Right, so a recommendation list for some decent less well known films. Do you underline them like engine numbers in an Ian Allan , when you've seen them?

Well that kills this thread then I'm not going to list my top 1001 films but it's a good list to check how many you've seen |

Yeah, actually thinking about it Si that's a good idea. It changes what the thread is about as the whole point of the book is to inspire and I sure ain't gonna type in 1,001 film titles  |

The Cabin in the Woods is complete crap in my opinion (for example). |

I don't personally Reg, but you might well do... Nice...yes, any list type thing requires underlining, or at least ticking off, depending on the format. My CAMRA pub guide to Wiltshire, being one of my favourites. Others are lists of LDP's and preserved railways.....traditional counties of Britain and Ireland visited; off shore islands of the British Isles visited; and ferry ports used for leaving our sceptred isle....and of course football grounds, extant and defunct. |

I did that with the Brakspear's pub map yonks ago when I lived in that area. When they still had a brewery in Henley of course...

Another birthday present and another list to tick off Reg, 50 of the greatest:  Ooops, I guess that deserves another thread...  |

I'd like to add, no country for old men, full metal jacket, saving private ryan and Drive.
I would also add the original planet of the apes first three anyway and original mad max one and two, not so keen on three although 100% better than the latest one,

Other lists which I've been working on for years, include, stone circles and standing stones, Neolithic long barrows and Iron Age hillforts. I also had a phase of brass rubbing in Cotswold churches, but the locking up of churches put a stop to that.
Ownership of all the 204 Landranger OS maps is also an ambition, but the gaps have to be filled by finding them in charity shops, library kick outs etc, not by purchasing them from dealers.
I'm fortunate, that I don't have an obsessive personality, because there's a lot to still be done.
