We have many differences; as I watched a lot of Wild-West movies when I was young, I do refer to some items differently to others here in the UK.
I haven't any myself, however my Dad has; I will ask him tomorrow if he can send me one and I'll upload it here.

I agree..but I am a big Sean Connery fan so likely that is why. I still remember when the first of the Indiana Jones movies came out. It was like the serial cliffhangers I used to see at the local movie theater on Saturday afternoon always in black and white. The special effects were awful back then, the acting less than good, and the stories predictable but it was what all of us kids enjoyed even before there was TV in our homes. Each serial episode (less than an hour in length and always shown with a full length movie (usually a western one) would end with someone hanging off a cliff (not just that but other dangerous spots from which you surmised there would be little or no change of escape) and then on the screen a sign which said.."Continued next week."
We loved it back then when we were 10 or 11 or 12 and life was so much different than these days with modern tech where we can watch movies on our phones. It was what it was and such fun!
Now we can watch a whole season of shows in a couple of days...I agree..but I am a big Sean Connery fan so likely that is why. I still remember when the first of the Indiana Jones movies came out.

Right, John, like with Netflix you can serial binge.
Have, and usually will.
I read the books in my youth...a little younger than you are now.
It's my pleasure.
Huh??? I'm confused. What did I say?
Okay this is for scaring me like that!smacks you upside the head You know, we really are turning into a comedy skit! We're like the modern version of "The Three Stooges" even though there's only two of us.
My apologies for being absent over the past few days, I have been on a business conference and internet services were unavailable.
I will begin posting here again shortly.
