Ooops, looks like I didn't finish that sentence. I meant to write "in the late 70s" or something like that. - Will edit that in a bit. I saw Cinderella at a cinema in my hometown and it being my first visit (I must have been 4 or 5) I don't remember much of it, just the huge flight of stairs in the palace. I believe that my other memories from the film are from later encounters. The whole idea of sitting in a huge room in total darkness with a bunch of other people and the huge colour screen fascinated me. We only had a tiny black-and-white tv at home, so that was a revelation for me. I loved the seats and the whole plushy interior.
Those European boots are expensive over here, but not quite as expensive as overseas. When my hostdad from NZ was here, a pair of Meindl boots was his most-loved souvenir - and we even got them in the sale. I think he spent about a third of what he would have spent downunder.
