Hatari!

I saw the film in the early 1960s, and I can't remember a thing about it - except the music.

'Lo sugar I am raising my glass to you. (Drinking a Pursuit of Happiness cocktail.)

I love Mancini's music. A Shot in the Dark is another fun one.

Well, the cinema was on an air force base, and while most of the base was still WWII era, the cinema was newish, smallish, and pretty flash.

I remember as a teenage school army cadet sitting on the ground and watching with hundreds of others a movie shown on a big white sheet outdoors at one annual camp. Can't remember the name of the movie though.

Awww I bet you were a cute cadet

I was a Ranger Guide, instead of getting to watch films we did the Duke of Edinburgh award, including tramping for a couple of weekends over moorland and up hills. My favourite bit was at the end when we finally got to eat up the emergency supplies of chocolate

Mine, too, when the RAF sent us out on Dartmoor for a few days (and the New Forest).
And the Beer consumed upon return. . . .

Tell me more about this Forest.

Enchanted like 'Black Forest' cake?

Tell me more about this Forest.

A thousand years or more ago, England had many trees. Fair-sized bits of woodland were cut down and the land turned into farms.
In the south of the fair land of Albion, the paths of the forest criss-crossed animal tracks and some rivers.
Come the arrival of William the Bastard and the bloody Normans decided that there was a Really Good Place to hunt and joined two areas together as a Royal Hunting Forest [which meant that the peasants stood little chance of hunting their own food as hitherto]. It was given the name "New Forest" and it's been that since about 1079.

And it is Enchanted [or was in the 60s when I grew up round there]. These days its a "National Park", together with all that chaos which is engendered by "Administration".
