The Weekly Retro Movie Rundown 249

Crisps and dip at the ready! It's another retro movie filled weekend folks. Let's tuck in...

Like many of you retro movie lovers in the land, we spend a lot of our time waiting for a special delivery. Sometimes it's some classic retro 80s clothing, sometimes it's that new tap you're had to replace (exciting!), however sometimes, juuuust sometimes it's something a whole lot more amazing and wondiferous! When it arrives, you're so excited and relieved that you completely forget all the drama, heartache and frustration that came in the moments before. Being completely overwhelmed with emotions and joy at the sight of your shiny new thing and what it will mean. Some deliveries are good, some a great and some are simply the best things ever...

Have a happy retro weekend!

The Weekly Retro Movie Rundown 247

Great pit of fire! A retro movie weekend is here and ready to rock our world!

Firing up the trusty BBQ for another adventure into culinary excellence, we find ourselves in charge of the heat and fury of a few hundred hot and angry coals. Releasing their built up energy in one almighty session, we'll throw on what can only be described as a tasty plethora of food goodness and watch it spit, sizzle and crisp up in front of our eyes.  Flipping and spinning our way to cooked perfection, we'll serve up our final work to the hungry mouths that have been patently waiting.

Have a happy retro weekend!

The Weekly Retro Movie Rundown 246

Pinch my arm and slap my knee! Another classic retro movie weekend is here and we're pretty gosh darn excited!

Working away like a wild and determined Beaver, we find ourselves racing the clock to collect all the materials and build something bigger and better than anything before it. Chomping, dragging and swimming our way to dam glory, we'll work night and day to create something we can be proud of that will show the world what a small but eager creature can do before capturing our masterpiece on celluloid wonder.

Have a happy retro weekend!

The Weekly Retro Movie Rundown 240

Crashing waves and soaky wet seaweed! Another retro movie rundown is here to guide you though another weekend!

Slowly bobbing up and down in a vast, cold lake, we find ourselves moments from being pulled along by the magical ropes and bars which are the only thing attaching us to the safety of the boat. Steadying our position with the board stuck firmly to our feet, the rope will begin to tighten in our grip as the boat starts to roar away from us. Feeling the force (not that one!) pull through the arms and legs, mysteriously we will begin to rise our of the depths and with one twist and turn, we will face side on and begin to ride the surface of the water like something from a superhero movie.

Have a happy retro weekend!

The Weekly Retro Movie Rundown! Bank Holiday Special!

Well tickle my chin and slap my thigh! Another looooong retro movie weekend is here! Again... so soon!

Grabbing one of the many long, colourful and historic Maypole ribbons, we line up alongside our fellow pole friends as we prepare to begin our routine. Striding, ducking and turning, we'll slowly and majestically begin to create something magical. Watching the colours wind and intertwine as we go like the plot of a top classic movie, we'll worth together, side by side to create our masterpiece. Finally, with each strand complete, we will have created something wonderful, neatly wrapped up ready to be captured onto celluloid wonder.

Have a happy retro weekend!

Grey and drizzle! Another weekend is here which can only mean... it's time for... another retro movie rundown!

Sugar and spice! Mixing together the perfect blend of aromatic spices and flavours, we find ourselves in the throws of a chilli cook-off. Mixing the finest and freshest ingredients with a spoon of this and a splash of that to create a balanced and spicy delight, we'll eagerly taste at each stage to ensure a correct course of culinary travel. Finishing off with a helping of soft fluffy rice, we'll serve up our creation to be savoured, enjoyed and ultimately judged like a director revealing their latest creation.

Have a happy retro weekend!
