Finally got around to watching The Irishman on Netflix. Excellent. I liked it when Ricky Gervais took the p155 out of that film at the Golden Globe...

Most motor racing programmes including BTTC ,BSB , WSB and UK motorsport , all off the TV and I don’t know the results of As it’s all recorded . Also as much sailing YouTube video I can find . Might have been mentioned but there's a Formula One / Driving thing in Netflix called Drive to Survive that's meant to be excellent.

Tried to watch in the past but 🤮🤢 I can't watch films like Saw where people are helpless and there is a lot of gore. It disturbs me. Slasher films I'm ok with, just not where people are helpless. Even the scene in Reservoir Dogs where he cuts his ear off gets to me. It was my ex who introduced me to the delights of the Centipdede films. We used to cuddle up on the sofa and she whispered all of her torture fantasies into my ear. Mostly involving what she wanted to do with my body. We had a safe word though. If I said ‘David Mooney’ I’d be saved from the saw. Bizarrely she was a vegan who would cry her eyes out an abandoned puppy but relish humans being chopped up. And Scottish. 😂😂😬

"CHiPS" from 1977...I thought it was cool then and still cool now...Watched the first two minutes while the motorcycye cops chase a Porsche?....Jon is on his radio while the bike is doing at least 60mph and Poch crashes the bike...gets up five seconds later and continues the pursuit....They don't make them like this nowadays...The Porsche gets away...I suspect they hid it in the lorry...

LA-15, 7 Mary 3 & 4 in pursuit of a man wearing an old flying helmet, a brown leather jacket and one raised eyebrow.

Watched a lecture by Jordan Peterson regarding personality traits.Mainly about the evils that we as human beings are capable of.The main theme was communism and the book The Gulag Archipelago.It was 1hr 40 mins long,he spoke most of the time with a few videos of related subjects today.

I've been watching Joolz Guides I would recommend if you're into London.
Some of those black bollards in London (especially near the Thames) are cannons, sometimes with a cannonball stuck in the top.

Classic, liked the original, Robert Shaw? And the remake. Saw a version on TV a few weeks back. Not the Washington one. Very good too.

If you can suspend belief,then they are.Surprising what you can like.I did not think I would like the first Rambo film,but I stayed with it and enjoyed it very much.Much the same with the first Blues Brothers.Also enjoyed Men in Black,one and two.
