Yes, would someone please give Heisenberg his pics, before he blows half our faces off.

Another thread of this....

That's a fucking liberty. Cunts. I trust you've alerted Cash Converters etc? I'll keep an eye oot. Might be worth checking Gumtree on a regular basis. These cunts aren't usually very smart.

The Legend of Grimrock (PC) - the classic 90-degree Dungeon Master game updated. Superb.

Coolio. I spoke with the guy - Mr Simon Bare-Knuckle - a few weeks back and he suggested Mules as the best choice for what I was looking for.

How comes the Mules? Those Emeralds sounded the absolute dugs baws.

As a change of pace, we added a a few rom/rom-coms to the watch list at the weekend. The Notebook Romance, about a elderly gent (James Garner) in an old folks home in the present day, who reads a story from a notebook to a fellow patient (Gena Rowlands) who suffers from alzheimer's. The story, set in the 1940's, tells of the difficult relationship between a rich girl (Rachel McAdams) and a working-class boy (Ryan Gosling) and follows their lives over the next 7 years. A good old fashioned 3-hankie weepie (I'm too fukkin NAILS to cry btw) and it's hard to imagine the skinny, fresh-faced Gosling here stamping someone's heid into a pulp in "Driver". 7/10 Love And Other Drugs Enjoyable rom/com, set in 1996 around the advent of Viagra, about an underachiever (Jake Gyllenhal) who gets a job as a rep with drug giants Pfizer and starts a tempestuous relationship with a young Parkinsons sufferer (a rather hot-looking Anne Hathaway). The film involves Jake trying to get doctors to buy a Prozac competitor, dealing with his fat millionaire brother and either arguing or rattling the lovely Anne. Hilarious in parts. 7/10 Crazy, Stupid, Love Easily the best of the bunch, this comedy start Steve Carrell as a mild-mannered (and boring) husband and father who falls apart when his wife (Julianne Moore) confesses to an affair with a colleague (Kevin Bacon) and asks for a divorce. A singles bar gigolo (Ryan Gosling) take pity on him and goes about restyling him and teaching him how to pick up women - with some hilarious results. Along the way both men discover things about themselves as do the other characters in the various sub-plots. 8.5/10 Passchendale This Canadian-made movie, set in WWI, is a kind of Saving Private Ryan Lite. Watchable if a little overlong. 6/10 Irvine Welsh's Ecstasy Staying with Canada (eh?), it's just as well that the movie's title is prefixed with the authors name, because this poor Trainspotting clone bears almost no resemblance to the story on which it was based ("Undefeated" from the book Ecstasy). The movie is set in Edinburgh, but most of the cast are Canadian. The only faces you might recognise are Billy "Pippin" Boyd and Stephen McHattie (300, History of Violence) and, in a quite bizarre piece of casting, Rush guitarist Alex Lifeson as a Scottish doctor. The two main characters names are the same (Lloyd and Heather) and there's a wee scene at the end, but apart from that, the story is almost completely different to that in the book. 3/10

Amsterdam!

That's soooo sweet - two fuck-awful singers together.

Not heard that in years Back home in Ayrshire the word "beef", in a weight gain context, is usually paired with "clapped" - as in "You've fair clapped on the beef, Big Man"

Kill The Irishman Based-on-fact gangster drama about Danny Greene, who took on the Cleveland Mafia in the 70's. Starts off slowly, but develops into a pretty good fillum. I hadn't heard of the lead, Ray Stevenson (a Colin Firth looky-likey) before, but he does a good job as the enigmatic Greene. There's a decent supporting cast, including ole' Private Pyle himself - Vincent D'Onofrio, Christopher Walken, Vinnie Jones, Steve Schirippa (Soprano's Bobby Baccala) and any number of recognisable gangster movie regulars. 7.5/10 The Cabin In The Woods Where do I begin with THIS stoor o' pish? Starts out shite, gets a LOT worse before a brilliant ending. 3/10 for the first 75% and 10/10 for the last quarter.

In good cosmetic condition but with an electrical fault. Good for spares/repair/project. Can be picked up in Turriff (eves/weekends) or Bridge of Don (office hours)

We watched this the other night. I carry an EpiPen with me, so the "stabbing" scene was particularly funny for me. Jennifer Aniston has some brilliant lines.

Fuck! - and here's me thinking that Thatcher had finally bought the farm

It's an awesome sounding pedal, but I'd been after a Fulltone GT500 for yonks. They have the Distortion and Boost switches, which is exactly what I need for my set-up. Another pedal maybe? - fairly open minded.

Will consider swaps

For sale, a boutique overdrive pedal in excellent condition. Works with 9, 12 or 18v power. I've just scored a Fulltone GT500, so this great-sounding and tank-like piece of chrome is now surplus to requirements. Sexy blue LED as well Absolute bargain at a fixed price of £50

No longer required!

Sorted!

Wild Bill Urban drama set in East London (around the Olympic village) and starring Charlie Creed-Miles as Wild Bill, a minor gangster just released from an 8-year stretch in prison, who comes home to find that his wife has abandoned their kids. His 15-year-old son has been taking taking care of the younger brother by skipping school and working illegally on the construction of the Velodrome. A superb and gritty wee movie with great performances all round and an especially endearing one from Creed-Miles. It also has what is quite possibly the best bar fight ever - right up there with Jake The Muss' epic cunt-kicking of a thug in "Once Were Warriors". Get a hold of this movie if you can. 9/10
