Then again, the music is already making me want to stab plastic knives in my ears. Shazam tells me it’s Leona Lewis. It’s too damn loud.
It’s not vile. And I’d compare the McMuffin favourably to an alleged Eggs Benedict I was once served in a (now-defunct) Bristol cafe/bar.
@iamTRA if this is a 100% increase in quality, I’m glad I didn’t try the McMuffin back then. Still, I’ve had worse.

@Kavey Witherspoon’s very good in Wild; I just seem to need to be in exactly the right mood to watch any new (to me) films at the mo.
@Kavey Last was _Wild_; this one’s _Gravity_.
Yet again, I start watching a film at long last, get five minutes in and pause it to decide if I can cope with it. Last one took a month.
