I seem to have developed a worrying habit of going to the cinema to see the wrong film. Some years ago I went to see LORD OF THE RINGS, thinking I was going to watch a remake of the Lord of the Flies. Last night, in Cardiff, I went to see DUPLICITY, a film starring Clive Owen and Julia Roberts. I had remembered seeing a trailer with Clive Owen in it. The only trouble, it turns out the trailer had been for THE INTERNATIONAL. DUPLICITY is a poor man's HUSTLE, with an incredibly ropey and belaboured plot and wooden dialogue. But there was one line, which I remember, which rather hit home. It concerned a definition of love.It went something like this...She knows who I am, what I'm like. But she loves me anyway.
Are your cockles warmed?

Read any good books lately?!
Valleys, I always love coming to Cardiff. I'll be writing about my two days here a bit later.
AnonaLon, I'm reading the latest Piers Morgam diaries at the moment!
Glad to hear you're enjoying Cardiff - I spent 3 years at university there.
Best book I have ever read is They Have Their Exits by Airey Neave (appropriate book recommendation for a Tory blog I feel!)
Hang on! Hang on!!
I love Iain dearly, but this is the guy who has never seen most of the films on Brown's Region 1 DVDs!!
I trust him implicitly as a Political Pundit; as a film reviewer?? Non.
Having said that, a review of 'The Damned United' on Da Dale Diary would be of use to me, as what I know about Football could be written on the back of a microdot with a fat felt tip

Aargh. The smuggest Englishman on the planet. (Is ‘smuggest’ a word?)
To find oneself in total agreement with Simone Gardner is slightly unsettling.
If you’re a basketball player or basketball fan, I think you must have a good jordan shoes(or called air jordan shoes). The reason is known to everybody, not only beacause jordands shoes is a famous brand all over the world, but also there are many kinds cheap air jordans at the shop. At the same time, the cheap jordans are all good quality and beautiful. Mainly because cheap jordan shoes are also popular around the youngers. So, do not hesitate go to buy cheap jordans for yourself.
