Me: Wow, Serafina, that was a mighty leap. Good to see you still have it in you Serafina: What do you mean? I am in my prime. Me: Like 'Miss Jean Brodie '? Serafina: Who? You humans always have to make it about you. It's your inferiority complex. Because you don't have a tail Me: Yes Serafina

Watched The Nun II last night. Thoroughly enjoyed it.It managed to avoid the 'saggy middle' and 'twenty minutes too long' syndromes that seem to afflict so many horror films. Taissa Farmiga was great, reprising her role as the intuitive. miracle-performing nun in her usual (largely) understated way.
In Vienna, if you are very fortunate, you too can live in an apartment in a block of flats owned by the council and designed by Friedensreich Hundertwasser. Here, the paths undulate, there are no straight lines & every window has 'eyebrows' #hundertwasserhaus #Hundertwasser #Vienna #living #Austria
Elisabeth of Austria,serene in Vienna's Volksgarten,close to where Hitler addressed a huge crowd in 1938. 7 years on, the city was destroyed. Now its beauty is there for all to relish. Still,Sisi sits. Immortalized. Yet her life was far from serene. #Sisi #KaiserinElisabeth #Vienna #Austria #history

Hospital. The word is enough to turn many of us into quivering jellies. No wonder so many of them are haunted - and none more so than Newsham Park. Here's one from their bulging archives... www.catherinecavendish.com/2025/11/the-... #hospital #NewshamPark #ghost #haunted @flametree.bsky.social
The most sensitive, beautifully executed version I have ever seen. Two and a half hours long but, for me, no sagging in the middle or dragging out of any element of the story. A damn fine film by any measure. #movies #horror #frankenstein #GuillermoDelToro
