    Ideas for free and inexpensive dates.

    I'd just like to ressurect this thread by championing this particular venue for dates. In July I took a girl there - just as friends as we were both on the back end of messy break ups so romance wasn't on the agenda. Then at the end of November our friendship clicked into romance and we're...

    LIVE FREE, DIE HARD -Spoilers-

    I spent Friday preparing for Die Hard 4.0 (crap UK/Europe title - much prefer the US one) watching Die Hard 1 & 2. Why? Well I'm quite a sad geeky chap who likes to immerse himself into things. I digress, the first two films are about an average guy getting caught up in something very big...

    A Lot o' Mottos: What are your words to live by?

    A Portuguese friend and I swear by this for each other: "Nos somos para sempre" It means "We Are Forever". I only apply it to her and I. But I do like Desmond Llewellyn's final line in a Bond film: "Always have an escape plan." It always works.

    Have You Ever Met A Movie/TV Star or Celebrity?

    I met these two famous chaps a couple of weeks ago... Can anyone guess who they are?

    Old smells, that immeditately transport you back in time?

    There's a particular brand of detergent which always reminds me of nursery school.

    The Single & Ridiculously Good-Lookin' Room

    Surely being English and single goes a long way on this thread...??? I believe I'm classed as ridiculous looking...

    Hand gun ownership in the U.S.

    Being English, law abiding people have to defend themselves with harsh language and the threat of writing a letter to their Member Of Parliament. The criminals reply with cordite. Aside from that, I used to do clay pigeon shooting with my dad and we own a few air rifles. The current rules in...

    Show us your vehicles

    Fraid not. It was on the far bank so I'm not even sure where it actually was. Behind it was a great big Scammell truck too.

    Show us your vehicles

    I took a walk along the canal to Limehouse last weekend and came across this abandoned gem: Poor thing.

    Present Day Silent Movies

    This is a bit of a coincidence. I've only just received a copy of C-o-C on DVD. I didn't think to mention it on the Lounge. I didn't really know what to expect from it - obviously I knew it was silent but didn't know how far the makers would go technology wise. Anyway it was very...

    Ideas for free and inexpensive dates.

    If you're ever in London go to the Royal College Of Surgeons. The Hunterton museum is packed with all sorts of glorious oddities.

    A Dream That Was Like A Movie

    Recently I had one of my cinematic dreams. I woke up twice during it and returned to it when I fell back asleep. A woman moves into a new house on a housing estate. It feels like America - some suburb somewhere. She notices a neighbour across the street staring at her all the time (I also...

    Spider-Man 3

    I saw it and really found it bloated and far too long. What made this worse was the decision by parents to take 5 year olds in to see it. In the UK it is rated 12A. The 2hrs 20mins was more than they could stand (or sit). Even worse was a parent's decision to bring their turette suffering...

    How we dress and what we drive

    This is Fenella. She's an MG ZR 160. Very quick. Firm ride and has quite a grunt.

    What are you listening to?

    Having listened to the rest of the CD I'm quite disappointed. Candyman was the high point but you're right - it isn't a lot different from anything out there. To cheer myself up I've started listening to Portishead. Now that's original.

    The Hardest Noir You've Ever Witnessed

    Calling someone a heal is my favourite American phrase.

    What are you listening to?

    I have a confession. I've done something that I can hardly believe. Ladies and gentlemen of the lounge. I have purchased a Christina Aguilera album. To my credit though it is the Back To Basics double with the infamous "Candyman". CD1 is a bit pants though at the moment.

    5000 loungemembers!!!

    Awful news. I'm leaving as I only join exclusive forums. I'm English and therefore can't celebrate such things. But well done and have a firm handshake.
