    Great thanks Chilco. I want to go and see it. I really loved the book enigma, but hated the film. Reading Enigma if you haven't is a must too.

    Yes, I'm keen to see it. Having worked in IT for many years, it would be a bit of a surprise if I hadn't heard of Alan Turing years ago. People can't pick the times they are born into, and in Turing's case, he would have been far better off to have been born recently or maybe in years to come. His genius would always be there and he would as comfortable and forward thinking in any era he lived in.

    As far as his part in Enigma was concerned, I was disappointed that the film Enigma, back in 2000 odd didn't base the film around him, but instead went for a dodgy romance. It ended up an OK film. Derek Jacobi did a stage play about Turing in the 1990's, I believe, and later did a drama documentary about the man. I'll see if I can find it on Youtube, because it's worth watching:

    After listening to Kermode and Mayo yesterday, I've gone from indifferent to keen to watch Interstellar, so that's two films I want to catch.

    Because I went to kiss her as we parted, she was like no thanks, I was very apologetic. We said bye but I fear I have permanently ruined things with her. And she'll delete me from Facebook, and never want to talk to me again. Though I do hope it was just shyness on her part that made her say no, having never been kissed and she may still be interested just was a bit scared to take the plunge. I recognize that's unrealistic though. So upset.

    So I was right, you miss read the signals. You need to carm the **** down as well, if she can get that offended over a guy wanting to kiss her then she needs help. She may feel a little weird or too shy etc but that is just because she is scared to show emotion. If she deletes you and breaks off contact for you wanting a kiss then move on.

    If I was you I would get my anxiety checked out, you are going to make yourself ill carrying on like you do.

    You either didn't recognise them or there weren't any. The girl is inexperienced herself, probably.

    Don't be upset. Did you have a good time..?

    There are always signals, you can tell how the night is going whether to take it to a kiss. If she looked nervous like she seems to have then you don't try to kiss her.

    Yeah, I know there are always signals, Beef, but if the girl is inexperienced too then she doesn't know the code either, so it can end up that she gives out as little as possible. PL, with his lack of recognition, isn't going to spot anything, especially if they aren't genuine yes/no, but more I don't know signals.

    True,the biggest thing PL needs to do is stop over thinking things. He will end up ill or something.

    Relationships are not like painting by numbers, you just have to go with what feels right at the time, without thinking or agonising over what should be happening. If you tried to kiss her just because you thought that you must do it because that's what is expected, then it will be forced and unnatural.
    Trust your emotions rather than your brain PL,
