Reasons To Be Cheerful

Posy

Enjoy your time off, DvB!

It's not a week, but I am really looking forward to the 3 day weekend.

Plus, mid term next week, so no school kids jamming up the 25% capacity buses!

Last day today before being off for a week ( 9 days with no work, bliss) and despite the restrictions & lousy weather predicted am going to try & make the most of it by getting plenty of exercise & also having some nice beers & treats too.... planning on getting a few walks in too with the family, weather permitting of course and may even start to watch a christmas movie ( a week or 2 early for us!!!)

Just get a manic day today out of the way and we're good to go, so roll on 4pm!!

Exactly this x2.

Even down to the 4pm finish.

Plus it's a long weekend for most.... so.... HAPPY FRIDAYYYYYYYY!!!!!!

Have a good one guys.

Am off today so enjoying the first of 4 days off and a short week next week.

Downtime is extra important these days!

I would be mostly indifferent to Nicholas Cage, but on occasion I can have an irrational dislike for him, and that scene with his fake hair blowing in the wind triggers me :pac:

It's just a meme, I haven't even seen that film, tbh. :pac:

You haven't seen con air? If you like die hard, you'll LOVE con air.... its a complete classic.

Posy

Oooh, I DO like Die Hard.

I'll put it on the list, along with The Family Man- still haven't seen that either!

It's beginning to look a lot like Cagemas... :pac:

The Family Man is an excellent heart moving film, Cage was perfectly cast for it.

You'll see a good few well known actors in Con Air, it used to be shown fairly regularly on telly, and traditionally we would watch it if we found it. Not sure if it still is shown as much as we haven't had channels in years, so it's a long time since we watched it last. It's one that can be put on the non Christmas movie list, and for old times sake, I may throw it on as our Saturday night movie

Might I suggest another cage double bill, watch 'con air' and 'the rock' 2 great cage action flicks!

The family man is one of my favourite films, I absolutely love it, looking forward to watching it again soon.

I had the Terrys chocolate orange one on Sunday. It was fantastic!

miamee

I bought that one for my OH as he doesn't like mint. I was fixing something or putting something in my bag, then turned to ask could I taste the orange one and he was draining the last dregs out of the cup. I think he liked it :pac:
