Look after Mr. Bond. See that some harm comes to him. Hugo Drax to Chang in the Bond film Moonraker.

Mr. Witt, sir, be quiet now will you; there's a good gentleman. You'll upset the lads. Colour sergeant Bourne, in the film Zulu.

- that is funny Jem - I think because it was so unexpected

Re: I am SPARTACUS

God forgive me but it reminded me of my cranky old Grandfather, who always sat in the same fireside chair, he was as pale as a sheet and not a move outa him, It's just like something he would have said if you said hello to him, "No I'm not dead Son, just really pissed off." Oh memories!
