I've just finished watching. Episode 2 in particular is brutal. I know football is an emotional game and long may that continue, however, what happened to Beckham was a disgrace. Overall it was a very good and informative watch. Talking points included: 1. It appears he inherited his OCD personality traits from his dad. 2. Alex Ferguson is a sociopath. The way he dismissed Beckham and refused to talk to him was a disgrace. 3. The Real Madrid players were comical, and seemed to take a shine to Beckham - except for the ridiculous amount of publicity and extra work he brought them. 4. And there's no doubt he loves Victoria. However, that second episode would leave a scar on anyone, we Scots are known for being crabbit at times, but dear me - the English know how to hold a grudge. Shocking.

If you see their Thai partners, you'd think it was a horror movie. #justsayin'

Out on a saunter one day with an effervescent and charismatic friend we happened to pass a house that was the scene of a horrific familial murder. The son cracked up and sent his parents plus sister to the next life. The good news is his dog escaped and continued life as a back-door opportunist, fathering many a mangy street pup. The house in question was glorious, a real Thai mansion, not a McMansion built in the backwoods by a deluded farang. As we passed, a brave squatter emerged, brave for two reasons, one - he was living in a murder house! and two, it was falling to pieces, I was convinced he was going to be clocked on the napper by a falling piece of masonry. He could easily have been a plus one to the death tally of said mansion. Do you believe in ghosts? have you ever taken advantage of your Thai partners superstitious nature, maybe by suggesting that the land she is set on buying has bad juju? Do you think that spirits hang around, waiting to swoop after a few years ( for example, ten years ) on unsuspecting forum members - a blast from the past, a mythological creature reborn? ( ie, me ). Or are you the more practical sort, just like the dog that ran for its life and became a stud? No doubt this post raise a few evil spirits, such is. ps - hello.
