PPS. Actually, the more I read about the film, the more ridiculous it seems

I want to see it

PS. The more I look at that poster, the more ridiculous it seems

Nice one, FF

Queen Kong, sadly lacking Fay Wray...

It certainly is - part DIck Dastardly, and part Asterix character, but probably neither

Yes! Not Asterix, perhaps, but I feel like it might originate from the continent? Grrr... it's also putting me in mind of something we may have seen on Jackanory?

I'm pretty sure it's not before my time, but I still can't work it out

It's a puzzler, isn't it? It seems familiar and yet...

Do you recognize the profile pic as a matter of interest? Before your time, I think (because almost before mine.)

I feel like I should, Rachel, but I don't... or can't place it! Has as an early '70s look to it, but... nope, still struggling!

Did I mention The Unlikely Escape of Uriah Heep by H.G. Parry btw? That was fun too. Not a literary thing but a good read. No, I haven't heard of that, Rachel. I'll look it up, thanks ;)? I (re)began The Executioner's Song on a work break yesterday. It's compelling but I don't know that I'll finish...

Welcome from me too, doogsrox, and well done on reaching day 2 ;)? There's loads of friendly advice and encouragement here so, as Trojan says, do make the most of the support, both here and wherever available. I'm glad you've also found the First 7 Days thread - that's a great place to start! Best w...

Google hasn't failed me... Hell Comes to Frogtown. What's not to love about movies featuring mutant amphibians?

Just started Louise Doughty's Platform Seven as recommended by you, Jjjj...

Oh, I hope you enjoy it, Rachel! I'm nervous now!

Early Riser looks really good! I should look for that as most of my recent reads have been non-fiction.

or Dumbo

Talking of which, does The Elephant Man count?

Or: The Eagle Has Landed

I'm playing a bit hard and fast with the rules here, I admit!

On the other hand, back to Weetabix.......butter and sliced banana with W/B is absolutely gorgeous Ooooh! I never thought of putting banana with it, TC! That sounds great! Got to admit, I haven't had my Weetabix for a very long time. I think I'll need to rectify this very soon ;)? hqdefault.jpg

I've just finished Touching the Void by Joe Simpson, which is an enthralling true tale of survival - perfect for all armchair mountaineers such as myself, although it is incredibly harrowing at times and not for the squeamish. I'd like see the docu-drama. I have Ghostland by Edward Parnell to look f...

Excellent, Action! I love all that positivity! That was quite an all-star episode, looking at the credits

Hop!
