    Right his Holiness has surfaced again as he has something to plug...
    Had a quick peruse of the trailer looks rather good.
    His holiness doing what he does best ie checks his watch and says 'right' a lot.
    The kids in the movie are all straight from drama school which is of course fare enough. Cad would just like to point out to the rest of the world watching the film, that these types of children have not existed in Britain since 1955...
    That aside it looks very funny and Cad for one will be off to see it in November.

    Typical school kids 2010.

    Uh, Cad? "That type of kid" is in a film set in South Africa in 1990.

    They all must have emigrated, and stayed there to bring up their kids.

    And I thought this was going to be a riveting topic about looking at our watches.

    I'm so disappointed.

    I was going to thrill all of you by disclosing that I stare at my watch at least 10 minutes a day.

    I also stare at the little clock on the bottom right corner of my computer monitor at least 25 minutes a day.

    Then there's the large clock on my wall at home, for which the battery expired at least five years ago. It still gets me to glance at it around a minute a day. It could be more, except that it isn't working so I have to guess how long I stare at it.

    Then there's that blinking clock radio in the kitchen. The power went out a month ago and it's been like that ever since. Being as it's located over the stove, some goo must have gotten in the time-setting buttons so they're stuck, and I can't reset the time.

    12:00 blink blink blink blink.

    There's probably some other watch or clock whose tales of being observed I could excite you with, but I see it's 7:52 p.m. by my trusty VCR clock (yes, I still have a VCR) which means I should get going if I want to catch that movie at 8 o'clock that I don't want to miss.

    You guessed it: A Clockwork Orange.

Dust off your zoot suit, put on your dancing shoes, healthy dollop of Brylcreem (its a hair product if you Americans are starting to wonder where Cad is going with this)Fresh bunch of flowers, always plenty at the cemetery, remember to remove the condolences card... Straight round to Zeldas have a fiddle with her snooze button... Bobs your uncle, in like flinn!

    Cad, considering your twitter profile pic, I'd have guessed you were a Dapper-Dan man! :bigsmile:

    I'm reasonably good at geography, even though I'm American. I at least know where most things are in Europe, North America, and South America. Bet I could get more than 50% of Asia on a map with boundaries but no country names. But I'm hopeless with Africa. All those tiny countries on the west coast--I can never remember the names, let alone which is which.

    You will have to come to London or Hull, Brighton or BATHE, Cad. Sis, Fan and I were taught to NEVER chase a man(sic)!!!
