I’ve been threatening to do a blog on the 8o’s for a while. I know I can be verbose and stretch a sentence into a page so I have decided to fragment the 80’s, a serialisation if you will. First up, the top 50 films of the decade, in my […]

If (2015)

26 May 2015 steviehorrell 0

If you can hold a stead upon your angry tongue, Choking on someone else’s ill informed untruth, If you can stay revenge’s readied hand, when it seems about to strike, Against lies and defamation, and slander so uncouth. If your body does not falter at the ebbing tide, Though emotions cramp every stroke, […]
