He could join our regular Friday group - that is sometimes a near death experience.Any views I may express here are personal and certainly do not in any way reflect the views of my employer. Tis the rising of the moon..
Look, I just don't anymore, okay? -
I can't believe I'd forgotten that you can't take yourself too seriously in here. Nice catch!Originally posted by Alexander's Horse
Well there is a very Nordic answer for you.
Get him to say it on a rocky island in the Skagerrak on a hauntingly beautiful day and you've got a Bergman film.

I have the scene now - they are staying in a rustic fisherman's hut. The weather, a squall, forces them indoors. The fisherman's hut just happens to have the latest PC amongst the bric a brac and old fishing nets. It also happens to have high speed internet. He has discovered a group of friends from Australia and logs on. He start playing civ. There is a furious argument on icq. He swears and bangs the keyboard. In the background the beautiful young girl can be seen slowly undressing by kerosene lamplight. She turns her back and hops into the bed nude and alone. Fade to her staring off into the night, clutching the bed clothes around her as "bloody Hydey!" is heard. The last shot of the scene is rain pattering hard on the window pane.Any views I may express here are personal and certainly do not in any way reflect the views of my employer.
