It’s been a good weekend for films. Went to see The Long Walk (incredible) and watched Weapons at home (didn’t get the chance to see it in cinema). Both 10/10. Need recommendations for what to watch next 🍿 #stephenking #weaponsmovie #thelongwalk #writingcommunity

Fanad Head Lighthouse staircase. I don’t live in Ireland anymore, so when I’m home I like to make the most of it. Well worth a visit.

My kids have good taste in music, even if I do say so myself.

Saint Peter’s Tin Church, near Carrickmacross, Monaghan. Built on a rock. Served the local mill, formerly Church of Ireland, deconsecrated 1950’s. Cool place to visit if you are an Irish history buff. Hands down the prettiest church you ever did see.

Watching this. Didn’t manage to see it in the cinema. First scene doesn’t hold back, does it? #writingcommunity #28yearslater #fridaynightfilm #movie

Charity shop haul. Dropped a ton of books at the local charity shop and picked up these two for myself. Found out The Mist is the last part of a series. Do I have to read in order or can I start with this one? Thanks #writingcommunity #readingcommunity

Great first line for a novel. A bit ‘extra’, but I won’t be parking anywhere near this building 😆 #writingcommunity #norfolk #northnorfolk

Saw lots of posts about which authors have you bought five books from. Besides authors my kids like, only F.Scott Fitzgerald. Got these gorgeous Penguin Classics editions a couple of years ago. Have I had the chance to read them? Nope, but I spend a lot of time looking at them 😭😭😭

Took my two teenage kids to see the latest Final Destination movie (awesome). I think it explained to them why I triple check the gas is on properly at a BBQ! If this doesn’t get my middle one to tie his shoelaces nothing will 😂

Invite me to a bbq and I promise I’ll bring the best potato salad you ever had (even if I do say so myself).
