Sioned & myself went off to see Hot Fuzz tonight at the cinema. It's been ages (well before Christmas) since we both we to see a fillum, so this was something vaguely different. Very good film, in a sit back and veg out way. Enjoyable, if only for the idea that they had to find a small quiet village somewhere that'd let them do handbrake turns in a Subaru.
Got out to the car after the cinema and it wasn't happy. It started, but was doing odd things at idle. Gave it a thrash up the A55 for a couple of junctions (and subsequently found it can do 65 in second), but it seemed ok. Switched the engine off after pulling off said road, started it again, and it's still not happy. Hm. Got it home, did the same (engine off, back on again) and all is fine. There was a brief smell of petrol in the car, so it's possible that Shell sold me something sub-standard, or the car was just having a bit of a strop about something. Either way, I'll keep an eye.
In other news, I decided yesterday to migrate one of my DSLs to one of Zen's DSLMax products. I'd previously been against this as I wasn't (and to some extent, still don't) like DSLMax for various reasons, but since the way the line is used probably lends itself well to it, I took a jump. I have to admit, it's good. Very good. Very fast at what it does. I'm not totally around to it yet - I'll be keeping an eye on how things pan out on the line for a while yet.
