A tadge of indigestion

Last night, the conclusion of week 24, we could actually see Toblet kicking, punching and wriggling - strange ripples on the surface of Priti's bump. Even though it is very, very peculiar, she's not too freaked by it.

Every time I put my hand on the bump, the little bugger stops kicking. When I do feel it, it makes it very real, much easier to visualise that inside there is a baby cooking, waiting to pop out.

Looking at the bubbling belly, I thought it wise not to mention the original Alien flick with John Hurt experiencing a tadge of indigestion. (Ian Holm, one of the most watchable film actors ever, was also in Alien - and he seems to like sci-fi, with excellent performances in Time Bandits and The Fifth Element. Ian Holm is highly rated and yet is still hugely underrated, if you follow me, as is the late, great Ian Bannen, another giant favourite of mine.)
