  1. Watched "Apocalypto" last night. Enjoyed it a lot more than I thought I would.
  2. I remember seeing him in an episode of "Who do you think you are". He came across as a fairly decent bloke, but I smiled at how much he really wanted to have some Irish roots. It felt like the entire episode was him desperately searching for just one of his ancestors to have come from Ireland. He clearly has a strong love of the country. Also there was his idea that gay marriage will lead to fathers marrying their sons to avoid inheritance tax. Good actor, though.
  3. Yes, I've persevered with it. Mainly in the hope of seeing Quinn just settling down with a nice girl.
  4. I could be wrong but I took it to mean that people who have been genuinely successful don't feel the need to post pictures of sunsets/rainbows/other such images which are accompanied with a sentimental/supposedly inspirational quote. Whereas those who do (or at least some) are either not as successful as they'd like to be or at the least insecure about their achievements.
  5. 40. Tried to do it geographically and missed a few London clubs, two in particular are rather shameful.
  6. Not sure. But I guarantee that the Brit awards will still be shit.
  7. Probably not what you were after Useless, but having done some research, there's this. I believe the location of the photograph was taken in a dark, dark town; in a dark, dark street; in a dark, dark house; down some dark, dark stairs; in a dark, dark cellar.
  8. Strictly speaking I didn't say human bones either. But yes you would have all the sea creatures and dino bones too. The human bones diagram would be the most interesting I think.
  9. So basically you'd like to know where all the skeletons are kept? How many bodies lost at sea, only a few skeletons in the South Pole etc. Got me wondering about it now.
  10. Been on the wind up about his wages I see. He really is trying his best to go down as the worst signing Villa made. He is of course completely within his right to answer back to his detractors on Twitter, they're welcome to each other. I just can't believe I would be on twitter if I was a footballer. Don't see the appeal. It reminds me of Peter Mannion in The Thick Of It complaining about his new blog he's been forced to have. "This is the shit room! You've opened the shit room door!"
  11. From what I've read it must have been a horrible experience, thankfully it looks like none of his family were hurt.
  12. Nick Love has got to be one of the worst directors ever. And I ain't muggin' you off neither, you muppet.
  13. There is nothing but tender love that radiates from within my gimp outfit, my sweet.
  14. "Ladies and Gentlemen, I think you'll agree that today has been very emotional, even the cake's in tiers." Terrible opening joke but I've seen it done at a wedding reception and it got a big laugh. Could have been the volume of prosecco consumed.
  15. Just watched the debut by Ridley Scott "The Duellists" for the first time. Basically Keith Carradine & Harvey Keitel fighting each other throughout the Napoleonic wars. Very authentic feeling film made even more interesting that it's based on a true story.
  16. It's been over ten years since Frasier ended and I still maintain a slight hope that I could be the love interest they never properly found for Roz in the series.
  17. Haha yeah, that quote is directly from Wernham Hogg, isn't it. I just don't remember him being like that at Swansea.
  18. Those Brenton quotes are great, I think he felt making statements like that appealed to the Liverpool fans, making it sound like the job was the biggest in the world. To be fair, that plane metaphor isn't too bad really. The others are truly cringeworthy. The 11 men v 10 men and a goal keeper is just bizarre.
  19. Still in my infancy here on VT so I'm being careful with my likes so I don't appear too loose and make everyone here think I'm easy. Plus I've accidentally hit "like" on a post and was too cowardly to retract it. Just on the Frasier front- Roz Doyle >>>>>>>>> Daphne Moon
  20. Stephen Graham played Billy Bremner in "The Damned United", he was also in "Tinker Tailor....". I also saw him in "Parade's End". But you're right Villa4europe, looking at his imdb he should be in a lot more things, terrific actor. sorry, I missed that you said "Tinker, Tailor..".
  21. Stephen Graham being brilliant in the final "This is England '90".
  22. In my experience, I find that any changes in myself have occurred naturally with age. Comparing myself with how I was when I was 22, I'm 10 years older, have a lot less hair and am still maintaining my robust doughy physique, but I'm a lot more confident in myself. Negative experiences have given me a slightly more toughened stance, a little bit more bullet proof. This occasionally comes across as confidence and as such women seem more receptive to it. Having said all that, I am single with nothing on the horizon and if I met someone i really liked I will inevitably find an entirely new way to mess things up.
  23. Released exactly 20 years (and 1 day) ago. First album I ever bought. Feeling old.
