am sure we've all had the usual charity bags/takeaway leaflets through, but just had an interesting one.

A copy of The New Testament, The Greatest Story Ever Told.

blooming heck, how much did it cost this particular church to get them printed? Surely that money would have been better spent in other ways?

There is no price too high to pay for saving your immoral soul, Albs

[sunny-dave]

Immortal!!

Immortal!!

[sapelesam]

I must have missed that one, does it have a happy ending.

[Jackdaw33]

Right first time, Dave☺

[albaqwerty]

rofpmsl!! you had it right first time Dave :-))))))

[albaqwerty]

gee, ta Jack :-D xx

Dunno sam, but I ain't going to read it to find out lol

[mccfluff]

I have to argue with that. A bear called Paddington - that is the greatest story ever told.

[Islay]

Wasn't that a film staring Charlton Heston?

[Islay]

Poor Albs she is always on the end of some brilliant typos!

[sunny-dave]

But that's a fairy story, fluff ...

... ah, yes, right ...

[sapelesam]

I don't think Charlton Heston ever played Paddington.

[albaqwerty]

for me, it's anything to do with Winnie the Pooh.
love blustery days and pooh-sticks,

Islay, yep, wasn't he Moses or some such? :-)

[mccfluff]

he might have done....

can you imagine that.....7 bears for 7 bears, starring Charleston Heston and Aunt Lucy

[albaqwerty]

Islay, when I tell Mr Alba, he just creases and points at the hanky box with tears running down his face :-D

I'm a lover of typos. xx

[Islay]

Lol McFluff! Kiss me Paddington, Planet of the Paddingtons, Soylent Paddington !!

[albaqwerty]

Charleston - wasn't that a popular dance in the 1920's ?

[sapelesam]

I think the greatest story ever told was by Verbal Kint (Kevin Spacey) in The Usual Subjects. Also my favourite film of all time.

[Islay]

Fat Alba and her imoral ways! mmmmm I always thought you were a nice lady!!

[albaqwerty]

I'm also a fan of being right wing :-)

ooh, poor Patsy, that was utter genius !

Re the film The Greatest Story Ever Told: Charlton Heston played John The Baptist.

Also, Max Von Sydow played Jesus. David McCallum played Jesus. Michael Anderson Jr. played James. Telly Savalas played Pontius Pilate. Donald Pleasance played "The Dark Hermit" (a personification of Satan). Roddy McDowall played Matthew. Pat Boone, Angela Lansbury, John Wayne, Sidney Poitier and Shelley Winters all played smaller roles.

Max Von Sydow, David McCallum and Michael Anderson Jr. are the only surviving main cast members.
