  1. Yesterday, I went to CW at 1pm and received my ticket which was #303. At the time #155 was being served. Went for my usual slow-paced walk-about downstairs stopping for lunch and to do some window shopping. One hour later I checked the board and saw that #186 was being served. I went inside with the intention to see how many of the 'A' counters were staffed but bumped into my agent on the way. After a brief chat, she asked for my PP and paperwork and said she would do it for me. Told me to find a seat somewhere near. She returned 10 mins later with everything all done and dusted. In the past I've always got there at 1pm for reporting and usually I'd get away around 3pm. Yesterday was much busier than usual.
  2. Way to go Thailand. Next you'll be inventing the wheel. Quote: Patterson returned to the problem of his initial experiment and the contamination he had found in the blanks used for sampling. He determined, through ice-core samples from Camp Century in Greenland taken in 1964 and from Antarctica in 1965, that atmospheric lead levels had begun to increase steadily and dangerously soon after tetraethyl lead began to see widespread use in fuel, when it was discovered to reduce engine knock in internal combustion engines. Patterson subsequently identified that, along with the various other uses of lead in manufacturing, as the cause of the contamination of his samples. Because of the significant public-health implications of his findings, he devoted the rest of his life to removing as much introduced lead from the environment as possible.[8] UnQuote.

  3. Plenty of times. Never a problem. Once I shaved my legs the tights would slip off easily.
  4. Smiley Lewis - I Hear you Knocking (1955) Dave Edmunds' cover. (1970) My first single and my introduction to the world of Blues.
  5. So they're making a surprise visit on Friday? Hope nobody informs Takky as it will ruin the surprise.
  6. Actually the Thais did start building a wall to run along the Thai-Malay border about 30 years ago. Never completed and only a short stretch was built and possibly still remains.
  7. The above vid reminded me of an under-rated musician by the name of Harry Chapin. Six-String Orchestra - Harry Chapin What Made America Famous? - Harry Chapin (1974)
  8. If trying to learn the guitar to play this song do not, under any circumstances buy Ralph MacTell's book.
  9. Are you a professional a55hole or just a gifted amateur?
  10. Isn't CW the base of operations for Big Jok? Not so long ago he was caught in a media maelstrom and then all of a sudden, nothing. Maybe he's back to pen pushing. I did a 90 day report on Tues. 14th. Usually there would be agents hanging around the main doors but I didn't see any of them at all. I got there at 1pm and the number being served was A127. Mine was A289 and I got seen at a few minutes to 3pm.
  11. Also from the tv series 'Resident Alien'. Avi Kaplan - Get Down. Not sure where I heard this one but I think it was from 'Damnation' tv series. Avi Kaplan - Change on the Rise.
  12. Then led me to a Rock-a-Billy tune called 'Adam's Rib'. And then this one. And no, it's not CCR. 'Ask Around' by The Roues Brothers. Fancy some Cajun music? Titled track from 'Undaunted' by The Roues Brothers.
  13. Came across this track on the tv series 'Resident Alien'. The Roues Brothers - Hawaiian Blue. Which then led me to 'Let's Go Find Johnny'. A song about Mississippi Fred McDowell.
