If Icelandic wasn’t my first language, I’d probably never have wanted to learn it – way too much grammar for my liking (it’s on par with, if not worse than, German).

Alas, not sure. I heard that it wasn’t on either from another colleague who called in later, and can only assume that there was a power cut at some point, as it had been switched on. The computer pieces were auto starting, so they would have come back on, but mine looked suspiciously like it had really seriously reset itself when I came to take it down.

You can see an approximation of it here anyway –

i.e. you see the picture, you see the picture with a person in front of it on the telly, but that someone was there yesterday…

Glad you came in the end anyway – you were lucky to have seen the full show that day – as you saw, the others had to take theirs down very early!

As such it may well be that you could see the film without affecting your perception of the book at all?

Then you could read the book anytime?

Are you sure Adaptation is completley gone? It might still run at the Prince Charles cinema? I think we might still have it up here, we did last month, but there we are! 🙂
