The longer you animals bark, the colder your lunch gets....

Yesterday, Jeremy and I escaped for the evening!

Our friend Heidi kindly offered to babysit Mr Pickle so that we could go and watch The Goonies at the cinema.

We sneaked off at five o'clock and caught the train from behind the house. Having the train station two doors up is very handy. We travelled to Roma Street Station and walked to the cinema from there.

After grabbing a subway sandwich each we got to the cinema about 10 minutes before the film was about to start. We bought tickets and went into Screen 1. We were the only people in there.

Sadly, there was no balcony for Jeremy to climb up to and make fake puking noises from! Three minutes before the film was about to start two more people came in, they were very shocked to see us sat there.

At six o'clock the projectionist walked up the stairs to start the film rolling, the lights dimmed and the film began without trailers or adverts. We were very excited as the giant skull was projected onto the screen. It was at that point that we were expecting the flood of late comers, as is the norm in Indonesia. We weren't disappointed. A stream of four people rushed in, doubling the number of the audience!

We sat back and enjoyed the classic that is The Goonies. The truffle shuffle is a sight to behold on the big screen! Jeremy took some sneaky photos of the classic scenes for posterity and my blog. I will post them up when we have found the camera cable.
