Has anyone been to Fingringhoe?

I've heard it's got a pond and a phone box.

No.

Someone watched BBC3 last night...

I doubt it.

Elvis used to do a song in his live set in the Seventies called Never Been to Spain, within the song it confirmed a number of places where Presley had not been, Spain inevitably being one of them. From memory he also mentioned London. Will check when I get home but am fairly sure Fingringhoe was not mentioned so cannot provide any definitive information on whether Elvis has been there or not.

I'm sure he would've played there on the Colchester '74 tour.

I drove past Fingringhoe last weekend on my way to Colchester.

It was grey, wet and a little bit slippery.

Þetta er enginn þar nálægt eins skemmtilegt og Reykjavíkur þráð. Hverjum er ekki sama um Fingringhoe.

Ég er sammála. Ég er mjög vonsvikinn svo langt

Ég keypti Gore-Tex jakka yfir helgina.

Bloody foreigners.

A Bridge too Far. I love that film.

I like spotting all the famous people in it as well.

May get that but seen it a few times. There is one about Patton with Luke skywalker in it that I want to watch but can never find it.

You could watch Enemy at the Gates?

It has a scene where Galted's imaginary girlfriend w*nks off Jude Law.

Merry Christmas Mr Lawrence

If you're up for a mini-series I recommend Band Of Brothers and The Pacific.

Think I've seen that but may be worth a re run. The big red one is the film I was talking about.

I've already watched Bastogne 4 times this year and my missus deleted the first 2 episodes even though she denies it. I have the pacific and have only watched it once this year

I love those. I could watch them over and over again.

I liked the episode I'm elbourne whe they slept at the mcg

Loved Band of Brothers but could not get into the Pacific, just seemed the same thing in a different location and did not find myself caring about the characters in the same way I did with Band Of Brothers. If you want a slightly different world war two film Das Boot is good, but bleeding long.

This is a dull thread.
