Have you heard news? - GP series

Evening citizens of Middle Earth!
Gi Suilon!

Guilty pleasures! Everyone has them but finding out what they are can be hard for some. I can tell you now that I am not one of those people. In fact I have so many that I've decided to make a mini series out of it. I'm not sure yet how many posts it will consist off yet but I'm going to try and do one at least once every two months.

So my title as usual is related to an obsession of mine. This one being a song lyric from Cliff Richard's Summer Holiday which brings me onto my guilty pleasure for this post. I was first introduced to Cliff Richard musicals around two years ago when my auntie gave me a box set for Christmas after I told her I'd never seen Summer Holiday before. I watched it with my mum and my dad shortly afterwards and although it really is extremely cringe-worthy I discovered that I really enjoyed it! This led to a downward spiral of learning all the songs off by heart by repeatedly watching the sing-along version however there was a point where I became slightly bored. That's when I decided to watch the young ones which was another of the movies my auntie had given me. If it was possible, I loved it more than Summer Holiday. I'm not sure if it was down to the plot or the songs but I became even more obsessed than I'd been before.

After a while the novelty died down and even though I still loved the movies, I no longer watched them at every opportunity; well that was until recently. When I came back from my holiday this summer I still had a few weeks left of school break and being the lazy person I am, I spent that time binge watching my DVD collection. This is when I stumbled upon Summer Holiday once again and re-watched it. It wasn't as great as I remembered it to be, perhaps because I'm a bit older now but I still enjoyed it and preceded to watch the young ones as well. This is when came to the realisation that I'd never watched the third film that had been in the box set which was " jjjj and the shadows".

This going to be my task for this month (that is if I can find the time) because I plan to set myself a challenge with each of the posts in my GP series which will help me to love what I'm writing about even more than I already do. Goodbye for now and I will see you next week with another blog entry.


That's all until I next post so...
Tenna enta lúmë - May we meet again!
