Circling



Both cats circling the kitchen when I got up. Dylan strangely still asleep. Moby watching impatiently as I threw on clothes, then dished out food for both of them. No hesitation from either, they both tucked in. Once I'd made my own tea and cereal, I couldn't quite slide into my own spot without nudging Moby's tail. He didn't seem to notice.

Slow day, off early. These days happen.

Finished watching The Night Manager last night. Everyone in it amazing, the Le Carre story updated and adjusted satisfyingly, tense and complex and disturbing. Hesitated to recommend it until I knew how they resolved it. Much as I liked the book, including the ending, a good book ending and a good filmed ending are usually two very different things.

Raining steadily since last night, often with snow mixed in. Not sticking, so I don't mind. Every bit of moisture good for the garden. May feels a very long way off, yet.

The Night Manager has been screening here but I paid it no attention. Now I wish I had :-(

Maybe I can get it via the on-demand TV channel's site.

Pete,
We streamed it, so I'm sure it's findable. These days. I hope you ... like might not be quite the right word, but enjoy it at any rate. It's very well done.

Just checked, and yes, I can stream it. Now I just have to schedule it.

I hadn't realised it was based on LeCarre's book. Might have paid more attention if I'd known.
