Ford Anglia. Chick magnet.

Eichhörnchen · 04-10-19, 09:54 AM

Yeah... why didn't James Bond have one?

Your go, mate

Eisenwurst · 04-10-19, 05:29 PM

i would've replied earlier but for time zones.

Ford Anglia, great car, used to be thousands of them around at one time. Along with Ford Prefects, Simcas, Hillmans. All good basic cars - affordable, no BS technology.

Anyway, lets get this show on the road

.

Here's a still from a very famous film co starring Helen Mirren. Great costumes, gotta love the loincloths.

Who is the famous politician prominently displayed in this shot?

Clue :- it's a bit of a trick question.

^ Malcolm McDowell? Tinto Brass's Caligula?

Jimbuna · 04-11-19, 06:06 AM

Quite an 'interesting' movie.

Eisenwurst · 04-11-19, 06:19 AM

@ Catfish. Sorry, no. The famous politician is someone else featured in the pic.

@ Jimbuna. Considering all the big name stars in the film, I feel the director could have made it a better movie. I actually found it quite disturbing.

Another clue :- You could say he got in on the "donkey vote".

Jimbuna · 04-11-19, 06:25 AM

Incitatus made a Consul by his owner Caligula.

Eisenwurst · 04-11-19, 07:23 AM

Absolutely.

Caligula had a short reign as Emperor - 37 to 41 AD. But he threw some fabulous parties and squandered an entire empire's wealth on self indulgence.

( I'm following the script - official histories now ). He set the standard for future mad emperors - Caracalla, Elagabalus, Commodus....

He had great contempt for the ruling class ( himself excepted of course ) and expressed it by making his horse Incitatus a Senator and possibly a Consul ( Prime Minister ). Could Incitatus's spirit still live on in some of our current lot of pollies?????

Anyway, Caligula made a lot of enemies and when the time was right they struck, killing him and his entire family, plunging Rome into a familiar pattern of anarchy.

Was he that bad??? There's not many near contemporary sources left, and they read like modern day tabloid women's magazines, you know the ones that publish all the trash about the Royal Family. ( Why they don't sue I don't know ).

In a future age will they be regarded as the true history of our times???

Over to you Jim.

Jimbuna · 04-11-19, 08:04 AM

What exactly is this?

bracer · 04-12-19, 02:53 AM

Is there parts of an airplane in the photo?

Jimbuna · 04-12-19, 04:27 AM

Yes

bracer · 04-12-19, 06:46 AM

Is there also an airport gate?

Jimbuna · 04-12-19, 09:54 AM

Nope

Catfish · 04-12-19, 12:45 PM

Inflatable?

Eichhörnchen · 04-12-19, 01:39 PM

Space Shuttle?
