[quote name=Comapring Chrissie Hynde to Lilly Allen is like comparing a fine Ch?teau Margaux' date=' to a bottle of Lambrini.

]


My thoughts exactly Brendan...



but not sure anyone will know who Lily Allen is in 30 years time SMG...

don't think she got the same staying power (or class for that matter) as Chrissie Hynde

lilly allen is good at what she does and has made the most of her abilities, so i guess i admire her for that. Chrisie is in another league however and her talents have stood the test of time. Maybe being vegan is the way forward if you want to look good at 58.

The first two records are little gems of pop rock, them and a greatest hits are all you need really.

I read an interview with CH some time ago where she was talking about giving up the drink.

Her reasoning was along the lines of 'I didn't mind being an alcoholic, but when I started looking like one...'

Snorky I've never associated Hynde and drummer Martin Chambers with heroin, are you sure?

Supposed to marry JL, but ( IIRC ) JL was hungover/ speeding , so he sent Sid down to take his place and Ch refused to go ahead/ ran off


With regard to CH skag - um.

>Would you still fancy her if she hadn't been in all those kinky films?>


I have liked her since "The Lacemaker" She is a most extraordinary actor. If you think her films are kinky you should really get out more >:D<


Not sure if Isabelle Adjani is 50 yet but on my....I say..oh my!!

Well thanks for that Kel - if you don't like the thread you don't have to comment. Surely we are not all on here to talk sense. Life's rather dull when we all talk sense.

I have only seen two of her films, as far as I can recall.


In Ma Mere, her character slits her own throat while having sex with her son. There is a subplot involving BDSM.

In The Piano Teacher, she plays a masochist who embarks on an affair with a teenage student. She instructs her student to beat her up and have violent sex.


I think these films are more than a little risque, Simon... but perhaps this kind of thing passes for innocent family viewing in your household?

Jeremy - aren't you thinking of Isabelle Huppert?

    • https://www.assistancedogs.org.uk/information-hub/assistance-dogs-emotional-support-dogs-and-therapy-dogs/   hello   i’d be interested to understand if anyone.has experience of Assistance Dogs especially for autistic children of different ages for emotional support and therapy   There was a prior thread on this topic on EDF 10 hrs ago but it had limited experiences and there was a (claimed) change in UK legislation in 2019. Whilst the industry appears unregulated/unlicensed, there are several providers (approx 15, perhaps more) who claim to have fully trained dogs or say that they can help families to train a puppy/young dog over the 18-24 months.  The latter obviously comes with a need for strong commitment to the challenge. Costs for a fully trained assistance dog are quoted at £13-15k albeit they claim £23k total cost to train the dog. On the one hand, this could potentially be a useful solution for some families if such a dog was truly trained as their websites claim and such a dog was accepted in public places and schools etc… On the other hand, I don’t think that I’ve ever seen an assistance dog of this type or in this context (only for a blind or partially sighted person) and hence a real risk of fraud or exploitation! The SEN challenge for families coupled with limited resources in schools or from local authorities or the NHS as well as the extremely challenging experience of many families with schools offering little or no support or making the situation worse leaves a big risk of lots of different types of fraud and or exploitation in this area.          
    • Hi there  We live on Woodwarde Road backing on to Alleyns Top Field.  Our cat Gigi has gone missing — it’s been about 24 hours now. She is a cream Bengal. Could you please check sheds, garages, or anywhere she might have got stuck please? And if you could keep an eye out or share on any local groups/forums, we’d really appreciate it. Photo attached.   Thanks so much! My name is Jeff on 07956 910068. 
    • Colin.    One for the old school.   Just saying.
