Good morning everyone 
Cloudy and rainy here, forecast to get some sunshine late afternoon.
I hope everyone has a good day 
@slimfern posted:Cloudy and quite a bit cooler here today El ...not looking like we're going to get any sunshine, but who knows
Howdo Folks!
Still rainy here and the local weather recording site has the humidity at 95% which is very high for this time of day. Di some local shopping, all vehicles having lights on 
So it turns out that one of the stones at Stonehenge came from Scotland:

But how was it transported?
Overland?
By boat?
Or was Nessie involved

fantastic - love this - thank you EL
night EL slim moonsiee
Hope you're well El and Buddies 
Don't talk to me about summer and weather and I like daylight and hate dreary dark winter 
Totally robbed this year - like last. I'm writing in to Ian McCaskill through my medium.
Take it easy over the weekend and football is totally over-rated. I used to like it - not now. Overpaid joke it is.
I see on the BBFC site that "Batman Forever" (1995) and "Batman & Robin" (1997) are getting another release in cinemas.
I had the misfortune to see "Batman & Robin" in the cinema when it was first released. The film was so bad that no further Batman films were made for 8 years.

I was just about to add that. John Cassavetes had good taste
We all go sometime - it's what comes after. Lets see....
Wishing you all an upbeat Saturday 
Take care me chums and push the boat out. Have that cream scone
Jam first - the bone of all contentions
I do love you all and I'm not afraid to admit it
Take it easy. Have two.

At the risk of upsetting my Devonian pals, I would agree with you Velvet...Jam first!
Morning to you et al
I've never had a scone with jam or a scone with cream or a scone with jam and cream
When I was a child, on a Sunday my father would bake some scones and in the afternoon we would go to the park and eat them there. Fruit scones (raisins/sultanas). They were far better than any other scones I've ever had. Years later I asked him for his recipe but he couldn't remember it,

Oh El! that's shocking...you've never had a Devonshire Cream Tea
A fruit or plain scone (I prefer plain) with a generous spreading of a pure fruit jam and a healthy dollop of clotted cream 
You have to try one

BBC Two showing "Strangers on a Train" at 12.20 (1951) today though you've seen it before.
And 'Psycho' is on at 10 this evening, also on BBC2
What's with all the Hitchcock films on atm El...is it an anniversary or something?
Thanks for looking El

It's because Hitchcock would have been 125 a few days ago,
I didn't mention Psycho as the BBC often show it (last time was last September) whereas they hadn't shown "Strangers on a Train" since 2008.

I have both films in my You Tube Library, which means, I can watch either whenever I like
I've quite few Hitchcock films...

Do you have his "The Mountain Eagle" (1926) ?
Very unlikely as it's the one lost Hitchcock film
The British Film Institute would be very interested. It is right at the top of their Most Wanted list.
