I would say that there's nothing in Avatar that was particularly more worrisome than aspects of Pirates or LotR. There's no torture, no rape... there's more language than I'm sure we used to get in what used to be PGs back in the day, but again no big deal. Actually, it's so much on a par, violence/language/sex style, with Transformers, you'd almost think that marketers wrote the scripts... Oh, wait...

There's a lot of people being shot... not in particularly gory fashion, but it is, notionally, a war-film, and I'd say that the depiction of violence lies somewhere between the Star Wars prequels and the Lord of the Rings.

P's 11 - he's possibly a little more worldly than his mum gives him credit for, and I possibly have too high an assessment of his maturity. He was certainly OK with it (but tellingly, he wasn't pleading with me to buy the DVD when we came out).

As for my classy tumble - the car that stopped was being driven by a woman I'm on waving terms with - we see each other when we're walking our respective hounds, and whilst I know the names of her two dogs, I don't actually know hers. I will say, though, that me having Mali has certainly made me more of a fixture in the community - plenty of people acknowledge us when we're both out, and many still do, and comment on Mali's absence, when it's just me. The back of my left hand took the brunt of the fall - before the padding on the motorcycle jacket that I wear for dog walking duties (it's the pocketses, see) absorbed the main impact. So yeah, fine - little stiff in the fingers, but that'll pass :-)
