Feeling snotty and under the weather today so my comfort viewing is old 70s disaster films. Just finished Airport 77, one of my all time favourites, and about to start Gray Lady Down which, shamefully, I've never seen before.
I wish they still made films like this.

Fabulous cultural weekend in London at the Electric Dreams exhibition at @tatemodern.bsky.social, a #HiddenLondon tour of Aldwych station by London Transport Museum, and seeing the awesome #hadestown at the Lyric Theatre (no pics of that bit I'm afraid)

I won't be sad to finish this year. On balance it's been a crappy one. I lost my dad in April, my gorgeous dog was extremely ill for much of the summer and autumn, and I've had several months of pretty poor mental health. Hoping 2025 brings health and joy. So, 2024, you can fuck off now, bye.
