The Water Horse

I went out with Hil last night, from my church. It was great. We had pizza first at Pizza Hut which is near us, and stuffed ourselves with one of their meal deal things. Two starters (garlic bread and potato wedges), followed by a medium pizza (Hawaiian--ham and pineapple), followed by desert (ice cream machine). And then we went to see The Water Horse in Vue, which was amazing, way better than I thought it would be. It was set in the Second World War, about this lonely boy who's lost his father in the war and who finds the egg of a Water Horse, which is basically the Loch Ness Monster. A bunch of soldiers get billeted with him and his mum and sister, and he becomes good friends with a handyman who was a kind of hero but who the lead soldier suspected of being a deserter or a spy. It was very funny at times, and also quite sweet and kind of serious too in parts. Worth watching I reckon.
