Married to Christine. Currently life sucks with both our health isssues family issues and so forth but I wouldn't change being married to Chris' for over 30 years for anything. Not a tiny bit right-wing. I write, give film opinions, paint and design stuff.
New post‑collapse Britain story in progress.
Two men heading toward the ruins of Brum, where the danger isn’t just in the city but in the shadows around it.
“Solly looked at the broken grin of the city on the horizon. Dark against the bruising sky...”

🎥I watch a film from start to finish even if my experience/taste tell me I will not like it after 10 minutes, sometimes I'm wrong/sometimes correct. I stop/never pick up books or video games I dislike again believe or not; I am 63. 🤣
Last of UsPart II video game lasted very little time with me.
🎥I found an old drive with was stuff on there I didn't realise there was. Pushing myself, telling folk about what I do has been going on for a long time and has be wholly unsuccessful, time to give up I think.
This is from years ago.....

I still remember the episode to this day - he, as usual, was great - I mean if it still rings a bell with any old fart like me decades later then you know it was good work.
I've been watching some of them - after some of the 'watch old stuff' shows on TV it is a nice change, I enjoy it.
"Nobody will buy them" that is my work I think you'll find.
What do you mean - my stuff is not there? 🤔
My latest film opinion clearly shows my popularity 🤣
Anything that has Peter Boyle in it for an episdoe wins.
Your sister you say???

Did this ten years or more ago - I think it is more relevant today than it was then...
If we did that, we'd have to start all over again unforunately, if it is retirement and leasehold you'll get exactly the same problems
His 'fans' and that is what they are, don't care, as long as he gets rid of non-white people and allows them to beat them up on the streets without being prosecuted, they don't care about getting extra jobs, having no pensions, and paying private health insurance. We get what we deserve.
They own the property, the communial building but not each individual flat, so the managment package is supplied by them and the leashold package - they hold them, we have to ask for them. The sit on their arses and look out window.
I think they are ok with that - tiny ground rent; the maintenance is £2000 or so pa and the last statement they had £39k balance so any big bills wouldn't cost anything - I think it is more admin and speed that is where they annoy people. They are supposedly aware of my stress and Chris' cancer....
Not sure it's power mate - as far as I can tell it is a new Leasehold - so they need a new leasehold pack to look at and the management pack and this company has to supply that. Sometimes that can take weeks and weeks and weeks because basically they don't care as far as I can tell.
They own the actually buildings I think - or they maintain them and the grounds for someone - so the gardens, footpaths, walls, the roofs, communial entrances and so forth; all maintained by them. We own the flat, until the lease runs out in 158 years then they own it again.
The UK eh?
Yes, how do you make Grange Property Management Limited pull their finger out so that someone who wants to buy a flat that they maintain and get paid money to maintain by the very same people can actually buy the friggin' flat quite quickly.
There will be no NHS, they use the US system as an example. Yet millions of people still will vote for them, despite having to work harder and have two or three jobs, have fewer rights, and probably die of serious illnesses untreated - as long as they persecute people with brown skin, it's all good.
Not if the property management company don't actually decide to work like even 'normal humans' and get the documents across to the people who need them, we'll still be in holiday lets and rentable places until August at this friggin' rate.
You are not wrong there. Luckily my wife and I are into our final years...
So? The UK government will say, 'Pay them or get cut-off, my friends pay theirs. Sorry? Well yes some of them are millionaires but what has that got to do with it?'
Most of which I probably won't see - they are nearly always diluted, a near remake, or sometimes just crap.
What are you lamp-posts like in the States?.....Just asking 🤔
Chris you have mine too 🤣 When we get the flat - in 2028 - and we have £20 our our savings left and my wife is dead I will buy a 'case' rebox all my DVDs/BluRays and store them everywhere....I am The REAL Film Cricket after all...
🎥The Life of Chuck (2024) a good story; it could be about anyone's life. The conversion from Stephen King novella to the screen was flawed. I'm glad I watched it but it'll be once - great acting though. 🎥 #SkyFilm #Films #Movies #MovieOpinion #FilmOpinion #TheLifeofChuck #StephenKing

I've been saying that about every war since I was about 10, my dad was in WW2 and he said the same and said despite what you hear in films and on TV a lot of servicemen hated Churchill and those rich politicians.
I worked for them for over 10 years, they uses a lot of my graphics, including shirt designs and I used to do a lot of stuff for the old paper programmes (remember those). Tonight they won the league title, so I reused a favourite graphic of mine #icehockey #SwindonWildcats #graphicdesign #design
🎥Wake Up Dead Man: Knives Out (2005) believe or not I watched and wrote this in early January this year, then with all the stuff that is going on in my life I forgot - anyway better late than never 🎥 #WakeUpDeadMan #filmopinion #movies #Skyfilm #film

Similar mindset? After I let that 5th goal in last night I'd say Trump to be honest....🤣
