The Wait

I waited eight years for this. Eight years since seeing Terminator 2: Judgement Day, falling in love with it and waiting with baited breath for the next movie. The moment was finally here. We had booked tickets for it already and got to the cinema unusually early. It looked like lady luck was on our side, granting us the best seats in the house.
From the word go, it was bang bang bang. This was certainly not a slow starter of a film. And then it happened. I needed to go to the powder room. But no, I’ve waited eight years, I’m not going to let this mess it up! I resisted……..not for long. Soon I was squirming, crossing my legs and even looking adventurously at the paper cup I was holding. And then I gave up. I literally ran (as fast as you can whilst trying not to embarass yourself) to the ladies and then ran back. Relief. I could enjoy the movie once more.
Okay, it wasn’t amazing, there were several holes in the storyline and Arnie was slightly too much of a comic relief for my liking but as far as action movies go it was satisfactory. It also looks like there may be another movie in the series to look forward to. Next time, I’m travelling light.
p.s. The site’s back (obviously)!

    The site went kaput because my CGI scripts weren’t running correctly. Bah humbug. It took me ages to sort out.
