Well having read the list, I've been doing some of those since I was a teenager. :mrgreen: I stopped listening to Radio 1 in 1993, the year it became New Lad FM. Never been one for Radio 2, I've listened to Radio 3 + 4 since I was young. Always been one for misplacing things, I've been regularly dri...

Well I was playing the 'Sat In Your Lap' video on youtube today and he ran away crying! :mrgreen: I told his mum on the phone about everything being amazing and wonderful in town, apparently she has taught him these words as a way of trying to get him to stop swearing before he starts nursery. :shoc...

My grandson seems to be practising superlatives at the moment. Just been out into town with him and everything was either 'fantastic', 'amazing' or 'wonderful'. My favourite thing he's saying now is when he goes for a wee wee - I'm not allowed to help him in any way because he's a big boy you know a...

I totally missed the whole thing, so glad sometimes that I don't have a telly now. :mrgreen: In far more important news this summer, A SCOT WON WIMBLEDON!!!!!!! I was working on that Sunday and had to follow it via the internet on my phone, but my daughter had recorded the match for me so I did get ...

Ooh god, things I remember on the telly .... one of my first memories is of it being on the news that The Beatles had split up. There were lots of grown ups in my house all seeming upset, it was obviously A VERY BAD THING that had happened and I was intrigued by the atmosphere. I remember watching i...

Looks like great fun, Dave, nice to see your son as well, crikey he's so big now!

Interesting read, quite telling in some parts. Her comments about the subconscious/unconscious are intriguing to me because that is an area of the creative mechanism I'm very absorbed by myself. It is a direct communication with aspects of yourself that you don't normally encounter in any other way....

Oh I didn't realise it was out on DVD! That's good news. *adds to list* I get nearly all my DVDs secondhand these days, either from charity shops or Amazon marketplace. The local Cancer Research shop here is awesome for DVDs, I've added dozens to my collection from there. Latest this week were The B...

Oh that annoys the hell out of me when I read it, anyone who has cats knows it's just not true. The difference between cats and dogs in that sense is that cats bond with one particular person in the family whereas dogs regard themselves as part of the 'pack' so are equally affectionate/loyal with ev...

WHAT IS BLU-RAY? *technophobe*

Is it out on normal DVD or just this new fangled format that I probably need to buy a new machine for?

She wishes! No amount of photoshopping could make her look like that. :mrgreen: The actress is called Rosalie Craig, she's a very good musical theatre actress apparently. There's some serious talent involved in The Light Princess, from National Theatre boss Nicholas Hytner to playwright Samuel Adams...

Oh Dave, I'm so sorry you've lost Tatty. [b)] It's amazing how much it feels like a member of the family is gone, when you've had an animal that long. She did jolly well though to get to that age, she was obviously well looked after. And at least she was in her own familiar surroundings at the end. ...

Thank you.

I think this is the sort of feel she's been going for with some of her album artwork in recent years, only the people at the National Theatre obviously know what they're doing. :mrgreen: The actress who will play the lead, and who appears in this poster, is a blonde in real life so I'm assuming it's...

Poster for the forthcoming Tori musical, The Light Princess, has appeared in the last couple of days:
