Day five in Devon & Wild Target

We relaxed today.  After the morning walk with our dog, my wife and I went on a shopping trip before returning with food, this being a lot of cheese and other things. We ate with the children, my favourite cheese being Stinking Bishop, which I have not had in a long while.



Other than this, we rested, having fun at the pool and just recharging batteries.  With the heat, staying put was sensible, especially so considering that Leia has not been at full health herself. She did get to watch my daughter and I in the pool but got upset at times thinking that we were fighting or drowning on occasion.

The film that we all watched was Wild Target. My daughter and wife remembered watching this before, but I cannot remember it, though some parts appeared familiar. I have no idea if this comedy was true to the original, and while I understand that critics did not like it, I did.  Yes it did have a predictable plot, but it was the enjoyable set of characters which made this come to life.  I am glad that I watched it and while I would not go out of my way to watch it again, if it was on the television, I would probably keep it on.
