...and I'm going to embarrass CF, further....this morning...in order to talk about how Italian intelligence had 'intervened' let us say....in order to lighten up the whole horrorshow...whilst exposing what had happened which was to result in such a horrorshow, as run by the british monarchy...."and run by the Norwegian monarchy from behind" replies BI ONLINE...well, let me take you back to the late 60s, Blackheath....hmmm....remember little colin and little gill, in relation to 'spanking'?....little colin used to get over-excited when his mother 'overdid it'...to the point where she then decided to give him cold baths....made him sit in the tub, for hours...in order to overcome that unfortunate 'reaction' let us say...it's all got to come out, in the end - hasn't it?...oh and yes, he did eventually sleep with his mother, as an adult (she gave in)....Italian intelligence were also to report that he used to sleep with his brother, whilst touring the USA..."what a family"....anyway, I haven't actually seen the 'sponge bath' routine in 'the beguiled' as yet ((however, I did read the director's anecdote about just how long that took to film - hours, apparently) and seeing as I don't go to the cinema anymore - safety measures, you understand...which is such a pity because it used to be one of the few pleasures of my 'miserable' existence etc etc...and well, go figure....when you have got 'people like that' on your back..."you have to be extremely careful"...indeed. Donna was to tell me that she keeps a baseball bat by her flat's frontdoor...Eileen atkins was to do something similar - see previous notes upon that unfortunate encounter, in her dressing room....anyway, a chain on the door - has always worked for me...go figure.
