Christmas what:nots...

Well here we are it's Christmas Eve - the presents are scattered under the tree, the children are tucked up in bed...ok...not quite - too much excitement! I hope you have a wonderful Christmas, and holiday with loved ones. We head off late tomorrow for a fortnight in Vermont, Boston and New York (woohoo!). I'm not sure if I'll get a chance to post while I'm away, but I will be back to regular posting on January 5. Thank you so much for all your comments and support over the past year - the kindness and kinship of the blogging community constantly amazes me. Happy Christmas!

Restrepo...


Directed by Sebastian Junger (A Perfect Storm) and Tim Hetherington, Restrepo is an entirely sobering and numbing documentary that follows an American platoon based in the Korangal Valley of Afghanistan. An experimental film in that the cameras never leave the valley, and there's no interviews with generals or diplomats, Restrepo leaves you wondering how on earth anyone can go through this, and return to 'normal' life.
