The Only Way is Up
All week the movie theatre with added character, Cinemac, is showing the curious Up (U), Disney/Pixar’s new comedy adventure. (see picture above, courtesy of www.cinemac.org)
A terrific family adventure with story, characterisation and inventive animation and old-fashioned values of clarity and simplicity: entertaining and visually dazzling, according to the Guardian. The Janes cried quite a lot at this one.
Mon, Tue, Thur and Fri at 3, 5.30 and 8pm; and at 2.30pm on Weds.

Heritage Centre, Roe Street, Macclesfield

Something else for the weekend?

Yes theres more... The loop is fanatical, whoops no, passionate about Childrens Art so we're heading to the Open day at the Heritage Centre today to have a look at the local schools art competition, and textile demonstrations too.
Hope to have a look at long last at the Journeys instalation at the Town Hall if we are quick.
I think we'll nip to Langley for their weekend of textiles at Doe Meadow house and at the Village hall too.
Maybe we'll have breakfast with the Sunday papers at the Waterside Cafe in Bollington whilst enjoying their current exhibition of unique textile/photographic images by Dandy Lewis.

Hope to see you there.
