Our old microwave expired so we got this one on sale.

It has a 900W microwave, an 1100W grill and a 2500W convection oven that goes up to 240°C. The turntable diameter is 315mm so it is quite a bit bigger than the old one. All stainless steel.

The Artist

Today I saw The Artist and it was good. Very entertaining. I don’t think there was any more to it than that despite some weird theories on the internet, but being entertaining is my number one criterion for a film so I have to rate it highly. And cute dog.

Haywire

Filed under: Movies — William_T_Goodall @ 20:22

Saw Haywire today. Gina Carano is a credible action star and the rest of the stellar cast comported themselves skilfully. The plot and the script are a bit perfunctory, simply sketching in motivation for the bone-crunching and convincing action scenes. I was the only person in the screening, on the last day of the film at that complex. Underworld: Awakening (3D) is back for another week.
