Shinies!
Someone sent me a virtual gift to cheer me up: an adorable baby otter. Go to my profile and give it a pat - it's so very cute. So, whoever you are, anonymous benefactor, thank you!
Ventured into "Alexandra" today, which is the biggest bookshop in our proximity. Got DVDs. Yeah, I know - what's new? But these were important DVDs. One of them the Bakshi animated movie "The Lord of the Rings"; I already had it on videotape, but with Hungarian dubbing - now I can watch it in English.
The other one is "Excalibur", with Nigel Terry playing Arthur. It's a film I saw as a young girl and wanted to find ever since. Now, after all those years, it's finally mine. And it even has English subtitles! Yay!
Not all Hungarian-made DVDs have; the Torchwood first season doesn't have any, and neither does the New Who Series One with Christopher Eccleston, the one I bought in Vienna. I don't know why the Germans didn't gave us subtitles, either. Sometimes the actors are not easy to understand, especially for a non-native speaker. Oh, well, at least the British take us stupid foreigners under consideration. Or, most likely, their own people with hearing problems.
My Toshiko bunny spawned again. *sighs* As if I didn't have enough unfinished stories. But such the life of a writer.

Go, you!
I vaguely remember seeing the animated LOTR as a girl, but I couldn't tell you when or where for sure. And the bit of "Excalibur" I've seen was certainly striking. Enjoy!
