Tonight's repast has been a couple of those fancy M&S pork chops, accompanied by sautéed potatoes, petits pois, and gravy; and very nice it was
Now I'm going to watch Jason Bourne, featuring the character Jason Bourne, as seen in a number of other films with "Bourne" in their titles such as Bourne!, Bourne Again, and of course Bourne Free. I have no idea if it's any good, but it's one of the few films available on 4K UHD Blu-ray that I thought I might enjoy watching, so I'll give it a go; if nothing else, it'll remind me why I spent so much on a fancy tellyComment

I gave it several tries, and tried other UHD disks; they worked fine, but not the Bourne one. So I got on the Amazon app on my phone, and a replacement is arriving on Sunday, and I can drop the faulty one off in the Amazon Locker to be taken back.
So instead, I watched Scarface - the 1983 incarnation with Al Pacino. It was good, though there were a few bits that would have probably been cut to a faster pace for modern tastes.
And after that I re-watched The Devil Wears Prada, and confirmed my opinion that it's a very funny film even if you don't know or care about fashion - though it's worth knowing that it is said to have greatly annoyed Anna Wintour, the renowned editor of Vogue, on whom Helen Mirren's character Miranda Priestley is allegedly based

Morning
First time out on the bike since Sundays shenanigans. Everything still seems to be working ok.
