This month’s showing at the cinema in the Memorial Hall was The Bourne Ultimatum.  It was brilliant – fast action, with each camera shot barely lasting more than a couple of seconds.  Jason Bourne took on the might of the secret “intelligence” service of the USA & totally confused & dumbfounded them.   My personal opinion is that there is definitely another opening for a 4th film – he never died, did he?

Thank you to Martin & Arnold for their ongoing work & thanks to the tea ladies for the half time refreshments.
