not sure what "premium draught" is but i think a nice cold pint of leffe would hit the spot... mmm... beer.

a couple "believe" fans eh? i always thought josh grobin was right up your guys's alley... he's a few shades paler than michael bolton. btw i'm throwing in a sweet ecuador prize pack as well - anyone else like to up the ante?

so far everyone but tuan thinks aviator's a lock - apparently (according to the bbc) million dollar baby has become the fav... we'll see.

after seeing the aviator last night i wish to change my pics - and erase those 2 and a half hours from my mind...

everyone is free to change their pics up to the time the awards start but that will all be secondary to the main prize which is dependent on the drunken selections we all made the first time... regardless of whether we say the movies or not (i have now seen one of the main pics, although with time and therapy hopefully i won't remember it...)

just to let everyone know officially i do change my best pic to million dollar baby. i accept that i have already chosen the lacklustre aviator and i shall live with the consequences, but i want it on the record that i picked the winner.
