Haha. Shanna just posted me the book of A Walk To Remember. It's by the same author and it's meant to be better than the film of the same name, kinda getting into the head of the guy as he goes into sermons and stuff and changes his views.
Never seen or heard of the film myself, got quite excited at first but now I see that if I buy said DVD then it seems likely to never be watched. Recommend 'The Dreamers' I admit it is a little odd, but it is about French people, so I guess it is not really odd at all...
We interrupt this walking talking (blogging?) advert for Mandy Moore films to bring you this important historical announcement:
The History of Mayonnaise
Most people don't know that back in 1912, Hellmann's mayonnaise was manufactured in England. In fact, the Titanic was carrying 12,000 jars of the condiment scheduled for delivery in Vera Cruz, Mexico, which was to be the next port of call for the great ship after its stop in New York.
This would have been the largest single shipment of mayonnaise ever delivered to Mexico. But as we know, the great ship did not make it to New York. The ship hit an iceberg and sank, and the cargo was forever lost.
The people of Mexico, who were crazy about mayonnaise, and were eagerly awaiting its delivery, were disconsolate at the loss. Their anguish was so great, that they declared a National Day of Mourning, which they still observe to this day.
The National Day of Mourning occurs each year on May 5th and is known, of course, as Sinko De Mayo.
I am so happy to be in your country and able to look at people talking about films and food and ships and all sorts of things. Back home in my country all we talk about is going on strike and the short dresses the women have in the summer. It is so boring to all the time be talking about womens bodies, and things like 'Does Annabelle have a nicer bottom than Mary?' 'Yes she does but Mary has bigger breasts.' 'This is true, but they are already heading for Biarritz!'
It is all the time we are talking about this and it is so boring! I am so glad to be able to talk about Mayonaise and writing in note pads, and good films and history and everything we are not talking about in France.

It's a love story...
I'm assuming you mean the film.

He is faithful indeed!
Oi Chris...
'A Walk To Remember' is in my DVD collection, BUT I've never watched it!
Let's not forget that the only reason it's there is because a certain Mr. C Billett convinced me to buy it one sad day on Oxford Street.
Oh dear.
=o)
Well, watch it then! The film is... strange. It has good points. The book is meant to be less cheese...
i love that there is a string of guys discussing a walk to remember... hilarious..
I WISH I COULD QUIT THAT FILM!
