Fish & Millionaire

We have had some storms with high winds and horizontal rain recently so going to the beach was not on the cards today. Instead went out for lunch at lovely Manly Fish Cafe. They remembered us from last week, so decided to set expectations for the future by modifying the meny & continue moving the furniture around.

I have been there a few times now and always have the same table, where I move the chair to get a better view. Today I asked them to swap the Garlic Prawns that came on top of the Silver Dory for the Garlic Crayfish Tails that normally come with the Ocean Trout. They happily agreed, so now I will think of how to modify the menu for next week ;-). In a place like Manly where there are many tourists and day-trippers, it is good to go more than once to the same place so they understand you live here.

Afterwards the weather was still bad so went to see the movie "Slumdog Millionaire". It is about an Indian boy from the slums that goes on "How to be a Millionaire" to get back in touch with a girl he lost touch with. For various (and not very nice) reasons he answers the first questions correctly and the movie starts with him being questions by the police for cheating, when they broke for the evening, with one question left for the next day. It was good, worth seeing if you have nothing better to do, but not absolutely brilliant. It is made by the same guy who made "Trainspotting" although they are completely different movies.
