Well that was bloody great. So glad I saw it on the big screen. Gorgeous restoration, looks so sumptuous and good to see the extra restored footage. Hope Hammer continues this trend of cinema releases. Worth a watch if there’s any screenings near you #filmsky #horror #horrorsky #Dracula #Hammer

So looking forward to tomorrow evening. Going to see a restored and extended cut of Hammer’s Dracula from 1958 at the cinema. One of my all time favourite films and I’ve never seen it on the big screen. Italian restaurant booked for before too. Bosh! #filmsky #horror #horrorsky #Dracula #Hammer

Didnt even want to link to the video so just took a screenshot. The headline just sums up how Sky are going to treat this going forward. Just a great lark isn’t it. Maybe let’s concentrate on the noise shall we lads and not whether the cheats can handle it? #LFC #YNWA

Apple and blackberry crumble so quite appropriate to have a Bramble or two to go with it. And if you are still upset about the cheats winning earlier, have a swig and remember, “illegitimi non carborundum” #LFC #YNWA #drinksky

Well I binged this in two sittings and loved it. Heartbreaking and very different from the first adaptation but very clever how they brought it up to date. Superb cast hits it right out the park. Going to rewatch Midnight Mass again now #Carrie #tvsky #horror #horrorsky

No pudding today so have made dessert in a glass instead - Brandy Alexanders. Boozy, creamy, chocolatey with a nice bit of fresh nutmeg on top. Deliciosa! #drinksky

It may be gloomy out but some plants are still bright and colourful. This is one of my favourite carnivorous plants I own - Pinguicula laueana “Crimson”. Easy to grow Mexican butterwort that has lovely red blushed leaves in good light and stunning red flowers #carnivorousplants #pinguicula #plantsky

I don’t know what they’ve put in Dreamies but my cats treat them like crack. Someone knocked some off the worktop onto the floor, chewed and clawed through the packaging and pretty much emptied it. The addict: #catsky #catsofbluesky

As it’s clearly more autumnal at the moment my Sunday pud is more of a stick to your ribs sort - steamed lemon and syrup sponge. Always a favourite and will be served with loads of custard. Going in the double streamer for a couple of hours. Recipe below #foodsky #bakesky #cooksky

Picked too much mint from the garden for my potatoes so decided to use some for an absolutely gorgeous cocktail - the Southside. Gin based, sour with a hint of mint. Like a julep made with gin. Yummy #drinksky
