Watched that and enjoyed it, Stephen Graham has a wide range of acting abilities and in this movie he plays one of his darker characters. He also has a minor role in Peaky Blinders: An Immortal Man . Having only seen a few of the Peaky Blinders episodes I decided to give the movie a try, enjoyed it, a great cast, along with Stephen Graham are some of my favourite actors, Cillian Murphy, Barry Keoghan and Tim Roth. Following the movie searched for the Peaky Blinders series and am currently binge watching the whole thing.

Have traveled, and explored, plenty in the last 10 years, from the Golden Triangle to NST , from Kanchanaburi to Roi Et, next trip will be further south. Still up and about regularly but slowing down a little bit now. Still plenty to see and plenty of remarkable moments to remember.

I think the Atto 1 and Atto 2 are coming to the Motor Show, might be worth a look. Can’t comment on all the BYD range but it appears the Dolphin beeps and gongs stay off i know they do on my Seal also.

My driving licence was sufficient 1 year ago.

Some reports coming from the U.K. about the MY 2026 Seal and how owners are feeling its a step backwards from the 23/25 version. Lack of flexibility on the instrument cluster means you are now stuck with this layout, no option to adjust. Or dark mode. No rotating main screen ( some might not care but i use it in portrait for navigation ), seems like BYD will drop this feature for future cars. Crappier wheels, their words not mine. Apparently running the Sealion 7 software so i guess will have the updated UI but they got that on the Seal in the U.K. anyway.

My 2 year + 3 month allotment of 2GB per month expired Feb 30th 2026 ( car picked up Nov 30th 2023 ) yet I receive messages via the app saying it will expire March 1st 2026 and now April 1st 2026, probably an automated recurring message that will repeat after the 1st of each month ! As stated before on here Rever are at a loss on how to progress with this sim expiration/subscription program and prefer to just let it slide. I see in the U.K. they are offered a yearly paid subscription ( £99 I think ) when their 1GB 2 year free subscription ended. Rever missed a trick there and could have been pulling in a fair amount of baht ( with a lower subscription fee of course ) if they had pulled their fingers out !!, not everyone is aware or willing to simply hotspot their phone. On a slightly different, but related note, I am always surprised at how much cheaper things are here than rip off Britain. I pay half the price for iCloud storage by using Thai location as opposed to the U.K. one. I just paid £530 ( 22,900 baht or around 700 USD ) for a MacBook Neo delivered from the Thai Apple Store whereas the exact same thing would cost me £699 ( 934 USD !!) from the U.K. store. Just reminding myself why i left the U.K. to live here !!

Ayutthaya limited to 500 baht , not sure of status of gasoline or diesel. Last time i entered a pump was around 2 weeks ago to get 400 baht worth of 95 in a container for the mc. They limited me to 300 baht back then.

Thanks, i will add them to the one i got for my drawing of the lead singer of Chicory Tip when i was 11 .

So, the moobahn i live in has decided to lay asphalt on top of the existing concrete and, although they have apparently laid a nice carpet down ( remains to be seen, especially in the rainy season ) they don’t go right up to each individual house, most of which have a concrete/tiled ramp up into the garage/carport. This is kind of understandable with the amount of different angles and lengths of ramps adopted by the owners. What it has left me is a “ channel “ approximately 30 cm x 5 metres long which i know from experience will retain water ( always had a puddle here after raining). ( ignore the broken tiles, just another on my to do list ) There are drainage points either side of the ramp but a dip in the concrete right in front of the ramp meant there was always a small puddle. I hadn’t tackled this earlier, been here since 2017, as have seen others attempting to divert the puddle using a build up of concrete failing badly, had considered some drainage holes but feared hitting the main water supply which runs somewhere under the ramp or washing away the subsoil, nobody wants a sinkhole opening up outside your house !! Irrespective of any water just this channel across my access will become annoying very quickly as i usually line the car up straight to go inside. Anyway, Thaiwatsadu sell 20 kg bags of asphalt premix so i figured i could tackle this myself and be careful enough to leave a small rise in the middle of the gate to send water towards the drains. So my question ( finally ! ) is has anyone used this product ? What tips can you give me ? Am assuming better adherence is created using some tar like substance beforehand ? and heating the product would make it easier to work with ?? Will visit Thaiwatsadu to check out the product but don’t hold out for too much information from the staff so am relying on the good folks here at AN to give me some pointers. TIA

Scarpetta gets some pretty bad reviews, mostly from readers of the books who say it strays too much from the original. That aside there’s a lot I don’t like about this only 2 episodes in ( maybe it will improve ? ). Nicole Kidman and Jamie Lee Curtis should be able to do better imho, the scenes between them are mostly just sisters fighting and are unnecessary. The black/gay niece also takes up too much of the storyline chatting to her girlfriend. The serial killer storyline seems almost secondary ! Then there’s the flashbacks which aren’t always clear what time zone we are in. Most of the main characters are featured in both times but as there is 28 years between sometimes you have to figure out who is who. Seemed like they purposely made the boyfriends/husbands extremely different to identify them, they certainly give off a Starsky and Hutch vibe. Has all the makings of a good story but let down by too many incidentals, secondary storylines get in the way and some unusual choices. e.g. the first flashback ( from 2026 to 1998 ) is accompanied by The Animal’s House of the Rising Sun which seems a bit off, of all the songs available pre and including 1998 they went with one with no relevance to the storyline and is usually reserved for 60’s flashbacks !! Okay, so maybe am overthinking this but it is not keeping my attention, will persevere, maybe it concentrates more on the story we want to see and improves !

Okay, with you now, on my iPhone the black quote selection box always stays near the bottom of the screen as in my previous photo when I have highlighted text to quote, even if I scroll the page up or down.

Okay, doesn’t happen to me on my phone, you haven’t said if it happened to you on phone or pc. I get this: Do get a few things popping up though, the black quote selection box, the options under the quoted text.

That happens, usually you have to clear the reply box out and start again, sometimes it will give you the option to continue with the reply or clear the editor and start again. Trying to highlight a portion to quote can be tricky sometimes and sometimes it will go up, or down, very quickly to highlight the whole text, am on an iPhone, difficult to separate the red dots if they are close together. Sometimes easier to hit select then reduce the highlighted text down to what you want. I find the “ quote “ button is in a better place now than before, maybe it was close to the emojis before ? Used to be in a black box but now is in blue text and I haven’t hit it for ages so am pretty sure it is better for me, at least. Could be in a different place on your phone or pc i guess.

Exactly, right now it is okay but other times the page will time out and not open. It is the only application that does this, i can stream a movie without issue but AN is intermittently problematic.
