You were...

...only supposed to blow the bloody doors off!

Sticker spotted on a Mini parked nearby.

I was originally intending to use this as my blip tomorrow on the day of the England v Italy footy game.  But, having missed the World Coracle Racing Championship in Shrewsbury last week, I'm planning to use a shot from the Severn Hospice Dragon Boat Festival for tomorrow's blip. (Hoping for the best.)  However if it continues raining in Wales, and the river keeps rising, then it will probably be cancelled anyway and I'll have to find something else to blip. (Preparing for the worst.)


For anyone unfamiliar with the film 'The Italian Job' (the original one starring Michael Caine), the plot is based around the theft of gold bullion in Turin and the subsequent escape using three Mini Cooper Ss.

From Wikipedia:
In November 2004, Total Film named The Italian Job the 27th greatest British film of all time.  The line "You were only supposed to blow the bloody doors off!" by Caine was voted favourite film one-liner in a 2003 poll of 1,000 film fans.

The scene including this line can be seen on YouTube. It's brilliant!

Thoughts of Homer J Simpson:
"Why can't you people learn to speak my language? I learned to eat your food!"
