March Monthly News

Welcome to the March edition of the monthly news!
We finally came out of lockdown and moved into the red zone. That means we can do little things for fun, such as visiting the local park and tropical greenhouse. I went to see the Corpse Flower that had bloomed, but when I got there it had wilted already. BOO!
Still a very interesting sight to behold, without the rotten smell.

The Friday 56 turned 10!!! We had a celebration for the participants. Sorry, if you missed out! Hopefully I'll still be running it 10 more years from now! Congrats to Billy for winning the giveaway!
If you haven't taken part, it's a weekly book meme where you share a snippet from Page 56 or 56% on your ebook. We have a linky every week for visiting others. I do hope to see you join in on Friday!

We're back under lockdown. Fun!
We've come out and back in all in this month. Geez already!

My son turned 26 yesterday, although it was pretty uneventful thanks to COVID and the lockdown. My hubby's birthday is in 2 weeks and it will be the same. Uneventful.
Have you had to celebrate any events?

    News of the World looks really good. I've been debating whether or not to read the book first or just watch the movie! I know if I watch I may not want to read the book or I'll put it off. Maybe I'll decide this summer...

    Dear Martin has been on my TBR as well. Glad it's a good one!

    Thank you for the Amazon gift card!

    I watched News of the World last week and liked it.

    I own all of the Anne of Green Gables books but haven't gotten around to reading them.

    Congratulations on the Friday56 turning 10! That is awesome. I'm sorry about the in and out and in again of lockdown. My area restrictions have been lifting ever so slowly and I keep wondering if we'll be going back in soon. It happened before . . . I hope you have a wonderful April, Freda!

Scooby Doo: The Sword And The Scoob

AVAILABLE ON DIGITAL NOW AND DVD MARCH 23! RATED F 72 minutes AMAZON An evil sorceress transports the gang back to the age chivalrous knights, spell-casting wizards, and fire-breathing dragons. While there, Shaggy unwittingly pulls out Excalibur from a nearby stone to cut a block of cheese and now no one is sure who the rightful ruler is. The legendary wizard, Merlin, appears and explains that the throne of Camelot must be determined through TRIAL BY COMBAT. Our heroes pull out all the stops to try and win the tournament, break the witch's hold on King Arthur, and find a way back to the present in this legendary story of Scooby Doo in King Arthur's Court. REVIEW: It was weird starting off with a He-Man lookalike, Thunder the Barabarian), until I realized a character from the film was watching the cartoon in the airplane. Still, it was kind of cool to reminice about two cartoons from my childhood. So many great actors bring the film to life! What a fun story it was too! Although
