    Leftover steak, cheesy potatoes and corn off the cob.

    Autumnal Thoughts........

    Leaves in the sugar bush are turning, and the corn is to come off early owing to near- perfect weather and rain this year!

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    If one is opposed to making the Ian Fleming male character female, one is an incel? I am opposed to making the male character of James Bond, 007, a female one. So, this married father of two who lost it at 17 would take you task on that. You can do better. PS - if I need further street cred...

    Such would have to be reduced to television, and not particularly expensive to produce at that, because the reality is, the current movie going public has no knowledge of, let alone fondness for, the Bond of the period novels. Like it or not, that is the realty. No actor being considered for...

    I have yet to see this film. I should give it a try.

    You were both right, sort of. Bond was seeking revenge for Vesper's death, and the villain and his Quantum group were seeking control - of water, in anarea with a shortage of it. I did not find it confusing at all.

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    We have booked our tickets to see the next Bo d flick, No Time to Die, so we needed to catch our girls up on the first four Craig films. We hit pause on Hallowe'en films for SPECTER last night. Had not realized we (wife and I) had not seen it again since watching in the theatre. We have the...

    It would be impossible to get a closer look alike, and as for his personality, we know only so much, but his fondness for the drink was I thought well done.

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    The 2021 iteration of the Cairo family's Hallowe'en Calvacade of Horror has started a wee bit early. We watched The Raven, the John Cusack vehicle about a fictionalized account of Edgar Allan Poe's last days and death. Luke Evans co-stars in this easy going Gothic look at an icon of Horror...

    What Did You Drink Last Night?

    Not last night, but right now in fact. After a weekend of hard yard labour, relaxing on the last of the summer's eves with an ale, one of my favourites. Baked bread, warm biscuit, a touch of honey, whispered the word "hops" over it.
