Mom's gonna kill me for this one.

A few days ago, maybe a week mom bought some Philadelphia cream cheese. Now I love cheese of all kinds and Philadelphia cheese is right up there. I could eat it all day I really do love cheese so you can imagine when I saw the Philly just how excited I got.

My mothers words were "Do not Eat any of the cheese, it's for your sandwiches for work", And I know she was serious because she was pointing her finger at me when she was saying it.
So she went off to bed and I played on my games for a while, a few hours passed and I was feeling a little peckish. I looked in biscuit box and got a marsbar. I also looked in the fridge and there it was, the Philadelphia cheese. but I remembered my mothers words/warning and I managed to pull my self away.

the next night after mom had gone to bed I got hungry again so I looked in the fridge , and there it was and this time it was open, I couldn't help it I just dipped my finger in there and got a scoop of the cream cheese. it was sooooo good and yummi. but now there is a huge finger shape scoop in the cheese, so I take another scoop, just to try and hide the first one ha ha.

So I go to bed and have sweet dreams and the next night same thing happened I get more cheese and now there is none left and all that remains is the empty carton in the fridge and I know that when my mother finds out she is gonna go crazy. but I just can't help my self when it comes to the philly cheese.

The ones left behind.

The anniversary of the 9/11 was on the TV the other day, I can't believe that ten years has now passed since that dreadful day, and I remember it like it was just last week.


When it came on the news and I saw the first tower with smoke billowing from the mid section. The news reporters saying they thought it was a accident, then the second plane hit and the world new in a instant that it was no accident. I was so upset by what I saw , it was a act of pure evil.

so many people were lost, people who never suspected that that day would be their last, people who were going to go home and eat with their family and loved ones, people who on the whole were good people and were just doing their every day normal things. Those people are forever gone but not forgotten.

when I think of 9/11 I don't just think of the people who's lives were lost, I also think of the people who lost the loved ones. I imagine them seeing on the news the horror and then coming to know that their loved ones wont be coming home again.

I imagine them at first thinking that maybe their loved ones got away ok and that they will be home soon, they wait till their normal time of arriving looking out of the window to see the one they love coming up the drive in the car, but their is just a empty space where they should be, the night goes on and it's at this time when they realise that their loved ones are gone. I can never imagine the sadness and loss felt by those people, to lose the ones they love and never have them to hold again or to see their smiling faces and to hear their voices. I feel the deepest of sorrow for these people and I wish there was something I could do to help them all with their loss. it is these people who I think of the most when I think of 9/11

the ones who were left behind.

Can't beat the classics

I'm sat at the house and I am watching the original Police Academy movie on TV.
I love some of the older movies, the are classics in every way , but some times they try to remake some of them and no matter how good the special effects are and no matter how much money is spent on the remake it will just never beat the original.

a prime example of this is the carry on movies. not every body will know these movies but they are one of the jewels in the crown of comedy movies, they were made in the late sixties and through to the mid eighties. and the line up of stars in the movie was a A list of actresses and actors including , Sid James, Hattie Jacques , Kenneth Williams, and Barbra Windsor. They are all long gone now, but when these people got together in the carry on movies they could make any audience laugh out loud and me and my mother spend many a happy hour watching these movies and I would very highly recommend them to anybody who loves a good comedy.

in the nineties long after the original crew of the carry one movies were dead and gone, they tried to do a remake of one of the movies, Carry on Columbus, it flopped completely I watched it my self and I gave maybe the odd smirk or smile but that was it. and the simple fact of the matter is that the magic that was there when the original crew was alive had gone when they did and just cant be re created.

Some times Classics are better left alone.
