You must watch it summer, it's so good, you will be glad you watched it. I don't know a single person who doesn't like that film. Excellent film. Xx

It seems to be little more than a lottery. I seem to be hearing about a spate of people dying recently who are much younger than me. That does make me particularly sad and seems almost unfair even if they are only acquaintances.
