A brilliant film. Superb cast, stunning acting (George C. Scott put even Sellers in the shade with his performance), witty yet dark script. One of my favourite fillums.

Woke up 6am, coffee in bed contemplating the cycle commute to work.
Scratched my man bits and farted.
Got dressed, took 500 tons of Xmas recycling out in freezing cold.
Cycled to the office.
On cyclechat when boss is out of room in meeting.......

I've spent all day painting the communal, 3 floor close with @flyingfifi.
She rode 10 miles in icy conditions to work on this week long project.
The two able men living here have not offered to help.
having my dinner, then going to carry on tiling my kitchen, hopefully fitting my new window blind tonight.

Disclaimer: I can do it, but that does not mean I like doing it!

Rescued a spider and put it outside. That was all brave and a man type job.
Then I went off and read some chick-lit to put the balance back in my life.

They should be ashamed of themselves, or did you do a better job?

That's not manly. Man would have got more wood and made a bigger table. Pfft...wannabe amatuer..

Yesterday I cut a walking stick from the hedge, smoothed it out with a knife, drilled a hole in it and put a loop through, for my old mum.

[QUOTE 4095012, member: 259"]It only counts as proper manwork if you had to buy a special tool or an expensive fitting that you will immediately lose. [/QUOTE]

I used a big hammer and made a lot of noise, does that not count? The tools that I used are now back in the tool box.

I did not start a manic dance routine when I found some earwigs, and I picked up some worms with my bare fingers to return them to the garden.
