This is a level of genius I can only aspire to. And yep, definitely speak like I write. It's not quite the blessing you might imagine it to be. |

Film - Brief Encounter- Stiff upper lipped naughtiness.
Art - The Fighting Temeraire - Admire the beauty of the original at the National Gallery or look at the back of a £20 note. Ponder the allegory of changing times. |

"This sounds like a task for someone a bit less common than me so I’ll sit this one out."
It's interesting reading different posters takes! You don't have to do a wanky one like mine, it's good to have a myriad of things that you can look up/be inspired by.  |
