Morning all. Hope you had a great weekend.

I was in the mood for a horror movie set at camp and found a couple. I watched one made in 83 called Camp Sleepaway. It actually wasn't too bad, has some out of date thinking around some issues (won't say because it's a spoiler) but the special effects are surprisingly really good, especially for the 80s.

And how good was 80s fashion??

Also I've noticed in the older movies, kids sound whiny as. Think how Luke Skywalker sounds at the start of a New Hope. That high pitched whine when he can't go to Toshi Station.

But the real star of the show was this guy. The total package and screen stealer. I laughed for a good five minutes at this part.

watching the Vocalyst do reacts to John Farnham and honestly this woman is just lost in the sauce as soon as he opens his mouth. I don't know whether to laugh or be humbled by how much we just take farnsey for granted

I'm watching The Englishman Who Went Up A Hill And Came Down A Mountain... This is the perfect silly British 90s comedy I needed for tonight. I don't care if they're a bit exaggerated but I loooove singsong Welsh accents πŸ₯°

"Maps, dear Betty, are the undergarments of a country"...

E: that was thoroughly heartwarming and lovely. 100 hobbits (only because it's truly a hobbitty vibe). Now I've got to read up about the crazy true story it was based on!

I recommend watching this 10-minute highlight reel of this morning's Matilda's game before it is inevitably removed by Youtube:

Such a roller-coaster of a game.
