    Wow, the new female version remake of Ghost Busters really sucks and blows at the same time .. phew .. I pity the fools that went to the cinema and had to watch that load of guff

    What made it worse was the cameo roles made/ played by the original actors, are they that short of money?

    Also, the remake of Robocop... wow does that suck, I mean how do you make a half man robot violent movie make you want to sleep, well that director achieved it.

    I saw the female ghostbusters and enjoyed it. I liked the cameos and references to the first film. Its a film that i went to to just have a laugh.

    thank you splashy!!! I ( I know you don't mean it) am only interested in what my ancestors did for a living and where they lived, on my Grandmother's side they came from Lancashire ( I were born up north, but moved to the Cheshire area later on) a lot of them worked either in domestic service or as labourers in cotton mills or on farms,

    Went to see a friend after work and left my ipad there. Had to borrow something from my daughter but it was difficult to use and i kept annoying her and then gave up. i did'nt realise how addicted i was to using it. Hopefully i will get it back by 6.

    Back in the day - and I'm talking late 60s/early 70s - one of my favourite singers was Al Stewart. I had all his records and saw him in concert and at folk clubs many times. I still play his early stuff quite a lot today.

    Over the last ten years or maybe even more, Al, who now lives in America, has toured over here on a fairly regular basis but he always does his newer songs and has not done his old songs for a long time. This year he is over here again in April and May with a tour called "Back to the Bedsit", which I can only assume means he is returning to his original songs as his first album was called "Bedsitter Images".

    What this is all leading to is that, quite out of the blue this morning, his promoter offered me two complimentary tickets to his concert at the London Palladium on 12 May. As it happens, that is just one week before a significant birthday for me. What a present!

    When I want a good laugh I always watch any Mel Brooks or Leslie Nielsen films, some have not aged well but I still enjoy them

    Didn't Al Stewart have a hit song called "Year of the Cat"? (I seem to recall that somewhere in the back of my head!). Enjoy the concert, what a great birthday present for you!

    Thank you, Pantherboy. Yes, "Year of the Cat" was his biggest (only, really!) hit.
