I so/so like Richard Armitage as an actor however I started watching S06 but stopped when I noted the new 'crew' wasn't as good.. I definitely preferred Winchester & Stapleton as a team Same here! I began first episode of season 6, switched it off again real fast. Very disappointing. I read that it got better later on but I really couldn't be bothered anymore. They should've ended the series with season 5. Best to end on a high. |

hate ta tell ya Crystal but he wasn't in Strike Back.. Philip Winchester & Sullivan Stapleton starred in that series.. I LIKED that series a LOT.. they recently played in the Internship (2026) together again.. was pretty good but more a made for tv instead of a blockbuster.. lotsa action tho Oh, it was Warren Brown. I would've sworn it was Ryan Philippe, haha. Winchester & Stapleton did season 2 through 5, then others took over for 3 more seasons. It wasn't nearly as good but they tried to keep fans watching by having Stonebridge and Scot show up a few times. Didn't work. Not for me anyways. 1st season was with Richard Armitage. |

CIA - new series, tonight's the 2nd episode. Seems very promising! With Tom Ellis, you know, Lucifer!
yup.. look at page 46's last post..
Ah, I missed that, soz... I'd kind of given up on following what was being posted as suddenly someone began posting endless tomes without clearly defining titles by making them bold, which didn't make it inviting to read through it. I see that has stopped so I'll catch up on the last posts :) |

One Mile: Chapter One - movie 2026 I rate it an 8. I liked it! Ending is a bit odd, but I guess it'll continue in One Mile: Chapter Two and wrap it up. Fighting scenes are good. I never like fake looking fights. Me thinks actor Ryan Philippe learnt a lot during his training for Strike Back, hihi. watched'em both.. wasn't that impressed by'em.. I give'em both a 5.5 at most.. not a big Ryan Phillippe fan myself.. I'm not a big Ryan Philippe fan either. The bloke can't help it, hihi, but it's that he took over season 6 of Strike Back and I wasn't happy that Stonebridge and Scot characters weren't there anymore. Apart from that the new crew made a mess of things so it all went t*ts up. That's when I started disliking Philippe as well, hahaha. |

The 'how do you feel' thread is FU again so posting it here, hihi.
Me's feeling a bit tired. Had to get up a little earlier to have my teeth cleaned. I never do well when I have to hurry to go somewhere in the morning. Affects my entire day as it upsets my head (TBI). |

Feel kinda disappointed. Was talking to a match on here , for a week or so . The conversation was getting hot and heavy. I decided to take the leap of faith and ask for a meet and greet over a coffee. She suggested we meet half way, as we were two hour drive apart.. Great . Then she wanted a latest picture of me and I naturally suggested the same. Pictures exchanged. Met up at the Cafe .. Absolutely NO spark or Chemistry... like her whole persona did not match the banter we had on messaging.... live and learn ....next !!! I hope she's not going to be upset that you talk about your date openly in the forums...
Not very gentlemanly to do that... And a good thing you met up to find out :) Also, maybe next time don't get into hot conversation, no matter how difficult this may be for a guy. More important to find out if you click and connect when talking about normal things. In any case, good luck with the next one, hihi. |

Day 3 of my new painting.
Worked on the horse. I'm actually quite happy with it! Now wait and see how it works out when I add the saddle, bridle etc. etc.
Close-up of the horse....

Not a movie, but I watched the series (1 season) 11.22.63 again.
A lovely ending. I cried

Filled in colour, worked on the shirt and chaps for the most part.
Not done with either, it's all just the very first beginning :)

Thank you, Merry!
--------- I've started another painting yesterday. It's going to be another cowboy on a horse. I like the theme!! Prep work took a long time but I got the very first beginning on canvas, hihi. Got to test out my new brush for the back & foreground. Happy with it! It works as I had hoped it would. Lots of work to do still, on everything.

Snow shoveling? When approx. is that over for you there?
I sat outdoors in the sun without a coat on for the first time on Feb 25th! (last Wednesday) Sun was really hot! My daughter sat in a T-shirt, hihi. This isn't the normal Dutch weather but yeah, weather has changed. |

EXs in a new relationship
|
|
|
About to date a woman who has three Exs. ... Fool me once: shame on you. Fool me twice: shame on me. Fool me thrice: I'm incorrigible. Could be me, but I fail to see how what you say relates to what you quote? There's nothing weird about someone having 3 exes unless they're 20 maybe. At a certain age having 2-5 exes is pretty common. And it also has no relevance to the OP not learning. I thought it was obvious, but apparently it wasn't. Having too many exes seems, to me, to indicate that the person 1) has difficulties making up their mind or 2) is not thinking things through before entering into a relationship or 3) is rushing into a relationship before both parties are ready. I'm 82 and have only two exes (not counting one-night stands) and the last one was my wife. We were married for 46 years, until she died. Had I had many relationships, it would clearly demonstrate that I had an incorrigible tendency (and an inability to learn from my mistakes) to get into doomed relationships. BTW, having many exes tells me that there's a problem with at least one of the protagonists. So you had 2, and you seem to suggest a lot of one night stands. That to me is a huge red flag. I wouldn't want a man who sticks his thing into anything and anyone. I'm not interested in a man-wh*re. To me that says he doesn't have any norms & values, isn't serious about finding love. As for what you say... that is the old model of relating. For someone your age that would make sense as in the past those used to be the norms & values. Things have changed. What people want and need has changed. I personally think a large number of exes can mean something is off. But 3 is nothing unusual. I think most everyone these days will have 3 exes. And let's face it: that's only one more than you have! |

Feeling good! ----> I started a new canvas today!
Just background work and bringing in the underpaint of the subject, but at least I got to use brushes, haha. Took me a couple hours to get my sketch sorted but then draw it on the canvas, then... brushes and actually doing something! Subject needs a 2nd layer of underpaint, after that I can finally get going with the real work. Not gonna be today, maybe on the morrow :D |
