"As a veggie I can't really promote meat, but I did always enjoy a steak and the food here! I was a real carnivore"

"Frederick Douglass' book on his life as a slave is superb- the only disappointment was that he couldn't say how he came to be free, for fear of reprisals and giving away vital secrets others were depe"

"Interesting selection, nice presentation. Do you like pre-60s films too, or just a colour list?"

"Yes, she's one of my favourites too :)"

"Some excellent films here :) How about Mizoguchi? Tarkovsky, Kurosawa, Godard among others have rated him the greatest Japanese master. Scorsese, Malick admirers too"

"Ah yes, Robin Hood was another i'd thought of. Thanks for the suggestions"

"I started off with hats I like then expanding from there...In My Fair Lady it's harder finding good horizontal shots from the film for the hat"

"Some good uns there. I was thinking of the My Fair Lady one last night, left it for a while as Audrey Hepburn was already included. Maybe she'll end up with others here?"

"Thanks for the vote :) It's on the comprehensive list I've linked to, but I've not seen it, will have to check it out more. It doesn't seem so much on the radar these days"

"Baa, baa, help, quick! No worries, there's an invisible high wall between them."

"Franz Marc and Landseer come to mind, but I don't think I've got a deer one on my Marc list. Added now."

"I'm glad you like the Hannah Lewis Davies painting, look forward to seeing the rest :)"

"I'm very glad you like the Hannah Lewis Davies paintings, and thanks for adding them and other lists I've done here. 4 of the 5 Welsh artists here are women"

"I'm glad you added the Colour of Pomegranates list, thanks :) I had hoped people might have some fun with finding the gifs (but of course there are more exciting things to do!)"
