Brassed Off (1996)- Danny's speech



Not much I can say but after watching the film 'Brassed Off' for the numerous time, I cried at the fact that although this film was produced in the nineties, our country hasn't improved in terms of employment but there is still hope.

RIP Pete Postlethwaite x

So be it - and indeed, RIP PP.

Shoes? I have so many pairs that I do not wear; used to, loved pretty ones, but now a) arthritis and b) walking down our rural orchard everyday to feed the hens, and visiting farm and garden shows, gumboots are easier! Though I do have some pretty ones for Press Days when I have to work in the rain.

Ann - well said

Pearl - how fab that you got to meet Pete, apparently Steven Speilberg considered Pete to be one of the greatest actors ever.

I love Pete, such a shame he went so early.

I'm ashamed to say I've never watched this film because I refuse to watch something half way through. A few of my friends are in it too! I recorded it recently and must get round to watching it xx

I always spent my half an hour to read this webpage's articles everyday along with a mug of coffee.

Shoe of the week

Do you use the expression 'save for best' ? So all your lovely shoes, clothes, make up or jewellery are saved for a special occasion and currently residing in your wardrobe waiting for its moment to shine? That moment can take weeks or months to happen, right? It definitely does for me.  I've got new clothes and shoes that haven't been worn yet, I'm saving them for something, some event or reason to wear them and they are just going to waste. I'm taking inspiration from a lady in my office who was rocking an amazing outfit for work, which included these gold loafer mules.  Her thinking was 'why save for best, wear it now!' Rather that restrict gold to nights out with cocktails, I'm thinking of adding that bit of sparkle to an office outfit.  So its time to re-think my wardrobe, dig out those shoes and stop waiting for 'best'. Shoes from Next , saving them for best?  The choice is yours...

Shoe of the week . . . Really? For the current weather we are experiencing, I should be nominating a pair of waders of the week!  With May apparently going to be the wettest month this year, a pair of wellingtons rather than a great pair of heels is what you need.  But why should they be boring. These wellies from Funky Wellingtons should be enough to brighten any dismal day. Got to protect those paws I can't forget my four-legged friends during the wet weather, our dogs still need to get outside and exercise but it doesn't mean they are waterproof!  So, a set of boots for dogs would be perfect to ensure those lower to the ground are protected from the cold too!.

Liv's first pair of heels

Sometimes you don't realise how quick time flies.  It only seems like yesterday that my niece Liv was a little girl , now she's thirteen and has a better social calendar than me!  She just seems to have 'shot up' and grown into a lovely young woman.  She's developing her own style that suit a teenage budget but is also age-appropriate.  What's also great but has still taken me by surprise is that she knows what suits her and makes her own style choices, long gone are the days of buying her what I think she'd suit!  She has a birthday party in a really cute club in Blackpool to go to and also my mum's birthday dinner in a few days, so she's bought two dresses for the occasions - a navy dress with scalloping, layered detail (for the club party) and a cream vintage style dress (for the birthday dinner) that I want her to wear with some brown lace up worker boots.  She's bought her first pair of heels for the party from New Look to wear with her n...
