Booth & The Bad Angel - Tim Booth/Angelo Badalamenti

Angel and the Bad Film!

Advantages: Nice scenery and music
Disadvantages: Wooden Acting, weak story, bad effects

Angel and the Badman is now ranking highly in the worst of the John Wayne films. I really cannot believe that I watched it! John Wayne plays the role of Quirt Evans who is being chased on horseback by gunmen. He gets injured and soon falls from his horse only to be found by a young innocent woman called Penelope. Penelope takes Quirt home to her family who are Quakers and although they do not like the lifestyle of Quirt they do give him a bed and start to nurse him back to health. During the recovery of Quirt Penelope is constantly by his side making sure he is doing OK and she soon starts to have feeling for him but when Quirt wakes he has different ideas and is not prepared to give up his lifestyle and become a Quaker for Penelope. Quirt does however repay the family by getting their water supply reinstated but he is slowly ...

Review of Angel And The Badman (DVD)

The Booth Museum, Brighton

Advantages: Free admission, lots to see
Disadvantages: None for me

consider that without such collections our understanding of the natural world would be far less, especially considering that several of the specimens within Booth's collection are now extinct. Birds were Booth's first love and it is therefore not surprising to discover that the bulk of the museum is dedicated to birds. These specimens are housed within glass cages that have been designed to resemble the species natural habitat so each of the glass cases hold several different species of bird. These include common British garden birds right through to exotic Birds of Paradise. I am a keen ornithologist and I thought that the majority of the stuffed birds looked very authentic but there were a few that looked a little bit odd, especially some of the small Passerines like Finches where their naturally vivid colours appeared to have badly faded. I ...

Review of Booth Museum of Natural History (Brighton)

Booth's come out top

Advantages: Supermarkets as they should be.
Disadvantages: I am trying to think of one

Well, certainly here in Lancashire. Having been an ardent fan of Tesco''s for many a long year, I was beginning to find that standards were going down the pan, food was either going back to the store or into the bin because it was innedible, staff looked disgruntled and some had the charm of a pit viper, so, time for a change. In Clitheroe, we are blessed with quite a choice, two major chains and Booth's. The latter was visited and browsed, prices were on a par, some things were a tad more expensive, but, for food that is edible, well presented, with a choice that ranges from the four corners of the globe, to well represented local produce. Items were duly purchased, from courteous staff, who take time at the till and don't whip things through so fast you have no idea what it happening. That was it, we were hooked, now, I ...
