Happy happy joy joy, it's only the weekend!
So just like a big joyous family sat at a table after a hefty meal, our stomachs nearly full to popping but with just enough room to squeeze in desert...as always. Let us be your trifle-preparing mother as we dish up layers of spongy retro movie magic, chunks of wobbly cinematic masterpieces, all topped off with creamy scoops of celluloid wonder and never forgetting the hundreds and thousands of course.

GREAT SCOTT.... Back to the Future turns 28!! Is it the most perfect retro movie?
With so many dates involved with the three Back to the Future films itâs hard to work out which anniversary you should be wearing your Back to the Future T-Shirts for. Trust me, today is one of the days you should be wearing your flux capacitor with pride but that's not because it's the anniversary of the day that Doc Brown asks Marty McFly to meet him at 1:15 A.M. at the Twin Pines Mall itâs not even the anniversary of the day Doc, Marty, Jennifer and Einstein travelled to Oct. 21, 2015... 28 years ago today saw Doc Brown and Marty McFly unleashed on the public!
I may have only been 3 at the time, but with a massive love of all things automotive it wouldn't have taken a rocket scientist to work out that this retro blockbuster was likely to become my favourite flick! Never have I craved some movie merchandise so much more than wanting my very own DeLorean since the very first time I saw this movie!
I would be willing to bet that this is the perfect retro movie for petrolheads around the world, but is this movie really perfect? Well, with so many continuity errors in it it would appear not.... But I think I love the movie even more for it's funny little foibles. Here's 10 of my favourite....
1 - When Doc and Marty are at the Twin Pines Mall and Doc is telling Marty about the car etc, he says "never mind that now, never mind that now..." and Marty has the camera facing the ground, yet later when Doc in 1955 is watching the video, you can see him saying that on the video.
Gromit Unleashed Hits Bristol!
Are you as big a fan of the troublesome, adventurers Wallace and Gromit as we are?? Then this could be right up your street....literally!
Yes an amazing 80 creatively decorated, 5ft tall statues of one of our all-time favourite TV dogs Gromit have been carefully placed all around our hometown of Bristol as part of a fund raising effort. These have all been carefully designed by some pretty big names including the likes of Sir Quentin Blake, Cath Kidston, One Direction's Zayn Malik, The Beano and TV's Harry Hill!
Gromit Unleashed, which has been organised by Aardman Animations and the Bristol Children's Hospital charity - Wallace & Gromit's Grant Appeal - will run for just 10 weeks. These amazing sculptures have been sponsored by many local businesses and will be auctioned off after the event on October 3rd to raise money for the Children's Hospital. Much like the gorilla statues in 2011 which raised about £500,000 for charity, we really hope to see even more interest and are so pleased to see the cheeky chappies around the city every day.
I even get to walk past this amazing one every day at Temple Meads train station. Always makes me smile...
Nick Park, creator of the Oscar-winning animated characters said: "To see him this massive is incredible. I always thought Gromit would make it big, but not like this,""I was quite worried, because I'm quite fussy about Gromit, and I didn't know if he would make a very good blank canvas for the artists to work on. But I think I am more just honoured that he is being used."
Happy Birthday to the Italian Stallion

Holy Moly! Inspired by one of the greatest hip hop acts ever, Run DMC, this Nun DMC offers a whole new take on the timeless rappers!
Snoop Dogg and the humble amphibian the frog come together on this funny Snoop Frogg design. Hip Hop to it, you wouldn't want to miss out on this cool tshirt!
This Beastie Soys tee just made us chuckle so much when we first saw it! Quite an unusual combo to say the least. So fight for your right, to be different!
