spatch passed his road test this afternoon with apposite and unplanned timing, since we are heading tomorrow to the foot of the Cape for a kind of reunion of one side of his family. I am hoping also for sea.
Aw, well done! I hope the trip goes well, and that there is plenty of sea. ♥
(Btw, yesterday, I went out and last thing was too tired to do anything sensible and so was idly doing some searching on the BNA even though I don't have a sub, just looking at results for reasons, but ended up trying Jeremy Northam, and though context is fuzzy from sometimes-garbled previews, it looks like post-drama school, he went to do rep in Sussex, but... I got this result from one of his earliest plays there: "Jeremy Northam appeared as a frustrated but adorable composer closely resembling Ivor Novello." He also had a stutter and played the piano; one of the other reviewers added he was "either an expert mime artist or a very competent keyboard player." It seems to have been a Tom Stoppard play, Rough Crossing set on a 1930s liner, hence the Novello thing, I think; the total garbled previews I got suggest that it may have been a deliberate choice to have characters look like 1930s stars.)
It also looks like there's a little interview from Suzanna Hamilton on Matty's escape, and that she was the one who was actually scared of heights. (I mean, I assume it must be that: she's talking about being carried by Jeremy Northam in a rooftop scene.)
I'll clearly have to snag some of those when I have a sub again, but I laughed aloud at two reviewers in 1987 going "he looks just like Ivor Novello!")

Thank you! It was exhausting, and the right thing to have done, and there was ocean.

I love the idea of him having an affinity for the role from the start. I wonder if he ever mentioned it around the time of Gosford Park.

You should! Although the Minoan sealstone ship is always relevant.

I wish you best luck with the recovery. ♥

Who knows? I didn't know what, exactly, I expected when I did that search, but it wasn't Ivor Novello 14 years pre-GP.

Much appreciated. Next up, my niece comes to town!

Thank you! And I have passed your congratulations on.

(You may decide whether to hear that in the inflections of Wayne & Garth, or some other accent. The enthusiasm, however, is non-negotiable.)

Understood in that spirit and enthusiastically transmitted on.

Thank you! Someone did bite my arm dramatically, but I was standing in Atlantic water at the time and could not much care.
