Just saw Boyhood today and really enjoyed it. These used the same actors for 12 years and followed this boy Mason growing up from a six year old to an 18 year old. The cast were terrific - Patricia Arquette and Ethan Hawke played Masons parents. It was quite a deep and long movie ( nearly three hours) but I thought it was brilliant.
Last night BT was in raptures over the size of Ollie Wines thighs - I found that all a bit disturbing. He mentioned it several times....
But as my mother used to say "you get what God gives you". I think it was meant in the context of the children you got lumbered with! We have Jimmy, he seems like a nice bloke and I am sure he will come good.
I like the Irish bloke as well. At the beginning I had a soft spot for the Jackel but since he has been delisted, I hope Padraig wins. All three seem like decent guys.
I spent a two hour lunch today with an old friend discussing the MC situation instead of talking about the usual stuff. Lots of hand wringing and "why us". We go back a long way and both agreed ( over a glass of wine) we feel like the jilted girlfriend who has been dumped for the perky blonde cheerleader type. Life's not fair.
We are definitely a bunch of survivors here at the MFC. Made of tough stuff. The staff that I work with jump on and off the bandwagon of which ever club they support depending on how well they are positioned on the ladder. They all smirk as I religiously tip Melbourne each week, sign up immediately for my new membership and still have the MFC ring tone on my phone.
I am as gutted as the next person if all of these MC rumours are true. I will be sulky and cranky but quickly move on (I think so anyway....). There will be another MC in the wings somewhere waiting to get drafted by us.
