for the OH in the Orkney calendar. Yesterday saw the re-opening of Geri's Ice Cream parlour for the season. Of course we went; we never miss opening day if we're actually here on Orkney. Here's the photographic evidence.
The cone is mine; I can't really face the big sundae type things anymore except on very special occasions. It is a double scoop though; one of toffee fudge and one of vanilla honeycomb. The vile looking green sauce on the OH's concoction may give away that it is Chocolate Mint.
Before going to Geri's, we went to the cinema to see Dune 2. It's something over two years since we saw Dune, which was enjoyable in a crash bang wallop sort of a way although a lot of the time I couldn't tell who was who. Dune 2 was much better, as it wasn't so dark and as I more or less remembered who the main characters were and where they were placed in the plot I could sit back and let it wash over me. It's all bit fantasy cliche but the script was more or less OK, the acting was fine and the cinematography was lush. In a development which took us both by surprise I did actually enjoy this one more then the OH did. Who could have known?
Those ice creams look yummy!
