As Mulder might say: I WANT TO BELIEVE.

That, while its out already in the UK and US, we have to wait till the new year for My Week with Marilyn.

Knowing my local as well, they probably won't get it then.

Sorry to hear that.

He seemed like a really decent guy. If only more countries were led by creative writers and artists, instead of by jackass lawyers and pimp bankers.

I thought of you Katka when I saw it on the news last night.
Very sad.

Let's hope his legacy lives long.

The "new" Facebook layout.

"Friends" lists now seem to come in no particular order.
I mean, they used to be alphabetical of a sorts but now they're just all over the place.

How in the hell is anyone supposed to keep track of who they've checked out and who they haven't.

If they've a mind to of course.
I mean, not that I would ever, .....

[Ian]

I'm not keen on the "new" YouTube layout either. Seems very messy to me.

Never fix what wasn't broken.

Reverent minute of silence in the Czech Republic rang church bells and salvos of cannon
People in the Czech Republic on Friday at noon, a minute of silence to honor the memory of the deceased last Czechoslovak and first Czech president Vaclav Havel. Funeral time throughout the country supported the three-minute version of the state funeral of church bells.

One day all political leaders will be of this stature, or will be swiftly removed from public service.

I hope it comes soon.

A very moving clip Katka.
Thanks for putting it here for us to see.

My thoughts are with your country and all its people.

Holy snurkling furge, Caped Crusader.
How hot has it been?

Look, I'm sorry everyone else out there is freezing their arses off but since the middle of last week when it was a nice 30C, it's been climbing through the roof.
'Round 41C again today, and not much cooler forecast for tomorrow.

I'm sick of summer already.

[Ian]

Ditto.

And to top it off, some **** seems to have hacked my email and sent spam to people with my address.

Had a screaming match last night with that twat neighbour who thinks he can play loud music all the time. He was at it all day Saturday and all day Sunday, and Sunday night it was so loud I could not only hear it over the tv but it was actually scaring our dog (I think she thought it was thunder!). We had WORDS, which culminated in me saying I was calling the police because I'd just about had a f*****g enough of him.

20 seconds later he turned it off.

What a colossal WANKER.
