Date Day

Had a nice day day on Saturday with E. Went to Norton Street, had lunch at a cafe, saw a movie, then had a bit of a browse in some book shops. Nice to spend some time alone.

We ended up seeing Brideshead Revisited. I'm still not entirely sure what I thought of it. It is very much about Catholicism and the oppression that is felt by different characters by their 'faith'. On one hand it was interesting, thought- provoking, well made, well acted. On the other it was kind of depressing and rough going. It depressed me that this sort of Christianity had so little to do with Jesus, and so much to do with guilt, and trying to be good enough for God to accept you.
