Detail

A short walk along the Rochdale Canal today, focussing on the details not the big picture.

And, speaking of the big picture, this afternoon we saw The Grand Budapest Hotel. It was possibly one of the silliest films I've ever seen comparable, I thought, to the Marx Brothers or the Producers. And am I the only person who thought F Murray Abraham looked like Tom Jones? Most bizarrely of all, in the middle of a tiresome 25 minutes of pre-film adverts and trailers, an advertisement for, of all things, the European Union's Common Agricultural Policy. Great fun.
