Old Geek Wittering
@darrenhf.bsky.social
Born and living in UK. I'm a total sci-fi geek and due to my advancing years I'm going to have to give up on that changing any time soon. Slave to dog, children and work in that order.
Really thought the Chinese women's team would be a sterner test for the Lionesses. They were shell-shocked in the first half. In the second, they were better but England still put another 3 past them.

Claudia Cardinale was one of a group of beautiful European actresses who showed Hollywood how it was done.

She was one of the 4 pillars of my favourite western ONCE UPON A TIME IN AMERICA.

Actual toy advert. I'm not the only one who jumped to the wrong conclusion am I?

It is interesting to me that #toxictrump should choose this image as the relevant character in the film is quite clearly a deluded nutjob.

Ellen Greene as Audrey in THE LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS is one of the finest performances in a musical ever, and I will never be persuaded otherwise.

If a giant alien ship doesn't emerge from this cloud line, I'm going to be so disappointed.

I do not see how this can be a comfortable sleeping position.

According to nationalcareers.service.gov.uk/job-profiles... this is what is needed to be an MP. Ahem.

Had this fine fellow assisting in the garden. No idea who belongs to him/her.

Saw this and immediately wondered 'by what?'. What has a garage door got to be worried about? Waiting lists on the National Hinge Service? Being replaced by an AI model from China? Being damaged by severe weather events created by global warming?

I used to be one of those "it's too early for Easter Eggs to be in the shops" people until the cost of living crisis meant we all have to save up for special events. One thing it's never too early for is Mr Kipling Lemon Fancies.

I've had some bad times in my life, but I don't think I've ever been as desperate as #liztruss hawking herself on the streets of Washington DC in the hope of getting a gig, any gig. Does she not have any friends or family because she seems in need of an intervention?

This Doctor Who Day I am remembering the lovely Elisabeth Sladen, who I was lucky enough to meet twice and who delighted on both occasions. My daughter is named for her character, Sarah Jane.

No matter how old I get, it's still exciting to wake up to this. The dog was more sanguine about it.
