This thread has been cold-freeze for a long time, but that can be easily fixed…
Well, this afternoon I looked for something that really made me laugh… at least with my sense of humour…
I´ve recalled that there was a movie that I hadn´t seen since almost 10 years ago, and it was a cracking one, for me. I remember watching this movie with my cousin, at home, VHS, several times, drinking "some" beer, while my 95 Y.O. grandma was smiling with us in the front of the TV and calling us “kids†(we kids… well, I was doing The Service and my cousin was a Semi-Pro Rugby Player, nice face his, almost a pop-eye, a self propelled wardrobe he).
I can´t remember how many times we watched this movie (frequently, especially after I left The Service... when I was unemployed for some months but I got some cheap / rough jobs as a low hodman with the brother of a former Service mate before I got a better job), and what brand of beer we were drinkin´ but I can remember that he and me one night, after watchin´ the movie we (my cousin and me, we were then singles & free) took out our 95 y.o. grandma and went to have a dinner we three at a Chinese restaurant… there we asked the waitress at the end of the dinner (we half boiled) to give a small shot of non mixed rum to our grandma: well, the old lady finished the shot without any trouble. No dramas.
Great.
She was great!
Those times needed to be remembered today…
I don´t know why, but I had to see that movie again…
The movie was “The Snapperâ€. Real life comedy… real life… that´s all…
And this song version (part of the soundtrack) was also great; today, a classic:
Lick The Tins - I Can't Help Falling In Love (original)
Cheers
