Same venue as last year, perfect :)

[Swann36]

Looking forward to it already :D

[mik_rik]

Should be there

It's a great venue.

[Ali Tait]

Aye it is. Will be there, thanks for organising again Steve!

[Floyddroid]

My pleasure. The first of my retirement.

Enjoy your retirement Steve, but don't be thinking life will get easier or simpler now, it never does :doh:

[Macca]

The complexity might not change but on the plus side you don't have to drag your ass out of bed at 0630 on a pitch black, freezing cold January morning any more.

Nice one mate, well deserved.

Well I still have that to do, but maybe Steve's bladder's in better shape than mine :)

[Floyddroid]

I haven't yet heard from Ken. He's usually the first one up for NEBO. I hope he's ok?

[Macca]

Might be on his hols?

[Swann36]

My pleasure. The first of my retirement.

Congratulations for the day

[Barry]

The trouble with retirement is that you never get a day off. But on the other hand you can do what you want, when you want. :)

[RichB]

I'll be along for it.

[Lawrence001]

I'll do my best (not that that's been much use in the past). I'm currently out of work but I'm not sure where I'll be by next year.

Sorry to hear that Lawrence. I hear George Clooney is looking for a new stunt double since the AI backlash in Hollywood.

Thought you were applying for that?

[Pigmy Pony]

Thought you were applying for that?

No, you're thinking of George Kennedy. I would have been perfect for that job :( RIP George.

[Lawrence001]

Sorry to hear that Lawrence. I hear George Clooney is looking for a new stunt double since the AI backlash in Hollywood.Thanks for the rec Steve, but unfortunately I already applied unsuccessfully for that role. I think he was worried I was more handsome and would put him to shame.

[Pigmy Pony]

I know just what you mean, good looks can be a curse. Same thing happened to me when I auditioned for lead role in the upcoming Pogues biopic :(

[Macca]

They asked me to double for Leonardo DiCaprio - a million dollars a picture - but I had to knock them back.

It would have meant relocating to L.A, and where I am now is handy for the supermarket and the bus stop.

[Pigmy Pony]

I bet they don't even have a Spar in Beverly Hills.

[Pigmy Pony]

Avalon. My most played Roxy album, and also their last and most successful studio album. Released more than 42 years ago :eek:

I've been and they don't. No bookies and no chippy either. Not really sure how anyone manages to live there.

That's just shocking. I suppose you'd have to stock up at Farmfoods and have a barbecue at home.

[Pigmy Pony]

Sorry Steve, this is still the NEBO thread :doh:

:D I watched all three Beverly Hills Cop last month. Great stuff. Then last weekend I watched another sequel that has just come out (Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F). That's two hours I won't get back :( It was actually depressing to watch, the years have not been kind, especially for Billy Rosewood.

[Floyddroid]

I think i will strt a new thread.

While it was ridiculous I loved the surprise appearance of an early "James Carrey" as the credits put it, and Liam Neeson in a comical film making scene to Guns n Roses Welcome to the Jungle, and a cameo by Slash firing a harpoon later on.

[Lawrence001]

I'm not sure if it was better than Bullet to Beijing, the late Harry Palmer film, or Death Wish V, there's quite a bit of competition for best ridiculously poor and so somehow good (in a post ironic sense) late sequels.

[Lawrence001]

I think i will strt a new thread.Sorry Steve

[Barry]

'Billion Dollar Brain', the third Harry Palmer film, was bad enough. (When you say the "late" Harry Palmer film, does that mean he gets killed? Not that I really care, save it does mean there won't be a fifth film.)

This thread is funnier than one of my favourite Pete and Dud sketches.

I recall Billion Dollar Brain being bad was it some evil villain trying to run an underworld empire with a super computer (complete with dot matrix card printouts)?
