a merry Christmas, happy Chanukah, whatever your beliefs may be and a safe and prosperous 2008.  Smile  Cheers

A little early, I know but tomorrow (12th December) is our last full working day for the year here at www.national.archives.gov.za as the 13th is set aside for our end of year function and we are at work for only a few hours on Friday. I won't be at or near a PC until next year so therefore this early post.

Rich blessings, warm hugs and everything that's good to ALL of you good peoples: thanks for putting up with me and all my crap for the last year or so!  TeddyR

See you all in 2008!

Hope I'm not too late to wish you a Merry Christmas & New Year, Trevor!

I wonder what it's like to celebrate the holidays in the middle of summer?

Still here for a while.....  Smile Warm greetings to all!  Smile

I have never had a white Christmas, our festive season is warm and sunny, spent outside by the braai (barbecue) and the pool. If we don't have a Weber, we steal one and if we don't have a pool, we use dynamite   Buggedout  and Hey Presto!: one burst waterpipe later, we have a ready made pool.  TeddyR

That film you mentioned, Yaddo, has got more titles than I have undies...Tigers Don't Cry, Running Scared, Portrait of An Assassin, Fatal Assassin, African Rage, Target of An Assassin, The Long Shot......

It was one of those films that the SA goverment invested heavily in to prove to SA's naysayers that SA was a place for progress and was also financed by two gentlemen named Thys Heyns and Van Zyl Alberts, both of whom had fingers in the cow pies of government, especially in the Department of Information.

Many films involving A list celebrities and filmmakers breaking apartheid era boycotts of SA and working here, were made in this way in the 1970's with direct government knowledge and involvement such as Gold, Shout At The Devil, The Golden Rendezvous and even The Wild Geese to some extent.

Despite the government meddling, Target of An Assassin is an unusually exciting film and it follows the Jon Burmeister book well enough to be very similar. Most of this film was made in Pretoria and the surrounding areas: they even used the Pretoria municipal buildings for John Phillip Law's assassin to try and shoot the President from in his motorcade and the Hartebeespoort holiday resort and cableway for the action scenes. Just FYI: those cablecar stunts were real, no CGI or greenscreen or wirework involved there at all.  Buggedout

Enjoy the break Trevor and best holiday wishes.  I've also never had a white Christmas, in fact it's been a while since I had a Christmas where I didn't wear shorts...

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.
