I was over on Kowloon-side for lunch today, afterwards i semi-conciously wandered to Sino Centre 信和中心, Mong Kok to take a look-round ...having been told lately that the video shops in the basement are selling parallel import DVDs from Japan & Europe at great value prices .... wanna know exactly how cheap eh? ...
in total, i bought sixteen films (some of them were recent and some oldies), all of which I have seen before, postively enjoyed watching and are nice additions to my DVD collection ....
So just how much did i pay for these 16 x DVDs? ... A. $200 (USD25), B. $400 (USD 50) or C. $600 (USD 75) ...
Can anyone further impress me and name both the Tom Cruise movies there and also his leading ladies in these films? -- haha
Oh yeah .. over lunch, i was asked by my dejeuner partner to name my 5 favorite love songs (western) .... piece of cake i thought instantly, but actually once i started giving it some serious thought, it is extremely tough to just name 5 ..... now having spent most of the evening reluctantly wittling it down to a "most-loved" shortlist of about 40 songs .... i suppose if i had to select just five, they are as follows (in no particular order of preference):
Crying In The Rain - A-Ha's version of the Everley Brother's classic
