Adrain Mole

I read most of them when I was quite young, and read the weapons of mass destruction last year, enjoyed them all

Has anyone read "The Queen and I" by Sue Townsend? Its a really good book, all about the royal family being moved into a council estate and living on benefits

(not that theres anything wrong with that and no offence to anyone who does live on benefits)

I was disappointed when I saw the Adrian Mole film last year to discover he had a Birmingham accent, I always imagined him to be a cockney!

He's from Ashby De-La-Zouche, which is in good old Leicestershire.
I drove through ADLZ the other day.

Yeah, on VHS and it was rubbish quality when I watched it! But alright, one of the those films where you imagine how everything is in your head and then you see the film and it's completly different!
Kinda low budget film though, nothing spectacular but nice to watch
