When the title...says too much!
TV titles issue...
Here's another thoughts on TV post!
Spoilers involved...Recently, I have watched two shows where the titles gave away what was going to happen before even watching! What's the point of that?
The first: Too Good To Be True was just that and the second, Love Rat meant that I guessed - even though obvious - what was about to happen and then, by the end of episode 3, had a feeling that there was going to be a twist and make the title have two purposes - which it did. Not only was the woman fooled by the man that she though was wooing her, but her ex turned out to be a rat too.
With my own writing, I spend a long time thinking of a careful and suitable title. Yes, these seem to have done the opposite - a quick 'does what is says on the tin' and that's that. I decided to avoid this week's offering Coma (despite having enjoyed these two shows at times for various reasons - casting choices, filming locations...adverts - aka not a whole hour of viewing - and other such reasons). Plus, I saw an advert for what happens that didn't just spell it out, it SHOWED it. So, what's the point?!
Thoughts...?

Squelch!
"I nearly lost my trainer!"
Last week, on - what started out as a sunny afternoon - my friend, X, and I decided to meet up and go for a walk.
It wasn't long before the sun disappeared - typical.
We carried on walking and chatting, admiring houses on the way and then turned into the field behind our houses to make our way back.
Remembering the middle path had been quite muddy the other week, we picked a different one. Well, this was worse... We squelched into the mud like pigs and before long we both realised - and said aloud at the same time - that we could feel the mud pulling us downwards!
"I nearly lost my trainer!" X exclaimed as she picked her foot up, only for her trainer to try and stay in the mud.
"I'm sinking!" came my reply.
Somehow, we made it through without the loss of a trainer or getting stuck!
Now, you might think that this was quite a calm adventure compared to the chaos we usually get ourselves into... Well, that's because I haven't told you about what happened first!
At the moment, X has the photographic evidence of what we found, and we are going to do some further 'investigating' so check back here next week to read all about it...
