What I want to say, “I am going to smash that phone and make you eat the pieces.” What I do say, “You are very childish. I want you to know that.”

The last bit about unwanted guests reminded me of an Oscar Wilde line. Someone said to him thar they went past his house the night before and Oscar replied, “Thank you very much”

Trip Advisor uses a clearly labeled AI summary of their hotel reviews on the first page of each hotel. They are adequate, there is no spark to them, nothing makes you think “Wow! I’d like to stay there.” This is […]

The reactions of the war movies may interest some of you since a lot of us have seen them all. The young WW2 fan (born 1985 if I recall correctly) LOVED Das Boot, had never heard of it, wasn’t overly keen to see a […]

Stories? You want stories? The lending of Risky Business came about because we were inspecting a car that was half submerged in Port Phillip Bay. When I saw it I naturally said, “Who’s the U-boat commander?” The […]

It’s a funny old world. Like everyone else on this site I could give a top of my head potted history of every act on that list with the exception of Rush who I have never knowingly heard a single song by.

I’ve seen a bunch of horror movies in the cinema fairly recently, The First Omen, Longlegs, A Quiet Place Day One, Alien Romulus and Abigail is the only one I would watch again, or ever recommend to others. It’s […]

My local Savers store (huge second hand outlet) played to my delight over their speakers Roadrunner by the Modern Lovers.

In “Dang Me” Roger Miller pronounces “syrup” as “surple” to make this bit rhyme… Roses are red and violets are purple Sugar is sweet and so is maple syrup
