  • I can't recall seeing many folks out and about wearing balaclavas. To the best of my knowledge, neither have I witnessed any beekeepers (in full outfit) wandering the streets.

  • I remember asking my niece if she knew about Dunkirk. She replied saying that it was the place where a madman went on the rampage and shot some schoolchildren. I corrected her by informing her that she was speaking about Dunblane. She had never hear…

  • I grew up in the company of a lot of WW2 veterans. my dad was one but, like most, he never spoke about his experiences. What riles me up is that if we as a species don't learn from the mistakes and issues which led us to war, we are destined to repe…

  • My best regards to you both. I used to know someone with CP, he was one of the most self motivated people I have ever come across. I do know that he started his own small business as a market trader and had ambitions to eventually own a chain of sho…

  • I'm a big WW2 history buff. I look forward to contributing to the thread. Speaking of ignorance - anyone remember the story about the survey which was carried out a couple of years ago. People were asked who Churchill was - the overwhelming respo…

  • Perhaps a daft question, but for those who have been there, are the outside areas of Piz Gloria identifiable from the film? (I'm think thing the curling game scene?)

  • I don't know in this particular instance, but I've seen so many film actors doing this over the years that perhaps it may be a standard device to help with difficult to remember lines?

  • 'Villain' starring Richard Burton. An awful take on a gangster movie. I guess it was shocking for it's time but it hasn't aged well. The only thing that shocked me was that I stayed up 'til 2am watching it!
