Mrs Fat of Fatsville here. Went out last night to see a really good film at the BFI with Internet Dating Jane and the Student about the life of some film bloke and afterwards to dinner where I ate a pizza. Today I have gained 5 pounds. Admittedly I ate pudding as well. 5 pounds! Oh bollocks. Now I'll have to work extra hard at getting it off and there's no way I'll fit into my pink dress by Saturday when I'm off to the races.
Anyway, back to the BFI where the opening address was given by Martin Scorcese - cooo! My film student was bowled over. This was followed by that bloke from the Kumars who was funny. The film was about the work of Jack Cardiff who was a very great cameraman and director and worked with most of the fabulously famous. I came away far better informed about the making of films and I'm pleased to say all those Sunday afternoons of my youth spent in front of the telly watching the afternoon film paid off as I had seen most of Jack's films.
Internet Dating Jane is seeing a chap with sticky out ears. This reminded me of the verse in Lily the Pink which ends with .... "and now he's learning how to fly". I pointed out that many great men have sticky out ears ... Prince Charles, Martin Clunes to name two. Anyway, it gives her something to hold onto during intimate moments. They haven't got that far yet as she's still trying to get over his ears and buying sticking plaster.
