    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    I think I saw some of it a few months back - I just don't think he's a good actor - he's quite one dimensional - I'm amazed he's as successful as he is.

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Wedding Crashers - I didn't care for this at all - it was quite crass and not that funny - plus I loathe Vince Vaughn.

    Dialects/Accents in the Movies

    I find most non-Irish actors have a hard time putting across a decent Irish accent - a lot of the time it strays into Oirish territory or at worst Darby O'Gill. I have read that the Irish accent is one of the hardest to do - I'm trying to think of someone that has done it successfully and am...

    Show Us Your Pedigree! The Heritage Thread.

    It seems I'm 100% Irish - my brother has been tracing our family tree and so far there haven't been any outside influences - he's gone back a couple of hundred years so I'd say that's that.

    The general decline in standards today

    I saw this poster for the first time the other day - a real sign of the times we are living in. Imagine that this problem is so rife that a poster has to be printed up: Seriously - I mean - spitting? That has to be one of the scummiest things you can do.

    Thank you! We had a lovely evening - a delicious meal in one of our favourites restaurants followed by tipples in a great pub. Yesterday to continue celebrations we had some lovely NZ Astrolabe Pinot Noir.

    Besides English, What Languages Do You Speak?

    My French is pretty good but could do with polishing up my grammer - I used to speak a little German but have forgotten most of it - I have also pretty much forgotten how to speak Irish which is a shame (I blame the way it's taught over here). However, I hope to work on my French and then...

    Forbidden items in my home...

    Any pine furniture or flooring - we're stuck with both at the moment as we're not moving to our house until next year (and are renting in the meantime) - I hate them both more every day - every cat hair, drip of tea, piece of fluff, crumb - all magnified.

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Sorry - I'm reading what you wrote - again this time properly - it was pretty early when I read this after a late one - yes, I know what you mean - there were red herrings thrown throughout however thinking of past horror movies I figured it had to be the most innocuous of the bunch...
