Cabin fever on the Isle of Man is setting in. The limited selection available on the after hours hotel menu has been consumed one too many times. Restaurants in walking distance have been frequented on more than couple of occasions and the Douglas High Street at a slow pace ends with in 10 minutes. Oh sweet mercy we have two more weeks to go. A trip to Marks and Spencers is a highlight if you actually make the 5pm closing time.
I’m finding that being in studio on continuous days for 6 days per week leads to a mass consumption of tea & biscuits. In fact inhaling any sugar-laden treat to keep the warm lights from putting you in to a drooling slumber between camera set-ups is a fundamental film making technique. Especially now we’re mid shoot and fatigue comes in waves.

Gee. Too bad I'm not over there I could've thrown some prawns on the Barbie for the cast and crew. Really, I wouldn't mind.

As an Islander I was disappointed to read of your desperation to get off 'the rock'.I appreciate you probably have limited time between filming to explore,but I do feel it's a shame that your experience of working here is marred by being based in Douglas - not exactly the IOM's highlight!If you get the chance there are many great places to eat,drink and shop all over our beautiful Island - you just have to have a spirit of adventure and break away from the mindset that it's only good if it's convenient or trendy.I have lived in the States and all over the UK but the IOM just draws me back.If it all gets too much for you just remember the tax breaks!!!

Thanks so much for the lovely blogs. Some of us were wondering, we are big Renee fans and we know she has a birthday coming up later this month. We wanted to send a card with birthday wishes to her but have no idea where to send it. Could you be of any help? It would be GREATLY appreciated.

Not long to RZ's Birthday. Just a couple of weeks.
My dearest and most favourite Blogger, can you wish a good one from her fans at IMDb?
Does anyone read these posts besides us?
