Well this Camp Nano started the same as the other time I tried it, in that I didn’t do anything and although I knew I had to plan for it I haven’t done enough and now its upon me I am not ready and I don’t want to rush it. I’m also trying to get…
Warning spoilers may be ahead…. I went to see this film on Monday 27th Feb and watching the trailer beforehand I was expecting a shock horror type of film, I even thought from the trailers that there could be some alien overtones. I was wrong. The basic idea is a young executive is sent to…
