Getting To Know Your Leader #1

Hello Citizens,

I like to think that I will be an open and accesible ruler of the planet so I would like to take a moment from time to time to give you a little insight in to how I like to spend my time when not putting the world right. Any Alan Partridge fan's might like to think of these "Getting To Know Your Leader" posts as mini-episodes of Anglian Lives. For those of you who do not know what Anglian Lives is, I suggest you endeavour to find out!

Anyway, here are some random things about The Mighty and Benevolent Chris.....

My Favourite Films:

Definite number one favourite is One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest. Starring my definite number one favourite actor Jack Nicholson.

Other favourite films include....
The Godfather (About as classic a movie as you can get)
Napoleon Dynamite (Gets better with each time you watch it!)
Goodfellas (I'm funny how?)
Castaway (Why did so many people slate this film? I thought it was fantastic!)
Forrest Gump (Tom Hanks is a very close second behind Jack Nicholson in my view)
This is Spinal Tap (I can quote every word of this film - almost!)
Scarface (Al Pacino is another favourite actor)
The Shining (Jack in all his glory!)

This list is not exhaustive, it could go on and on!

I'm Very Very Sorry!

Ok, Ok! I'm sorry! I know I haven't posted since November but there was Christmas and New Year and all that and anyway, I'm back now! Hip Hip Hooray!

I will endeavour to post more often. It's a bit late for new years resolutions, but I shall make it my belated resolution to try and post at least once a week. Promise!

TTFN,
The Mighty and Benevolent Chris
