Journal The Lord of the Rings

The 3rd of the Lord of the Rings trilogy The Return of the King world premiered today in Wellington.

The Return of the King is said by film industry insiders to be the best of the trilogy. I wonder if it will not only be nominated for an Oscar as the other were but this time Peter Jackson will take an Oscar? Or is Hollywood still a closed shop to viewed "upstarts"?

Wellington... Middle earth is now known as Wellywood.

Yesterday

Picked more Tangelos, juiced enough for 3 litres of juice and a glass left over. I doubt we will be able to use them all up before they deteriorate. We have taken only the best fruit so far from the top of the trees now 15ft. up. We have a photo of Mrs. Vicky Irving up the ladder during a visit some years ago.
