Just goes to show what an iconic mark that film has left on popular culture. Stanley Kubrick was truly one of a kind.

Naunton Beauchamp Worcestershi...
Our doctor's surgery has installed a 'Pod' recently for routine stats to be taken, BP, weight, height, BMI.
I used it today for the first time for routine annual old Codger check-up.

tI announced that I was a stone, (14lbs) overweight. I thought it might not let me out again: "Open the Pod door please,"
"I'm afraid I can't do that John, you must stay in here until your BMI reduces to 24"

Mentioned this to the Practice Nurse on emerging who said it was rather harsh, it's all bollocks anyway, and I'm a good weight for my height.
Thank goodness for human intervention.

Thanks to BD-123 I now finally know just how many pounds there are in a "stone". smile

At least I had the opportunity to find out just how many days there are in a "fortnight" when I was miserably stuck reading Shakespeare in high school. biggrin

2010 is most certainly not a forgotten sequel for me. I even saw it in the movie theater by myself while my mom did some shopping at the mall.
