And Horrible Bosses 2 [2014] turned out to be alright as well. It only really suffered from being a sequel, the film formula being already known, that slight surprise was diminished. Nevertheless, there was enough in this film to make one chuckle. Another recommendation.
This could all be fixed with just a touch of decent management. Don't hate the player, hate the game! Is it Southern Rail down Soton way?
Southern rail checking tickets? They can't even get their guards to turn up for work, let alone walk the length of the train. I used to catch the Southern train out of Eastleigh, but that service seems to have died a slow and painful death and and then vanished from the timetable altogether, i think it goes via Fareham or something now. Now its all crowded south west trains. from Eastleigh to Southampton.
I used to see this on a regular basis when I spent a year doing roaming the New Forest by rail and bus around 2013. My experience was if a well dressed chap looked concerned and offered to buy a ticket that was ok, if you were a young scruff the penalty slip was yours! Mind you when I lived at the Beaulieu Rd Hotel in 1981 I'd catch the train from there to Millbrook Rd Station early each morning for work. No station staff, no ticket machines and rarely would you find someone on the train to pay so free transport for me
I was laughing before I opened the link, because I could remember how funny it was, when first seeing it. Hilarious.
The other every day thing is that the quality of life improves dramatically when you stop smoking. Some people will state that as soon as they stopped, their sense of this and that returned immediately. For others it is more gradual. However, it does happen to a certain noticeable effect for everybody who formerly smoked. There are no unique surviving former smokers out there whose lives were not improved by not smoking. It is known that pollution damages and kills. So call smoking 'personal pollution' because that is exactly what it is. A former smoker.
Almost the same here. My BBC Weather phone app has been wrong, wrong, wrong, even when it changes its great big mind in Bracknell, it's still wrong, on the whole. On the other hand, my three barometers, one electronic, two old school [pressure/vacuum, and spring and tap-tap from me] have all been deadly accurate, down to details. Bracknell still can't reliably forecast the Southampton microclimate. Strange that they get it almost unerringly right in the shipping forecast for the area though. You'd think the land folks would have a quick peek at the coastal pepys' workings. Same computer.
Salcombe, Devon. We've been in a farmhouse about 15 miles down the coast from here, surrounded by fields.
I don't recall having visited it before. Truly stunning. I'll be making a return trip, probably in winter time.
It is. Trouble is, my heart always wants to be just that little bit further west into Cornwall. Devon would be the most wonderful county... if it wasn't for Cornwall.
And I finally remembered I watched Snowden [2015] the other night. Superb, unmissable. If you haven't seen it, do. The acting performances are excellent throughout just for starters, and the story is true, of course. Having said all that, it's not for everybody. However, it would educate anyone who sees it. Bar the people responsible for the story. And it might educate the odd one or two of them too.
Yes, well I'd move it to the top of that list. It doesn't disappoint if you like that sort of thing. At the moment it is highly topical too,
Then I would watch it the very next time you have control of the TV and media, and have a good drop of alcohol at your elbow.
I have the alcohol right now but not enough signal strength on the internet in this remote Farmhouse.... sitting currently in about the only decent spot for posting Great place for walks and chilling. You'd love it for rambling. Fields. Steep path to beach. Couple of mile walk to dairy farm to see cows being milked and the calves being fed. One of the best sights was circa 600 cows walking across the cliff pass on their way back to the farm. One very long cow train.
