Recovering

We are slowly recovering from last nights horrible events (both us and the cat). Jim seems to be doing a lot better, although we have now closed the doors to both bedrooms, just in case. We decided to be cultural today, and went to the British Museum to see their newly opened Ancient Near East collections (Assyrian and Egyptian art). Were very impressed with the Assyrian wall reliefs, and also looked at an exhibition on 'life and death' in different cultures. As always, though, the museum is far too big, and there's never enough time to see it all. But that's partly why it's one of my favourite museums - there's always something new to discover and explore!

We also managed to stop by one of the few Zavvi stores that is still open, and made a few bargains on the way home. A CD and six movies came to £23, which seems quite reasonable. Now we're about to snuggle up on the sofa to watch the first one - Cloverfield. Perfect ending to the weekend, especially since it is now snowing (!) outside our windows...
