Sounds great, M'lud.
Good sort of job for a clever bloke.
Good Luck!

Very similar to mine then....After a lottery win, natch, buy up and restore a twenties cinema, and have silent/thirties/forties/post war classic/artshouse/European/Rest of World nights on the same nights each week...... Silents on Sundays, etc. two shows daily, all programmes including relevant ads, newsreels, etc. of the periods...
Bit of a Bay Window, what??

Yes a lottery win would come in handy for this dream to be realised.

I studied fine art, unfortunately didn't have the money to go onto university and carry on. Everyone knows what it's like don't they? Once you start working full time your responsibilities grow, and you have bills to pay so you work to live. I still draw and paint now and would love to do something with my artwork, however becoming successful as an artist isn't that easy. It would be my dream job.

I would love to have been an artist or a musician.

Sadly, I'm talentless.

Restart my career as a rock climber! Ambition to do the Salathe Wall on El Capitan in Yosemite.
Oh and an F1 driving pornstar who plays lead guitar with a rock band.
