National Portrait Gallery – Pre-Raphaelite Sisters

The normal entry cost for this exhibition is £18.  It looks at the women who feature on many pre-raphaelite paintings, the women who painted and wrote poetry featured in paintings at the time.  For the ticket price, the exhibition is quite small but interesting.

JoJo Rabbit (2020)

Saw this in a preview. It is a slightly odd concept. The film is about 10 year Ild boy in Nazi Germany who idolised Hitler so much that his invisible friend is Hitler. The film pokes fun at the Nazi policies on racism, antisemitism and prediction of those who do not agree with them

Love Actually (2003)

British romantic comedy following various interlinked stories set around Christmas.
The various stories are quite diverse and interesting, but it would be nice if they all had happier endings.

Leon – Mushroom and Egg Muffin

This is one of the breakfast offerings from Leon. It consists of cooked mushrooms, egg,  raw spinach and spicy tomato sauce in a sough dough muffin.  For me, the sauce tasted a bit too spicy for the rest of the ingredients and the muffin was a bit dry.

Cats (2019)

This film is not as bad as most critics have suggested. It is similar to the stage adaptation with Loss of songs, music and baler style dancing with humans dressed as cats and based in the poetry of TS Elliott.
