Friday 26
Go to Stafford on 5.20 train
A train got derailed at Bootle (one of the train stops between Southport and Liverpool )
Left college at 3.00
Went to Binns for a coffee with Cheryl
Train = late
Left Cheryl at 7.00
Sam was waiting for me = very very cold
Went to the Swan & the Woolpack
Sam gave me a Barry White single (still got it!!)
Like all Teen's I loved going to the cinema/ pictures/ flicks, still do. I was looking to see what was showing in 1979 ...... many have be saying to myself 'it is never that old?' but they are! For instance 10 & Bo Derek with her plaited hair (as well a figure to die for)
Other classics wereThe China Syndrome what a thriller of the time
Clint Eastwood in the excellent Escape from Alcatraz
The weepy Kramer v Kramer
The Life of Brian classic lines such as Brian's Mum 'he's not the Messiah. He's a very naughty boy!' - superb comedy. It was on the telly over Christmas and it still makes me laugh.
Check out the quotes here)
Apocalypse Now a great film & soundtrack

I still haven't seen 'The Life of Brian' - what are the chances. Got it on DVD as well - will watch it one day though - promise
..... and I saw the original stage production of 'Hair' - very disappointing - couldn't see a thing [or things]
Oh you simply have to watch it ... it is wacky, completely bonkers British humour.
I wasn't allowed to go and see Hair, my mum said it was 'that film full of naked people!!' I did see it on video some years ago but wasn't really that impressed .... may have to revisit
Kramer vs Kramer was a film I couldn't watch for years. I split form J's father when he was a baby and foolishly allowed them to go on holiday together a year later.
he took him to perth and refused to give him back. it took me 6 hysterical weeks of legal wrangling before I was able to snatch him up and make a run for the airport
Woah, that's a weird coincidence ... I was listening to Barry White just this afternoon ...
And I did love Dudley Moore in '10' even though my mother wouldn't let me have Bo Derek hair.
The horror... the horror...
I lovethe smell of napalm in the morning! It's one of my favorite movie lines from one of my favorite movies!
but Alien is one of the scariest movies ever made--hands down!
Say, when did Star Wars come out?
Wow NM I can quite imagine that K v K was not the film top watch then ...... you certainly have had some 'stuff' happen in your life x
tNb you can't beat a bit of Barry the Walrus of Lurrrve!!!
We plaited out own Bo hair but you can guess it looked nothing like it lol
Great line CGB lol
Star Wars was 1977 wasn't it? I thought it was it's 30 year anniversary last year??????
