Pitt Fall

The Scottish television news is all very excited about the Brad Pitt zombie film "World War Z" which is being filmed in and around George Square in Glasgow. Apparently Glasgow bears a close resemblance to a post-apocalyptic Philadelphia. I'm not sure if that's a compliment! So the street signs have all been changed to American ones, there are American flags hanging from buildings, American cars line the streets and even the street crossings have been repainted to the stripey American version. Today the man himself was in town, and there were lots of fans trying to get a glimpse of Brad. I won't be doing that, but I might have a look at the film set the next time I am in town, pedestrians are allowed there when filming isn't going on.
The pupils were back today, all looking very smart, it was nice to see them. The day went well until I fell off a chair which I didn't know was broken. It tipped forward as soon as I sat on it and I fell onto my hip and ended up flat on the floor. I have had some sore falls in my time, but this one took my breath away. Luckily only one pupil witnessed my downfall! My hip is still very sore, luckily I am well padded in that area so no serious damage I think. Davie is having an overnight at Stuart's and I am about to give Ally a lift to a party in Newton Mearns, so James and I will only have Jack for company tonight!
