I often worked 24+hr days just to get deadlines. So I find it hard to unwind, only learning now.<BR/>As for Colin he always plays the Mr Bingley type character, the nice one the safe one, he seems to have the same effec on women here too!<BR/>So somewhere in that cynical heart there is a romantic!Pazhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09567652179692699929noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-275768344368542415.post-2053409847551094252009-02-11T13:46:00.000+01:002009-02-11T13:46:00.000+01:00Yeah, it's definitely a guy/girl thing, that book....Yeah, it's definitely a guy/girl thing, that book.

I know I read things at that age, at school and elsewhere, which gave me nothing then but which I later appreciated tremendously. Not at all that you should necessarily try P&P again, though. ;-)Leisha Camdenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04768409807832229050noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-275768344368542415.post-38707201291664552682009-02-11T12:38:00.000+01:002009-02-11T12:38:00.000+01:00Maybe its a bloke thing but hated the book, I had ...Maybe its a bloke thing but hated the book, I had to read it in secondary school 13-18yrs. also was supposed to read Sense and Sensibility for final exams, but took the option to read 10 modern novels to avoid it, which luckily contained Lord of the Flies, Animal Farm and Tarry Flynn which was more interstingPazhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09567652179692699929noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-275768344368542415.post-22739426183125749222009-02-11T12:07:00.000+01:002009-02-11T12:07:00.000+01:00LOL!!I think she's a pretty good actress actually,...LOL!!<BR/><BR/>I think she's a pretty good actress actually, not a great one, and her face is kind of annoying (too expressive if you know what I mean ... ?), but she's good in the right parts. The problem is she keeps getting cast in parts that I think she is very unsuitable for, eg Lizzie Bennet in <I>Pride & Prejudice</I> (awful movie IMO).Leisha Camdenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04768409807832229050noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-275768344368542415.post-45810085050611546022009-02-11T11:29:00.000+01:002009-02-11T11:29:00.000+01:00I was going to say I want to see her in nothing, b...I was going to say I want to see her in nothing, but it might be taken the wrong way. she's not a great actressPazhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09567652179692699929noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-275768344368542415.post-11662956247970386052009-02-11T10:13:00.000+01:002009-02-11T10:13:00.000+01:00Fiennes used to play the hero type a lot, but afte...Fiennes used to play the hero type a lot, but after the Harry Potter movies maybe he's developed a taste for villainy too. ;-)<BR/><BR/>Yes, one reason why Knightley keeps getting parts like this is probably that she's such a big box office draw. People want to see her in stuff like this, I guess.
