Romeo And Waffles, Oh My!

So the first weekend I get to document and I come down with a lousy stomach bug, typical!  I was determined to still do the things I'd planned, albeit at half speed!

For me, the weekend starts on a Friday, at least that's what I try to tell myself, although it doesn't always go as planned especially if I'm working over the weekend!   One of the things I love to do whenever I get the chance is go the cinema.  I'm a complete film buff and one of my favourite directors is Shane Meadows, so I leapt at the chance at starting my weekend with a trip to The Broadway to see A Room For Romeo Brass with cast commentary that included Andrew Shim and Vicky McClure.    The Broadway Media Centre is one of the those places that feels just right and I love going there just sometimes to sit in the bar and soak up the ambience.   This particular showing, formed part of the Carlton Childrens TV workshop anniversary celebrations and the cinema was packed with former pupils.  As well as commentary, there was also on the spot reinactment of scenes which where just hilarious.  A fantastic night and I managed to get a couple more signatures for my signed box set.

I decided that I was going to go to more local fetes and events and one I'd  planned was a trip to the Fabulous Places Christmas Market at The Roundhouse  in Derby on Sunday. I've long been a fan of the Fabulous Places website and have wanted to come to this for a couple of years and was determined to find time this year to go!  

The stalls were an amazing selection of vintage style, delicious food and handmade goodies. It was incredibly busy but we still managed to get round everywhere

I also managed to fall in love with this vintage caravan outside.  Pity I felt so lousy that I couldn't sample any of the goodies they had on offer!
