I was going to write something about lockdown and the virus and self isolation and all that stuff.
But I thought, no, I’ve had enough of that for the day. I’ve actually probably had enough of it to last the rest of my life but I’ll probably return to the subject in a few days.
Anyway, this is my Top Thirty. Breakfast at Tiffany’s was always going to be Number One. I love that movie so much that, on every visit I ever made to New York, I popped into the Fifth Avenue store. It’s currently closed for renovations so even if I could go to New York (my doctor won’t let me) I wouldn’t be going now!
