Spills a bit... Wossat mean, dude?:hmm:
Marco.
Dad's Army, the movie, 1971. T he original cast in a movie version.. not great but has its charm.

A number of changes to series were enforced by Columbia pictures, including mrs pike and sets, but overall it gets pass marks.
imo the 2016 verion is much better, but i agree im in the minority as it was slated(imo due to people identifying with original cast)
well , the chest's lid fails to close for a start :eyebrows:Quote:

It's a bit of a 'thing' though that many women wear the incorrect size of bra, which is why Del generally buys her undies from proper lingerie retailers, who offer a professional fitting service.
Sounds like a job you might volunteer for!:D
Marco.
yeah but imo its sexier in that form and of course it was 1970.. full nudity etc was still not really accepted on film. think in usa it was an 18 as was; aa here if memory serves.. the sixties may have been free love in life(although its mostly bull) but the film industry always lagged 10 yrs behind in those days:lol:Quote:

Most decent lingerie retailers offer a profesional fitting service for an "over the shoulder bolder holster".Quote:

certainly not unusual. some things are woman only, and that is one of them. dont get me wrong ive bought underwear and basques etc for women before successfully but if the lady wants to do it herself, then the decent thing is to make yourself scarce.Quote:

Lol, indeed. No problem with the latter, just not so much the former, which appears to be a bit of a 'girly thing'. However, I can understand and of course respect her wishes. I don't think the female assistants are keen on men 'loitering' either, lol...Quote:

Fortunately, I like her tastes in underwear, so there are no issues;)
Marco.
that is an area you need to work on mate. they do appreciate it:)Quote:

Fortunately neither of us are at all interested in basques, cami-knickers or any exotica as might be sold in Ann Summers or other emporia.

Hahaha... Well, Del's never been shy in throwing a 'princess strop'!:D
I was thinking more in terms of advice on the part you'd highlighted earlier.
Marco.
You live and let live tbh. Just coz she is wife doesn't give you rights over her, or her you. You both trust each other so leave well alone and appreciate what you've got. Your a lucky bastard [emoji106]
Lol, yesh I know... And so is she!;)
Marco.
My advice: Del does seem to like doing girlie stuff (girlie get togethers, girlie nights out), so when she suggests you go and do blokey stuff, do it! I'm not talking about watching 'the match' down the pub with yer mates, or going for a game of pool, but you could go and look at some power tools, or find a record shop. Works for me :)Quote:

Yes, Del's defo like that. We do loads of stuff together, as you know and enjoy each other's company, but she's always been a 'girly-girl', and has lots of mates and some close female friends.
I'm totally cool with that, but just laugh sometimes at her 'antics'!:D
Marco.

Yeah I get that. I don't mind going round certain types of shops, as long as what's sold holds my interest, and fortunately, in that respect, out with of outright girly stuff, Del and I have similar interests. For example, we both love antique shops and anywhere that sells nice (unusual) things/bric-a-brac, for the house or garden.
I also enjoy treating her and buying her nice clothes, and watching her wee face light up when she gets stuff she really likes, especially dresses and shoes (from the designer boutiques she enjoys frequenting), so I don't mind taking her shopping for things like that, and often do, although as I've said she prefers to shop on her own for underwear or with her girlfriends.
Whilst Del's a 'girly girl', in the sense of some of the things she likes [her 'girly fun', as you've mentioned with other females] and how she looks/dresses, as well as sometimes behaving like a 'princess', she's also not afraid to get her hands dirty, as it were, working in the garden, making/fixing things, and has always been very active, with a strong work ethic.
Just thought I'd make that clear, in case you thought she was some demanding, high-maintenance, superficial 'air head', who only cares about herself. Nothing could be *further* from the truth!:)

Poirot Series 5... from 1993 i think.. David Suchet and Hugh Fraser star.
https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon....%2BiL._AC_.jpg
L.A. Story, 1991. Stars Steve Martin, Victoria Tennant, Richard E Grant, Marilu Henner and Sarah Jessica Parker. Directed by Mick Jackson.
https://encrypted-tbn2.gstatic.com/i...3M9N-1L-ahSAqF
Was well enough received and a hit at box office too. Victoria was a treat for the eyes, and Martin has his moments.
"Life is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing."
Marilu Henner puts Victoria Tennant well in the shade mate.
she's nice too, but in different way, as was sjp in hers.. guessing you wouldnt refuse any;)Quote:

The girl with the elephant hat Gaz posted on the hat thread in Blank Canvas is much more my type. Here: https://theartofsound.net/forum/show...76#post1230276
She's very pretty:thumbsup: Or Rachel Riley.

Didnt get much approval from critics, but broke even at box office at about $22m. I like this; script is ok and the quality cast move it along well enough.
What's your view on oriental women, Geoff?Quote:

They like to embrace their femininity. In that respect, Rachel Khoo is really cute: https://thehappyfoodie.co.uk/article...-food-memories
And she can cook, too!:D
Marco.
My first serious girlfriend was Anglo Chinese and really gorgeous. Couldn't cook though :).Quote:

I agree, but it's not beauty I'm talking about though [why I find most 'supermodels'/Miss World types distinctly unattractive], but rather 'girly cuteness'/femininity.
I love women who not only look like women, but BEHAVE/dress like women, and also have an air of delicateness and 'vulnerability' [as in like to be looked after and protected], as well as sophistication.
Chinese and Japanese women tend to be like that, but of course there are plenty of girls like that of all nationalities!
Del's exactly like that, which is one of the things that attracted me to her in the first place, but she's also strong-willed and stroppy lol, which is also something else I like:D I like confident, intelligent, feisty women with 'attitude', who know what they want from life. That in itself is very attractive.
Geoff, she sounds nice, so you get what I mean?:)
Marco.
Now there we agree. I'd crawl over broken glass to get to Rachel Riley.Quote:
