I like a lot of Australian films, I especially always liked Bryan Brown. I need to watch a few more, haven't seen one for a while.

He's a very interesting chap, much like Benedict Cumberbatch, despite being very famous, obviously wealthy and living a good life, seems very honest, fair and pleasant in his interviews.

My art work really has gone from poor to average over 30 years but I can't stop painting no matter how self-critical I am. I can't explain it, I have to paint.

Here's my film opinion site by the way - I get at least one visitor a month 😂

Yeah, it was 'it's my brother' for me. My site where every painting I have ever done that is photographed is posted up - good and bad -filmfan too - I write about them. Love your work by the way! Haven't found many gouache users to be fair - I really like it.

Hey Frankly thanks for the follow.

We're similar painters in a way. Style is not the same but we both use gouache and we seem to paint actors and so forth....I still haven't got one as a friend though 😂

Brittany Allen's husband did post 'Wow man, that's great' under my painting of her...

Thanks Fred, I throughly recommend it, Wain is credited with making people consider cats as pets just through his artwork. It is a funny film, but also very sad, and has a plethora of good actors, so even before it begins you know it will be good.

My old team - Swindon Wildcats - sit top of that league at the moment, the first time ever, and of course I don't watch them anymore due to my location. They've lost one game and two in OT and have won every home game this season. A couple of good Canadians play for them too.

Played some video games too. In Oregon killing infected, picking plants/shooting deer in Days Gone (completed the game loads of times so); started a game I said I wouldn't The Last of Us 2; turned it off when the scene/dialogue in the Joel meets the surgeon was changed to suit the story & agenda...

Patton being harsh and offending people?? Nah - nope, don't believe it, that is not the Patton Oswalt I have watched, listened to and read over the years.

It's bonkers Wendy honestly. I won't go into details here but it doesn't make any sense, none of it does. Weeks previously we were happy.....utter madness and sadness.

It sucks. But I don't get angry or bitter. I'm just sad.

My wife stopped me from carrying on trying to get a quick house-sale and move as she genuinely thought I was going to have a heart-attack!

It's my book now I guess Fred. I have read it but it was Kindle version so now I have an older copy - so all good. I enjoyed the book and the original film too.

Seems a bit prescient nowadays too.

We have decided to be nearer my few remaining family and genuine life-long friends down south. The main reason moving to the Highlands was to be near my wife's daughter! 😠

We helped them out financially for the dream move more than once too...

Anyone want to buy a rural Highlands house?

None of us were at all - and nothing happening around the village tonight, loved Bub in Day of the Dead though. The greatest zombie ever created and played by any actor - Sherman Howard.

Best of luck! Hopefully some of my wife's will pass over to you both. Honestly without going on about personal & let's face it, odd & probably uninteresting problems, I have genuinely never been so upset and then ecstatic in the space of a few days in my life (that includes when I was a little boy).

2/2 Bad news my wife's daughter because we don't do what she does, exploring the Highlands, driving 3 hours to Edinburgh and Glasgow every day has got really angry - it looks like we might be estranged. I think we will end up seeing out our final days in the south.....We don't deserve this.
