Thursday 18 November - Getting personal





11.11am, Driving back from our trip to Rügen (it was a whistlestop holiday, as we have soooo much to do before leaving Berlin next weekend). We set our alarms for 6am this morning (the snooze button quickly got pressed) but still managed an early start. We headed back to the beach in the daylight (still amazingly blustery – but look! The sea!) and then warmed up with coffee and croissants and cakes in a little bakery. At exactly 11.11am (as seen on the car clock!), we were about two-thirds of the way home, listening to a song by Stars on repeat. It's called Personal, and it was introduced to me by my friend Ruth. The lyrics are gorgeous and sad, and I just recently found a clip someone has put together of film clips with the song over the top. It's really beautiful; I especially love the clips at 1 min 20 and 2 min 30... Does anyone know what the films are?

  1. Glad you had fun. The one at 1:20 is Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. Half Nelson and Lost in Translation are in there too.
