Crying infront of strangers...

It's ok guys I didn't have a breakdown on the high street infront of loads of people. 

What I did do was something which was most amazing and I have always wanted to do. 

I went to a Drive-in cinema. The real deal. Massive screen. In your car. Eating popcorn. Freaking amazing!!

ItIsOn is a company which is on the same lines as Groupon except its only for deals in Scotland and I find the deals way better in terms of its all top hotels/restaurants/events you have heard of and perhaps already go to. Occasionally they host their own events and deals and this was one of them. 

It took place in a field right next to Edinburgh airport so provided the best backdrop for the other film showing available (Top Gun). I won the film choice though between me and my BF and The Notebook won. *hurray for Ryan*. they had various showings of each over the weekend and marketed it as Valentines date kinda thing. 

It was so well organised and efficient. We drove in with almost no queuing (considering the volume of cars there) and received a valentines card from Gosling *it was real, don't ruin this for me* and a car window sticker. There was an area selling pizzas, nachos, drinks and snacks but we went to tescos beforehand and purchased a mountain of snacks.

We tuned our car radio to the station they gave us and we got the volume right in our car so we didn't have to compete with others being noisy or whatever. 

Seat back. Blanket out. Sweets opened. Watching the notebook. I was in heaven.

I loved it so much and really hope they make it a regular occurrence as I would go every time. It's way more fun than a conventional cinema where you have to be shhh and try hard not to make a noise opening your sweets. 

Oh and "crying infront of strangers"? The cars are close enough to see inside each other's and if the guy looked in my car at the end of the film he would have seen me comforting a massive soggy tissue. I'm sorry but it's sad ok!! 

Anybody experienced an outdoor drivein cinema? Is a thing from the past about to become a thing of the future?
