Unfortunately the Scunthorpe Vue cinema which has free parking and we have free tickets hasn't got Mr Turner on its schedule, the Odeon in Lincoln has very expensive parking so we decided to go the <a title="Louth Cinema" href="http://bookings.parkwaycinemas.co.uk/louth/visMovies.aspx?CinemaID=1&amp;AspxAutoDetectCookieSupport=1" target="_blank">Parkway in Louth</a>. This is a small independent cinema that was originally a theatre and the seating is not the most comfortable, in fact the leg room is so short it is quite painful.

We enjoyed the film, the cinematography was superb and a scenic match for Turner's paintings. He was a curmudgeonly character and a man of few words but many grunts however his work was pure genius. He suffered for his art and unfortunately many of those nearest to him also suffered his emotional indifference.

After the film we walked across town to <a title="Joseph Morton - Wetherspoons" href="http://www.jdwetherspoon.co.uk/home/pubs/the-joseph-morton" target="_blank">The Joseph Morton pub (Wetherspoons)</a> for dinner and we were dragged (struggling and screaming) into a pub quiz which was incredibly easy, apart from the picture round where we couldn't identify two of the photos. We tied for first place and shared the prize money. It was a very good night out.
