Best movie at the Oscars: 12 Years a Slave. We had planned on seeing it in Newtown today. It would have involved taking a very early train to Sydney. However,  we did find out this morning that this movie is already being shown in our local cinema. There is a session at 12,15. So we decided we are going to see it here in our neighbouring suburb this afternoon.

Peter had already informed our children via Facebook that we would be all day in Sydney. He also pointed out that they would not be able to reach him via mobile phone the reason being that he cannot find the phone. The other day when he went out for a  run and I was out too, he hid the phone in a secure place so the robbers would not be able to find it. Now he cannot find his phone any more!

While he was looking for his phone, he found his new watch which he had also been hiding in a secure place and could not find for a few days. The problem is, Peter tends to hide his valuables in different spots all the time, instead of just sticking to the same spots which would then be easier to remember. I happen to know a few of his hiding places. But I have not idea where his mobile phone could be. By now we looked everywhere and we just cannot find it.

I do not own a mobile phone of course. I am happy to just use our house phone.

Please have a look here what it says here about the book and the movie: 12 Years a Slave:
