Finally got round to finishing Stranger Things. I'd echo a few thoughts, first half of series 4 was excellent, like, really excellent, then the rest was decent but far far too much filler and unnecessary scenes (so...filler, I guess). I thought this was the last season so was a bit disappointed by the open ending.

They have decided to make a fifth and final season.

Just watching a programme about the heatwave of 1976 on CH5. Showed a Ladybird invasion on the coast. Whatever happened to Ladybirds? Haven’t seen one for years.

My mums talks about this heatwave all the time but I can’t remember it as I was only 7.

Caused quite a commotion by the looks of it.

Edit- Christ they just said Beer ran out! Outrageous

Just another casualty of our biodiversity crisis and looming environmental collapse.

I was 16 and sacked off the last few months at school to go and get a summer job in Cornwall, set off on cup final day, hitch-hiking, got a lift off some rags and ended up watching them get beat by Southampton. I then got a lift with some saints fans to there, the whole town was out celebrating and I had a great night minesweeping in the pubs, slept in the stairwell of a block of flats, watched the bus parade in the pissing rain on the Sunday and then set off for Cornwall, took me 2 days.
I got a portering job in a hotel and had the best summer, don't remember the ladybird invasion but I do recall there were Maybugs everywhere in the evenings, big fuckers, also known as cockchafers, no idea why.
It was indeed a brilliant hot summer, didn't come back home until October.




edit, see plenty of ladybirds in our garden this time of year, not just red and black ones either, some yellow ones about.

Just finished. Tokyo Vice a slow burner not much action but throughly enjoyed it, roll on series 2, 7/10

Enjoyed the last episode of Stranger Things. Looking forward to the final season.

 

[bluemoon32]

Anyone else find the Lincoln Lawyer a bit cheesy and underwhelming. I was expecting a gritty thriller but it all felt a bit 80’s to me

6.5 / 10

Didn't help that the tv character is nothing like the character in the books.
