who would have thought I'd do 5 of these?

I'm not sure about this week's Where The Feck.

I think it may be a bit difficult and obscure.

But that's a bit like me.

So, from the picture, Where the Feck is Amanda?

looks like a film quiz

Last week's quiz was all about smell, so to continue the senses theme, this week it's about sight or lack-of. So it makes sense that it's a picture quiz. Name the film from the picture.

I smell a Monday Movie Quiz

This week's Monday Movie Quiz is a stinker.
yeah, hmm.
That is, all the quotes are about smells. Name the film in each case.

Update-
1. Let me help you. Step down. Here we go! The drum major's widow! She's worn his coat since the day he died. The horse's head has lost an ear! That's the florist laughing. He has crinkly eyes. In the bakery window, lollipops. Smell that! They're giving out melon slices! Sugarplum, ice cream! We're passing the park butcher. Ham, 79 francs. Spareribs, 45! Now the cheese shop. Picadors are 12.90. Cabecaus 23.50. A baby's watching a dog that's watching the chickens. Now we're at the kiosk by the metro. I'll leave you here. Bye!

2. Ladies and gentlemen, / May I have your attention, puh-lease? / Are your nostrils aquiver and tingling as well / At that delicate, luscious ambrosial smell? / Yes they are, I can tell. / Well, ladies and gentlemen, / That aroma enriching the breeze / Is like nothing compared to its succulen source, / As the gourmets among you will tell you, of course. / Ladies and gentlemen, / You can't imagine the rapture in store... / Just inside of this door! / There you'll sample / Mrs. Lovett's meat pies, / Savory and sweet pies, / As you'll see. / You who eat pies, / Mrs. Lovett's meat pies / Conjure up the treat pies / Used to be!


3. ... this was supposed to be my weekend off, but noooo. You got me out here draggin' your heavy ass through the burnin' desert with your dreadlocks stickin' out the back of my parachute. You gotta come down here with an attitude, actin' all big and bad... [ yells] and what the hell is that smell? cristin got - Independence Day

4. Tom Ace. Pleasure to meet you Sir and may I congradulate you on all your success... you smell TEREFFIC! I was just telling Melissa that one of the first things we learned back at... Stanford Law... was the modern proliferation of food poisoning claims against wealthy, private homeowners. In fact, if one were so inclined, one could make quite a lucrative law practice on little else. How is everyone feeling tonight?

5. I love the smell of napalm in the morning. You know, one time we had a hill bombed, for 12 hours. When it was all over, I walked up. We didn't find one of 'em, not one stinkin' dink body. The smell, you know that gasoline smell, the whole hill. Smelled like... victory. Someday this war's gonna end... aunty got - Apocalypse Now

6. I like the smell of my hair treatment; the pleasing odor is half the point.

7. How did it begin? He walked into my office with his cockamamy scheme! You can make more money with a flop than with a hit! We can do it. We can do it. I can't do it. We can do it. I can't do it. Good-bye Max! Oh Lord I want that money! I'm back Max! Come on Leo we can do it! Step 1: Find the Play! See it, Smell it, Touch it, Kiss it! Hello Mr. Liebkind! Guten Tag, hop hop Guten Tag, clop clop! aunty got - The Producers

8. This is me. I think it's apparent that I need to rethink my life a little bit. What's my problem? First of all, I'm a rat. Which means, life is hard. Second, I have a highly developed sense of taste and smell. aunty got - Ratatouille

8. German shepherd starts barking. He's barking at me. I mean, it's obvious. He's barking at me. Every nerve-ending, all my senses, blood in my veins, everything I have is screaming, "Take off, man! Just bail, just get the fuck out of there!" Panic hits me like a bucket of water. First there's the shock of it... -BAM!... -right in the face. I'm standing there drenched in panic. All these sheriffs looking at me, and they know, man. They can smell it. Sure as that fucking dog can, they can smell it on me. steve got - Reservoir dogs

9. This may smell bad, kid, but it'll keep you warm until I get the shelter up... Ugh. And I thought they smelled bad on the *outside*. aunty got - Empire Strikes Back

10. Do you smell bacon, Garth?
I definitely smell a pork product of some kind.

11. And now, my beauties, something with poison in it, I think. Something with poison in it, but attractive to the eye, and soothing to the smell. Poppies... Poppies. Poppies will put them to sleep. Sleep. Now they'll sleep!

plenty of life left in the failing equine

Easy-peasy one this week in the Where the Feck series of pictures. Not really working out, this idea, is it? But if Channel 4 can show 312 series of Big Brother and they can make 4 Die Hard films then I am going to stick with it a bit longer. So, from the picture, Where The Feck is Amanda?

by the numbers

This week's movie quiz is all about numbers which should make it easy to identify the film from the picture.

part 3 of the Tales...

..in which George meets the local wildlife.
there are no hedgehogs in Canada so he didn't really know what to make of the spiny little thing on a walk the other night. It was sat there in the middle of the pavement and did it's trademark thing of curling up in a ball rather than play whatever game it was that George wanted to play.
We walked on a bit, but George did his trademark move of planting himself and refusing to move. So we turned around, but blimey the little blighters can move fast when they want to.
It was half way down the street. With that sort of speed you'd think they would just cross the road instead of just letting cars run them over.
The other British fauna that George has met is a chav. Obviously I didn't let him get as close to the chav as to the hedgehog.

It's the Grand National all over again

The Grand National horse race, for those who don't know, is a big deal.
People who do not normally watch or bet on horse racing often have a go on the National, even if it's just the office sweeps draw.
I had to stop having anything to do with it after several disastrous years.
My first bad news was my selection's jockey fell off and was injured.
One year my horse fell, was badly injured.
The next year, the horse was too ill to even turn up on the day.
There was another injury.
The final straw was when a horse died.
So that was me finished with The National.
For a few years I have been a watching The Tour De France. I thought I had left The Curse of the National behind because a few days before the start of the tour 1999 I was watching an interview with a certain young texan and was so impressed with his attitude I decided he was going to win. He did, that year and a record number of years following too. He retired a couple of years ago and the Tour just wasn't the same for me. I didn't watch it at all last year.
Then during a re-cap show I spotted an interesting cyclist. I think it was about stage 3 or 4 and I was impressed by Alberto Contador. (he is espanish! Manuel)
I had found my Lance replacement.
He went on to win the tour.
woo hoo.
I was looking forward to seeing how he did defending his title this year. But he went and joined a stupid team, Astana, who have been banned from the tour this year.
According to BBC sport "Alberto Contador has confirmed he will not leave Astana to defend his Tour de France title with another team.
Race organisers chose not to select Astana for this year's Tour because of their implication in doping scandals over the last two years.
Contador said: "I will not ride in the Tour for any other team. I hope this ends all the speculation and rumour." "
Is it a surprise that I don't like sports?

if at first you don't succeed..

The last one of these, hmm, was not a complete success, so another try. As Le Tour started at the weekend, this old photo seems apppropriate.From the picture, Where The Feck Is Amanda?

it's that day of the week again

This week it's all about pictures. Name the film form the single frame and there is a bit of a connection, find the word that links all the titles.

Where The Feck

We have been back in Blighty for 2 months now, which sounds like a long time when I look it like that. I have a couple of posts planned, but for today I am going to try something new. Inspired in part by Matt and other peple I know who are away in exciting places and also by a lack of money, I have decided to start a weekly picture from past travels. The twist is, from the picture, you have to say Where the Feck is Amanda.

The prize is ..... I will send you a postcard from sunny Leeds!
