  1. I never noticed an X at the spot where Kennedy was shot. I stood on the exact spot and looked up at the window. It showed you the exact spot on a photo up in the museum. I have also been to Vegas, did you go to Circus Circus?
  2. You mention Gettysburg, I would have liked to have visited Manassas where the Battle of Bull Run was, also the Little Big Horn where Custers last stand was. I was also at Niagra Falls.
  3. "Fisherman's Wharf, San .Francisco" Yes I have been there too. "Dealey Plaza, Dallas, where Kennedy was assassinated." I spoke to a man who witnessed the whole thing and said after he was shot the car immediately drove of fast away up the road.
  4. Can anyone tell me how to download attachments as a zip file? Thanks.
  5. This is one time I would support the police, getting Thaksin's daughter elected as PM would be the best way of keeping the soldiers away from any elected government. Also you would get a pretty face to look at regularly instead of Cha Cha or his ex sleeping partner.
  6. What film? Do you mean Michael Collins?
  7. Common sense is not a thing the soldiers government have been known for.
  8. I have been to Graceland twice, visited the Theater in Washington where Lincoln was assassinated, also the house across the road, and see the bed he died in. Have been in Dallas and seen the place and spot where Kennedy was assassinated, been to the Alamo in San Antonio, saw the place where Jim Reeves's plane came down not far from a main road on the outskirts of Nashville. Visited the place in Los Angeles where you see the footprints of the stars. Anyone else like to tell of any famous places they have been to in America?
  9. It would be hard to say exactly what reasonable force is. If I came home and found an intruder in my house and put him down, that would not be the end of it, I would make sure he stayed down and was incapable of getting up, I am not going to try and not hurt him as he could have a hidden knife or even a gun.
  10. I am also a law abiding citizen, if I agree with that law, if not I will try and work my way round it, and yes, I have been in Jail, a tour of kilmainham Jail in Dublin.
  11. Is that unusual?
  12. I don't know about today, but there were plenty in recent years, you could see their regular meetings in the restaurant. Any bank I have dealt with when there were no English speakers on the staff, someone would hand me a phone with an English speaker who I could talk to. The manager did hand me a phone, but the speaker on the other side spoke Thai, I shrugged my shoulders and handed it back to him, he told me to wait then returned and handed me the phone a second time, again the speaker spoke in Thai, he then asked for my phone number and said someone would call me, nobody did. Make of that sort of service what you will.
  13. Personally, in this situation I would not pay attention to any law. Just use genuine common sense, and go by traffic conditions, weather conditions, and the condition of the lanes. Always keep to the nearest left lane, the hard shoulder, according to as I said, the various conditions. No policeman is ever going to book you for riding on the hard shoulder.
  14. That's fine thanks, when I was told the oil filter should be changed every 20,000Ks, he mentioned filters which gave me the impression there was more than one. So there is only one filter I need to bother about?
  15. Yes. That's exactly what I want. Thanks.
  16. All I want to do is protect my computer from any potential damage. Two nights ago the computer was shut down four times within about two mins with these power cuts. I kept turning it back on three times in a row, then just left it the fourth time.
  17. When I take my Forza for it's oil change, I would also like the filters changed. It has been 20,000 Ks since they were last changed, so as regarding the filters what should I ask the Honda agent to do?
  18. He will not get into a care home if he is in good health, besides who would be paying for it?
  19. That is exactly what they will do if no one can pay his plane fare back home.
  20. No he's not! He is getting weighed down by all these medals he has earned fighting for his country.
  21. It will cost them most of their pension for their power bills.
  22. I don't think Mrs Jones will have a problem there, she's 5ft 9ins tall.
  23. I bought a Lenovo AIO about three years ago, it was terrible with all sorts of problems, then I was advised to get an SSD fitted to it, and it has been great ever since.
  24. Can anyone tell me what you call the thing that you connect to your desktop that stops the computer from stopping caused by a power cut. I want to buy one and need to know what to ask for as my local engineer does not speak English. Thanks.
  25. That is about half the price of my evening meal at one of the local food stalls, so it would be a bit of a worry.
