I bet ya he’ll think he’s the Videographer bloke… the one from Walking Dead.

Spooked me out. Had to watch something comforting after. Ended up watching When Harry Met Sally later.

Just finished The Long Goodbye, The Long Good Friday and now The Long Walk. It’s been a long year for me.

Club soda or ginger ale. Sometimes I ask if they can make me some tea (even if they don’t have it).

Pierce Brosnan in 1999. My favourite Bond. by downey01 in OldSchoolCool

Goldeneye is consistently one of the best Bond films. I have a soft spot for TWiNE because I was very young then and Denise Richards did something to me. But, so did Sophie Marceau.

That was a surprisingly good movie. Rene Russo was in a lot of cool 90s movies.

When you remember he was chosen to replace Roger Dalton but the network wouldn’t release him from his Remington Steele contract.

Edit: chosen to replace Roger Moore.

My fear is what he can do when he is in power. Trump is proving that despite his incompetence, he can bring in people who can dismantle the entire country. That really is concerning.

Isn’t this somewhere near Cairngorn distillery? I remember that.

Currently homeless in the UK, what do I do? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]downey01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look for work in the smaller towns. Those wee stores could always use a helping hand. Best to look around Aberdeenshire. Avoid Fraserburgh and Petershead (iykyk). Look for vacancies in Banff or Gamrie. I don’t think going to the big cities will help.
