Þú ert sólin

I WENT TO SEE THE CIRCUS, IT WAS AWESOME.

(Okay that's a bit misleading- it was more of a musical/circus thing. Voyage de la Vie at Resorts World Sentosa. It was brilliant.)

The History Boys

Yes.

It's got lots of bits of poetry/music/films thrown in, none of which I understand, and I have to keep replaying scenes because I can't figure out their accents, but it is brilliant. Watching it for the second time now. (And I do mean after I finished it the first time, I pressed play again.)

It's got some really witty dialogue and the boys are so full of shit and they're having fun. They wear blazers and ties and coats! Scripps and Irwin have coats with high collars! Their accents! ('Fuck' comes out like 'fook', for some of them.) Scripps's accent is the most difficult to decipher, but I love his voice. And I keep going back to watch the bit where Posner re-enacts the scene from Brief Encounter. Also where they're sitting a circle during their shared lesson and arguing about history.

The characters are wonderful, especially the teachers. And I am falling asleep. So in summary:

IRWIN OH MY HEART.
