Do those screenings really work? I would have thought there would have been too much crying to hear the film - or maybe that's just me being cynical.
Not having a child, I guess you get used to the noise? With any luck its nap time anyway

Yep, hopefully.

Speaking of nap time, I better get off the forum before lbaxx gets pissed off and PMs me telling me to go to bed :D

Member number 33 of the "100 free films in 2012" club. I saw 32, which is rather delightful.. I beat Mr. Glass on free films but he narrowly inched me out on total films seen.

Member number 33 of the "100 free films in 2011" club. I saw 20, interestingly enough. My more realistic target was to see more free films than TheyCallMeMrGlass. I lost.

Im not sure if they would work but the noise is lower and the lighting is set at a level to create a 'calming environment' for the baby, this is science!

My ex emailed me last night about Usher, I rather hoped he'd forgotten. So now, as I've not lost any weight I've got to think about what I can b*y to wear that will minimise the bulging bits :oops:

How do people stand going to meetings all the time? Two yesterday, so I already had a headache and another (5-hour!) meeting today. Then Sofa Cinema tried to claim I didn't qualify for my £20 John Lewis voucher following my free trial, which didn't improve my mood. But they have backed down now. I was looking forward to spending it!
