    The Lion King is in a class of it's own though.

    You ever seen the 3D one? :D


    It is, Disneys best movie along with Beauty and the Beast imo, I didnt bother with the 3D one i'm not a fan of post production 3D, like theyre doong with Titanic and Star Wars, am loving that older movies are back in cinemas just leave em alone, the 3D isnt necessary. Avatar was spectacular in 3D though as it was shot that way.

    I haven't seen the entire movie in 3d, but was round at my mates house when he was trying out his 3DTV and had it on.

    There's a bit at the start where Zazu (?) is flying and it fecking seems like he's in the room with you, almost reaching out and grabbing him! :pac:

    The best use of 3D i've seen is on the rides in Universal Studios like Spiderman and King Kong, theres a part on the Spiderman ride where you fall off the edge of a building and plummet towards the street and it genuinely feels like youre falling even though youre not going anywhere, everyone puts out their hands lol

    Thanks :) He's coming over tonight, I'm really nervous because we've never have had any major issues that needed a sit down and a talk before, in over 2 years.. We'll see how it goes sure.
    Sorry to hear about your OH :(

    That happened me too, in my case they hadn't shipped it and were buying time. Report it to DHgate and they'll sort it.

    My office is South facing and is impossible on warm days, but on the other hand manageable when it snowed. Fan is on, windows open, emergency exit doors open, normal door open...:eek:

    Irish people saying 'Mom' is not American in origin, it comes from the Irish 'A Mhaim'. Hence why it's more common in counties with Gaeltachts. A lot more Irish than 'Mum'. So there :)

    Eh, Maim, is pronounced 'Mom' and is the Irish language word for mother. So in a lot of ways Mom is a very Irish pronunciation.

    And since when does what you call your mother have anything to do with your patriotism?

    Was that because I said Mom? A word I got from my MOM, who called her mom Mom, and my grandmother, who is 90, who refers to herself as Mom, and all my aunts and uncles say Mom, who are aged between 40 and 65, some of whom have never left their Kerry village and don't own tv's, so don't know that Americans say Mom, never mind copying them.

    As mentioned Mom is incredibly Irish, generations of my family grew up near the Gaeltacht, so Mom has come from A Mhaim, educate yourself on your history before making sweeping generalisations.

    Edit: And the sad thing is that whenever I do say it online or where I live now there is ALWAYS someone with this attitude, at home in Kerry everyone says it, so now I have started to edit it and use Mum just to avoid the grief I get. You've made me mad now, feck it. If my (imaginary) kids ever called me Mum they wouldn't do it again, I'd prefer for them to stick with the proper Irish word.

    All this sunshine is not conducive to getting work done, I keep finding myself staring absent-mindedly out the window at the blue sky :o.

    I hope it's still sunny at the weekend; Friday is the only day I don't have loads of college work to do and on Saturday I'm babysitting two toddlers who love being outside so it'd be nice if I didn't have to freeze alongside them :p.

    Edit: I call my mom 'Mom' too.. I called her Mammy when I was little. 'Mom' is far more Irish than 'Mum'; I always get annoyed when I'm buying cards for Mother's Day, it's almost impossible to find one that doesn't say 'Mum' or ''Mummy' on it :mad:

    stomach has been in knots since Monday, didn't even want to get out of bed with the sun shining. Felt great at the weekend once I had walked away from job so did a meditation webinar thing online last night and feel a bit better, realise today it's because I still have to work my old job for another few weeks. The stress of having to be in the same place as that guy is making me ill, I just want to go.

    On a positive note, the sun is still shining and tomorrow is payday :) Really want to get to the beach and go surfing before I go back to work. (lucky me sun shines conveniently when I take my holidays)

    Only across the water but we're not together long enough to be able to deal with this! He'll only be home once every 6 weeks or so, we're used to seeing each other a few times a week! I know people deal with worse and I know I should be thankful he's not going further and be delighted he got work! BUT that's my brother, my best friend and now himself all gone/going!
