2nd Annual Rollie Awards

Hello there and welcome to what you've been waiting all year for (all two of you that read this blog)...

THE 2ND ROLLIE AWARDS!!!!!!!!!!!

That's right ladies and gents, guys and girls, revel at the marvel, foam at the mouth, and get ready for the Rollie journey to begin!!

So we begin with the awards meal of course. After the rush of our first Rollie awards (we got to film 50 far quicker than we realised and didnt do much planning) we wanted the 2nd awards to be even bigger and better, with no less than a three course meal! The menu was something even the greatest chefs couldnt pull off:
Starter - Lake Placid soup with 'Croodons'
Main - Sinister Stir-fry (which was too gross to even include a picture below)
Dessert - Clockwork cake

As you can see we spent many hours finding 'fun' names for the food and cooking everything from scratch (the cooking is a lie. All hail Morrisons ready chopped veg and pre-baked cake)....

The critically acclaimed Rollie cake (In all good supermarkets now)

After the meal we had the awards - the main event - what we had waited weeks for with bated breath.

After the awards came the watching of the 100th film. This film needed to be special, something we both wanted to see so we decided on Shawshank Redemption. And what a brilliant choice, we could both see why it is rated so high in the IMDb top 250, it was truly marvelous (even though Ollie's DVD was a load of shit as per and stopped half way through meaning we had to find it online). 

Next came the Rollie Disco!!!!!! (yes we are nearly 18 and yes we did sit at home and make a spotify playlist for a disco then sit on the sofa and listen to it with excitement)

To conclude the evening we watched film no 101 and again we wanted something that would wow us. We watched Se7en, which we both really liked (we also really liked staring at Brad Pitt for 2 hours). Its a must watch thriller, with great twists and turns along the way and a brilliant cast.

So we come to the end of our Rollie Award journey, hope you stayed around to read. We are determined to make the next awards even bigger and better, and we hope we will have more people to share them with by then!
