Oh. My. God.

You ARE Holly AICMFP.

Nice one, Tom

Oscar's in the post Tom.
Good acting - made me look at ORG's website! And I agree with it!

Wow, I could not tell you were volunteers. There were tiny instants of self-consciousness and hesitation, but you were all amazing. The script was excellent too. Congratulations to all involved.

You didn't drink your beer! (That's how we knew you were acting )

Actually it was apple juice, so you didn't have to worry about it going flat (or me taking a crafty gulp and throwing the continuity all out)

Ham, ham and more ham! You did well tho, is that your real accent - or did you put it on?

You've almost got nursing a pint down to a fine art too :)

Real accent. I also talk with my hands a fair bit as well.

However... I tend not to letch so obviously over barmaids.

(I'm subtle you see...)

Yes, perhaps slightly less obviously may be better... Subtle as a brick is never good ;)
But still, I'm just jealous of anyone that has an accent - Growing up in the Midlands left me with no accent at all :( Even to the point when going on a school exchange my host family were rather bemused as to why I didn't sound English... And I now live in Scotland and get the piss taken on a regular basis... It's never easy!

Brilliant! And the video was useful and informative

Time to create an entry in IMDB for the film, and yourself!

Good idea - will do that.

Hey Tom,

Well done on the acting there. Enjoyed the video!

I also found this link and thought you may be interested to say how things are being handled here in the States.

Maybe that will inspire some hope!

ps- I would have emailed it but you provide no address :)

That's not only ham acting, but ham AND cheese!!!! OMG! LOL

And I thought I recognised the guy in the Office sketch (Felix Cohen) I went to the school next door to his! Small world.

The link to the Green Party Conference results in a 404.

Hi Tom
Watched your clip no sound (as not to upset the grumpy ppl in my office)
Must say without sound had the feel of the beginnings of a porn flick lol & I would the barmaid. At home will watch it again to get the proper jist of it.

I will certainly be looking up the open rights group website. It seems we live in a society where people are so scared of their own shadow that they accept the loss of all sorts of personal freedoms because they think it makes them safe. CCTV footage may have helped convict the 7/7 bombers but it did not prevent them any more than it prevents hooded yobs commiting crime. The same goes for people in favour of ID cards, 'lf you have nothing to hide' they say 'you have nothing to fear'. What happened to the notion that maybe if my day to day activities break no laws or injure no one then what l do is my own bloody business!
On a different note, you may want to see this article in the Oxford Mail on line http://www.oxfordmail.net/news/headlines/display.var.2442012.0.sorry_dear_we_cant_help.php

Well someone already stole my words, "Nice one Tom". Hammed up or not it is bloody true and the message came across well.

Why do you think I left that country for Switzerland, not trying to make anyone jealous or anything, after all it was the flight part of the "fight or flight" that won for me. I guess I am just a wimp.

I am increasingly apalled on a daily basis what the leaders of that country are doing. Who said the UK government is democratic?

Actually, I quite like being watched.
