Not a female director but at least a female lead, “The quick and the dead” was pretty good.

PR is critical for me. Everyone’s vote counting would be a great way forward.

Another good Earp one as far as I can remember was “Hour of the gun” with James Garner playing Earp and Jason Robards – always superb – playing Holiday with Robert Ryan as Clanton. Haven’t seen it for years but I […]

The Ken Burns series on the Civil War on Netflix is fantastic.

Doesn’t Democrat come from the civil war where it essentially referred to the democratic right to self determination eg to have slaves etc. Nice.

There was a good docudrama about Earp and especially the Gunfight at the OK Corral on one of the Freeview channels. I had a bit of an obsession about it a year or so ago and watched a few of the films and the doc. […]

C’est formidable.

I’m rewatching the current series a few episodes behind but when I’ve finished I think I’ll do the lot again. I think I found it on the Beeb on series 2 or 3 but AFAIKR they showed them in the wrong order to […]

Let’s not forget”The WIld Bunch”, and a lost cult classic “The Five Man Army” which I remember with great fondness as I went for my birthday party as a nipper, high on ice cream soda, cake and lots of sweets.

Excellent!

I always assumed, based on no info whatsoever, that this act was Sonny with his less famous brother. You learn something new every day.

Yes another classic. Clint never better. Well, “Pale Rider” was bloody good too.

High Noon is brilliant. The way the town people slowly desert him and leave him to his fate. Superb.

I recently rewatched “The good, the bad and the ugly” which is a masterpiece and as brilliant as ever. I agree with Paul Was, “Silverado” is s fine more recent Western.

This just in @niallb – I booked and was ready to go but I just had an email to say it’s cancelled “for technical reasons”. Never know a film be cancelled before! WTAF.

What I’ve seen people do is screw a 2×1 to the wall (or glue etc) and mount the hangers on that. Means you have a little more scope to drill where the wall cooperates.

The boy wants a games capable lappy but with an eye on the dosh what’s a good option? He’ll need one for 6th form next year anyway so I can’t delay for ever.

Glad it’s not just me then.

I don’t have enough walls. I have 5 guitars on a stage stand, 6 on the walls and one on a normal guitar stand. Mrs. T says it’s too many guitars, not too few walls.
