Who wants to live forever - Queen

There must be an echo on the Forum ;-)

I feel that this is a good time to point out that "Who wants to live forever" was written for one of the best films of the 80s... Highlander!


Who could forget the moving scene when Heather (good scottish name that) was aging whilst Connor stayed young, and he stayed with her til she died an old lady. *wipes tear from eye*


There can be only one! >:D<

Not to mention his ...mmm... aussie accent in ..err.. zardoz.


And to think, if it wasn't for Highlander we'd never have had the superlative Highlander II The Quickening (named after the equally riveting accountancy package), or even the unfathomable Highlander III The Sorcerer, or the quite simply unmatchabley clich?d Highlander IV ironically named Endgame, or even the as yet unreleased Highlander V The Source.

Or Highlander the Series (of terrible programmes) or Highlander The Raven, beggaring belief by being even worse than all of the above (other than Highlander IV of course).


All of this from an extended Queen video. Amazing really.

Actually I had a secret soft spot for the series for reasons I don't think I'll ever understand, silly but watchable late night tv. The rest of it was truly woeful however, and if ANYONE can make sense of Highlander II I'll eat my hat.

Or something...and the pointless shield in the sky, and the terrible nonsensical editing. Reminded me of Metro with Eddy Murphy for that, editing so bad, scenes just had no context and made no sense.

      Vet recommendation

      By NewWave · Posted

      I don't know how it works now but my late parents had little money when they were retired (just state pension and they rented their flat) and they used to take their cat to the Blue Cross (In Victoria if I remember correctly) where treatment was free for those who could'nt afford a private vet. I sincerely hope similar is available still because for many elderly their pet is their main source of comfort and company.

      Be careful in local shops

      In a couple of places locally, I have come across this. I am fairly sure that they attempt to do the bill in their head. If you just say , “no, I think it’s x” they start again and get to an agreeable number, or find a calculator. I don’t think it’s a malicious attempt to swindle people. Just not great arithmetic.

      Bitey Fox.

      There are excellent charities like the Greenwich Wildlife Network who will help if you report any concerns with local wildlife. Foxes are wonderful creatures who had been forced into our town and cities and are just doing their best to survive, we should take care of them when we can.
