Missed a private showing of the Oliver Stone film of Dubya’s life and times, set up by Number Two Son. Boo, hiss! I had to get back for a funeral. Mrs Demon and various friends attended. He tells me that I shall probably miss “Frost/Nixon”, because it will get pulled, as only 20 people turned up on the first night, as opposed to 300 for some Hollywood rubbish next door, and “Revolutionary Road” might not stay long either. What is wrong with these people? Got the novel from Waterstones, plus a copy of “Q & A”, Vikram Swarup’s original novel which became “Slumdog Millionaire”, so look forward to reading that.
