet I still liked it!) and it was nominated for the 'best foreign film' oscar in 2002. The film was shot in Gujurat and I first saw this poster when I visited there after the earthquake a couple of years ago. The poster was signed and stuck up in a restaurant that had huge cracks running down the walls.
I'm very much looking forward to starting something constructive soon but I'm also realising that I'm going to make a great old person :)
