    Anyone else can't bring themselves to wear vintage/used shoes ?....

    I had my reservations about wearing vintage shoes but in the last few months I bought two pairs of late 50's shoes (to be honest at that stage I was more concerned about them fitting me - which they did!) and I hope to wear them once I have broken them in - one set has hardly any wear and the...

    The most frightening motion pictures?

    I made the mistake of reading the synopsis for this film and I have to say I felt sick reading it - the fact that someone made this film and tried to pass this revolting nonsense off as entertainment (some people were saying that it was a commentary on the situation in Serbia at the time -...

    The most frightening motion pictures?

    I think as an adult now what terrifies me are not so much ghosts or ghouls but the terrifying things that can happen to a person in their everyday life. When there is no supernatural explanation but instead the true horror of what people are capable of. Whilst not a movie I did see the...

    The DIY Vintage Repair Before/After Thread

    Ah ok I see - I think the waxing sounds like the safest solution for me to try - the lockers need to be sanded for sure - the varnish (I suppose it's varnish) has peeled off the tops of both - the one I use being in worse shape. This could be my next project! Thank you for your tips and advice...

    The DIY Vintage Repair Before/After Thread

    First time sanding ANYTHING - hence the fear!!!!!!! That's fantastic advice - I would love to give it a go myself - I would be so proud if it worked out! And if so this thread will be inundated with photos of my craftmanship - from all possible angles! Just one more question - does waxing...

    Do you mean the John Hurt version that was on a few weeks ago? I really enjoyed it - very eerie.....

    The DIY Vintage Repair Before/After Thread

    Thank you for that! The idea of varnishing fills me with dread I have to say - I think I would be so afraid of making a mess of it - sanding I think I would be fine with - and the waxing. The sides of the lockers have a high shine to them - kind of like a mirror - I wonder if someone...

    I was nearly forgetting this little gem: Ils (Them) - this film terrified me - the tension did not let up till the very end - I would recommend it heartily.

    The DIY Vintage Repair Before/After Thread

    Thanks for that - I had a look online and it's called a Furniture Refinisher? I checked to see if the same brand is sold here but it isn't but I'm sure there has to be a similar product here. I'm not crazy about the idea of sanding or anything like that so something like this could be perfect...

    The DIY Vintage Repair Before/After Thread

    I'm so impressed with the work that everyone has done here - well done! I was hoping some of you could give me some tips for some DIY - I have two 1930's bedside lockers that are in need of some TLC - they came with a dresser that is in perfect condition (the lockers clearly got a lot more...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    El Secreto de Sus Ojos (The Secret in Their Eyes) - I had heard good things about this movie and it did not disappoint - one of the best thrillers I have seen in years - kept me glued right up to its brilliant ending.

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    The Illusionist (2010) - I'm not normally a huge fan of animation but this was excellent - so sad and beautiful.

    The most frightening motion pictures?

    Threads - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Threads This film terrified me and was on my mind for weeks after I saw it - for some reason the threat of nuclear war was always on my mind in my early teens - and a lot of other people I have spoken to seemed to have this same fear.

    The most frightening motion pictures?

    For me it would be the following: [REC] - the most tense and scary movie I think I have ever seen. Haute Tension (Switchblade Romance) El Orfanato (The Orphanage) 28 Days Later Silence of the Lambs (I literally ran home after seeing it in the cinema - the girl being kept in the pit...
