Splash, 1984 Movie About a Mermaid in New York City.

Just watched an old favourite film of mine, Splash. A romantic comedy of a mermaid in New York City! Starring Tom Hanks and Daryl Hannah. Directed by Ron Howard. Made in 1984.

Hairstyles and clothes are a bit dated, but an entertaining film, with romance, humour and lots of filming of the streets, landmarks and buildings of NYC.

Food Donation, New York City's Food Bank.

After Thanksgiving spare a thought to the organisation 'Food Bank For New York City' that helped many people eat a good meal on Thanksgiving day. Take a look at what is achieved and see the work they do on video's posted on their website....
