The Weekly Retro Movie Rundown 238

Apples and pairs! Another retro movie weekend has kicked in the front door and is ready to rock our world!

Getting stuck into all kinds of smoothie shenanigans, we find ourselves pealing, chopping, slicing, zesting and squeezing a whole heap of bright and delicious fruity goodness as we begin to concoct possible the worlds greatest ever smoothie. Balancing flavours, colours and textures like an absolute pro, we'll hit the magic button to blitz all our efforts up like a deadly tornado. Will we have created something never seen before? And will that be for a very good reason? Only the taste test will reveal!

From Romance to Bromance - TruffleShuffle's Got It Covered This Valentine's!

TruffleShuffle's one stop guide to movies on the box this Valentine’s day!

So if all’s gone to plan Casanova has swept you off your feet or Prince Charming has melted your heart to a cheesy fondue like substance! You may have received acres of roses, masses of heart shaped chocolates or you were lucky your bloke remembered and made that last minute dash to the petrol station and got you something meaningful and romantic like a rose scented magic tree for your car (hey I try!)

Or maybe you don’t  believe in  Valentine's day at all and you’ll ignore everything going on around you because it’s a scam made up by  corporate fat cats and big wigs to get you to waste money on rubbish that’s going to end up in the bin anyway. Whichever category you fall in to I’ll do my best for you if you’re spending Valentine's night in alone or with your partner.

I’ll start with the two most romantic movies on tonight.

First up a film I’ve not seen (it sounds a bit slushy!) “You’ve got mail” ITV2 7.30pm - two rivals in a bookshop business fall in love over the internet, unaware they know and dislike each other in the real world. With Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks. It’s most likely to be like “Sleepless in Seattle” but then I’ve never seen that either (most definitely slushy!) I can however quote Joey from Friends and say “Meg Ryan get’s mail and stuff”.
