Looking through the Sent Items folder in Outlook Express, I discovered I had copies of emails dating back to 2001. These include email invitations I’ve been sending out to friends for the Friday Night Freak Show. Movie night at our house has been going on prior to 2005, but back then I hadn't come up with the idea of advertising the lineup in advance.
Here’s a selection of some of the stuff we've watched, that maybe one day I’ll get around to posting thoughts on. They’re arranged by date and include dinner details and film titles.
