The Culture Cup Round x - Adam is a naughty naughty boy

I love you all, not in a massively gay way, apart from Tina obviously.

991

Bravo...

Great team effort cuppers.

rrrrrrrrrrr

Yay!

Lol!

PMSL!

Right we can resume normal service now. Lyrics round, with an odd one out.

Whenever you hold me, There's some kind of magic inside you.

Set your hopes up way too high, The living's in the way we die

All I wanted was a sweet distraction for an hour or two. Had no intention to do the things we've done.

The love I know you need in me, The fantasy you freed in me, Only for you

seany,

I went by your old place of work today. I had to get 16 extra blocks from Austral Masonry in Prospect.

Nice pub there called The Royal Cricketers Arms (with nice beers) but I opted for 2 VBs in your honour. The first one didn't touch the sides.
I'd been a little stressed out just prior (quality control issues with the blocks I wanted and eventually got) and it was sort of hot.
Thought I'd give myself a treat.

Do you know the one? It's all alone on top of a hill surrounded by paddocks... next to the motorway. There's a place called "Wet & Wild" near there now.

Where we talking?

Did Wet & Wild in Gold Coast. Smashed up some kids on the big slide where it calculates your position (8 lanes) with some kind of witch magic.

Never really a big VB drinker whilst I was there. Was a Tooheys New man by prefeerence.

Actually, I might be mistaken... I think it was superfly who said he worked at Wonderland - which closed down in 2004.
For some reason I associated it with you.

After your post yesterday I thought I give the VB a try... the girl already had her hand on the tap so I made it easy for her.

Check out the Wet'n'Wild website... on the home page there's a chick with a wet camel toe! Thought I was seeing things....

Looks like the sort of place you'd catch a real bad ear infection!

I wouldn't normally ignore your quiz on your birthday and all, but I have not a scooby on any of them...

Good eye for detail, yeah?

Am getting the impression you are not alone in that respect Rick.

My music knowledge is pretty woefull mate, so there is hope...

Superfly will save us at some point.

I have googled them, so will be right on point come the connection part...

Rowley wrote:Superfly will save us at some point.

Lets' hope so.

My music knowledge peaked some time ago but I enjoy watching everyone else mop up the answers in quick time.

3 = Rita Coolidge - All Time High (it's the theme for Octopussy so I would guess that Bond films or films involving blue-ringed octopi/puses is the connection.

And, being inspired by my own, frankly excellent, post, the second one is the Aha song from the Living Daylights.

Got a bit excited at knowing 2 of them, it's the Living Daylights from A View To A Kill

For Your Eyes Only is the last one.

That's why I love you Galted, it is not just being a Villa fan and a film snob, you are nearly the full package.

So is the third one the odd one out... not a Bond theme song?

I've been nervous about your birthday for a while now, was terrified I'd bottle it on the big stage.

No, the odd one out is a little more subtle than that.

Rowley wrote:No, the odd one out is a little more subtle than that.

Thought that might be the case.

In all fairness it should not take Alan Turing to crack it.

I wish he was still around... I'm certainly no Alan Turing.

Do you construct these yourself or are they from some quiz website?

Rowley wrote:No, the odd one out is a little more subtle than that.

I don't think galted is in any shape or form subtle

Happy birthday mate, I've sent a cake but don't light the candles, they're a bad batch

Think of them myself, do tend to google the lyrics so I get them right and can avoid the less obvious bits from the chorus.

Happy birthday Jeff!

I'm going to let you down, Galted already got the only one I know. Buggered if I know the rest.

Rita Coolidge is the odd one out because the title of the song is not the title of the film.
(First one is The Spy Who Loved Me)

First is Nobody does it better?

I like Julius' answer but if that is not right... is it something to do with visual references (eyes, view, spy) and the other one is not?
Maybe another type of sense, perhaps?

Damn it Jules, that was not the odd one out I had in mind but as it applies I'll have to give it you.

The odd one out I had in mind was The Living Daylights, as the others were for for Roger Moore films and that one is for a Dalton film

Oh phuck, the Aha one was from the Living Daylights. A View To A Kill had the appropriately name A View To A Kill as the theme, guess I did manage to bottle it after all.

Any Idea why Toppy doesn't come on here anymore?

Can't get through the door. Wasnt the Living Daylights Duran Duran? Or a View to a Kill. One of them. Or Spandau. Perhaps it was Wings.

My mind is going.

Living Daylight was A-ha, Duran Duran did View to a Kill. The other Dalton was Licence to Kill by Gladys Knight and the Pips. Wings were Live and Let Die.

Came up with a theory when chatting to the missus and watching View to a Kill on Sunday. Basically when Bond is sh!t, so is society. Bond films in 80's sh!t, life in the 80's sh!t. Bond films since Craig took over sh!t, life since then is sh!t.

The only issue with your theory Sean is the Craig bond films are brilliant, well two out of three are.

I had the flu through Quantum of Solace, so may hold credance...

Quantum of solace was awful Rick. The other two are very good though.

Agree Jeff, hence QoS being Shiite and me having a shiite time, I was probably having a threesome or something during Casino Royal, just to further the theory's cause.

Only seen Casiono royal. They may be good films, but they are not good BOND FILMS.

Goldeneye probably the best.
Alec - 'Mmmmm, even tastes likes strawberries.'

Being a geek and having read the Fleming books the Craig films are closer to the spirit of Bond, as it appears on the page than most of the films. Also you sometimes need to strip things back and start again, and after the abomination that was Die Another Day this was absolutely necessary.

I have all the fleming books Jeff barring Chitty Chitty Bang Bang

Octopussy wins it for me, best Bond, best Bond girl, best theme song, best use of wildlife in a Bond film, best villain, best use of a tennis player in a Bond film, best ever bust-up on top of an aeroplane, clown getting killed, even had Faberge eggs which we'd recently learned about in school when it came out.  Haven't read any of the novels though.

Live and Let die - best use of a Voodoo God, Meryll Streep looking hot pointless Martial arts scend best theme tune (when i was young)

Assume you mean Jane Seymour Rick. The theme is still one of the best though.

I am that big a Bond geek I have also read a good number of the non Fleming Bond books. The John Gardner ones are pretty good.

Best Bond girl is Barbara Bach I'm afraid Galtman. Would also do the bird in Goldfinger off 2.4 children.
