This still is from the trailer for my upcoming book. My ‘good guys’ are about to board the plane and head out on a high-stakes mission, from their base in the Crans-Montana plateau. The shot is inspired by The Expendables, but these guys aren't mercenaries and they defintely aren't 'normal' soldiers.

REPOST by Monday, June 1 for a chance to win this signed 5"x5" mini print of my Kubrick Director's Chair photo taken with my Rolleiflex on the set of FULL METAL JACKET in 1986! I'll pick one winner at random and announce next #ModineMonday. Good luck! If you'd like to support the @FMJDiary project and exhibition, you can purchase one of these signed mini prints here: ebay.us/m/TeCqI9

Yesterday I had a tooth extracted. When it was time, I grabbed the chair rails and braced myself for the big needle. I was fearful, predicting pain from a mishap years ago. But there was none. There was tugging and crunching; gross but fleeting. Afterwards I saw my hands shaking. My hands don’t shake. I almost felt shame. I was a bit out of it too, but underneath I felt relief. I paid the receptionist a small ransom and left. The drive home was long, navigating crazy variable speed limits with half my face numb. I took a couple of wrong turns, but I just focused on the road and kept reminding myself the bad tooth was gone. All that from a simple extraction. I can only imagine what major surgery must be like.

@offgriddesigner @metoffice Central Casting?

Why do @metoffice meteorologists look so smug if climate change really is an existential crisis? Surely they should exhibit fear, rather than display duper’s delight after every lie.

Woke up thinking about Niles and Daphne. Niles’ naughty infatuation was comedy gold. Down the line we were on the edge of our seats, rooting for them to get together. Great writing. I think my mind is telling me to make sure my characters are just as compelling. Right, back to work then!

Just enjoyed a mega pint of Cosmpolitan. (Yeah and I had a tooth taken out today. I am bonkers me.)

Is it still a cocktail if you have it in a mega glass, as tall as a pint?

@MattCas04807118 Zack Polanski’s dentist get's about.

Any thoughts or offers? ❤️

@RogerMooreFan They took it to a fun place. Quite a good gag.

What are your thoughts on this Octopussy moment? #JamesBond

@CrewkerneGaz I'll have two of what you've been having😆

Carol Vorderman has a blocked toilet and calls for a plumber to come and unblock it. The plumber is Reform UK’s Robert Kenyon who quickly identifies the cause of the issue, but it’s no easy task. {satire}

@offgriddesigner @hammondweather The weather reports are specific about the temperature in the South East reaching 33°C. I wonder which of the 100 non-existent weather stations will deliver the data for them.

These people are not meteorologists. The modern breed of weather forecasters like @hammondweather are nothing more than sponsored scaremongers masquerading as experts. Shameless.

@ThrillaRilla369 I've never been arrested for DUI but there is this one time back in the mid-90s, when I drove my friends up to the shop to buy more loopy juice. A lone police officer noticed us. He was about 20' away and he said, "Don't drink too much" and walked away. True non-story, story.

Who else can honestly say they have never had a DUI I'll wait 🙋‍♂️ 🍻

@PCW2k @ThrillaRilla369 Ridley Scott might be interested for his next Alien pic. Just a thought. 😅

@JamieM_Imagine @ThrillaRilla369 We do the fries in a hot dog.

Does anyone else ever use bread for their burgers or am I just poor? 😂

@Loveimage @ThrillaRilla369 Objection. Hearsay. Lol!

@JamieM_Imagine @ThrillaRilla369 Oh plz NY invented that

@bren_tony12345 @ThrillaRilla369 True and I feel the same about doughnuts tbh. By now I don't think most of us are talking about bread and fries.

@JamieM_Imagine @ThrillaRilla369 that looks like a heart attack waiting

@LolNo1375409 @ThrillaRilla369 Now that is what I call stonking international diplomacy. Peace maker in our presence. I am humbled. 😆

@JamieM_Imagine @ThrillaRilla369 Counter offer, put your crisps on the cheeseburger, trust me, it's good.

This is the that stuff can unite nations. Empirical evidence at last. Who would've thought Pittsburgh would've done this with one of their sandwiches? And you brought this to our attention. Nobel Peace Prize is deserved right here. 🤲

@JamieM_Imagine @ThrillaRilla369 Fries on a sandwich is a thing in Pittsburgh

@BeefMcQueen @ThrillaRilla369 These guys will have much to say aboot that then, eh!

@JamieM_Imagine @ThrillaRilla369 It’s ok because they might be part of the USA soon 🤣

@JustWalkinBye @missbrans @ThrillaRilla369 The White House need to see this and fast. 😅

@JamieM_Imagine @missbrans @ThrillaRilla369 Meeting you halfway is fries dipped in a Frosty from Wendy’s.
