Star Wars original theatrical versions and feeling great

Having recently watched the entire Star Wars on saga on Blu-Ray with all of Mr Lucas' special effects and additions , tidying up and generally meddling I had decided to set about getting hold of the Limited Edition versions of the original trilogy DVDs that came with the original theatrical versions as a bonus disc. The power of eBay made this possible:

A full set acquired we then embarked on a wonderful nostalgic journey. It was just like being a kid again and going to the cinema all those years ago! So nice to see things like Han Solo shooting first once again and no dodgy CGI Jabba The Hut in A New Hope and of course the Yub Nub song as part of the Ewok celebration at the end of Return Of The Jedi (shamefully stripped out from the latest Special Edition version and replaced with rubbish). If you are a fan of the Star Wars Universe and don't have the original theatrical editions then you should do yourself a favour and go out and get them. Much as I love what George has done to the films over the years you still can't beat going back to where it all began......

On a personal note I am pleased to report that following on from my blip on Wednesday I have bounced back good and strong and am now feeling great. KT has been in full effect since then and will be continuing to do so from now on in!
