And that’s it. I’ll be happy if I get 15 out of 22 on that, I’m pretty sure I’ve got 8 in the bag. We’ll see tomorrow. Alas there’ll be no live tweeting of the Oscars. Getting up early 7 days on the trot, drinking a bunch last night and getting about 6 hours sleep, fighting sleep in the car back (I wasn’t driving) and all of that jazz means I won’t make it. I’m half a day walker now, for the first Oscars in 4 or 5 years, so I’m not used to the hours. Not that I watched it every year in that period, but being on late shift helped…

It’ll be nowt but reviews after the round up post btw, don’t worry :)
