I use Skype app on my smartphone. Add £5 credit. 1p a minute

If you use the auto top-up feature on the skype mobile app it will automatically top up if your credit gets low. The last thing you want is in the middle of a phone call it to drop out because you ran out of credit.

On hold times before you get through to any of the banks in the UK at the moment are rather excessive. I spent 2 hours 37 minutes getting through to Barclays.

They wanted to give me a voucher but I pushed and got a refund for flights to Spain back in April.

I believe it requires a good amount and good speed of Internet to use the map. I'm not sure how long do you need but we have 90-day unlimited packages as follows. 

-Unlimited Internet with Maximum speed of 1Mbps . Fee 802.50 THB(Inc. VAT), valid for 90days. Apply press *104*591*5474451# call

-Unlimited Internet with Maximum speed of 4Mbps . Fee 1,284 THB(Inc. VAT), valid for 90days. Apply press *104*594*5474451# call

-Unlimited Internet with Maximum speed of 10Mbps . Fee 1,926 THB (Inc. VAT), valid for 90days. Apply press *104*598*5474451# call

I use maps to navigate all the time and the 1Mb is fine

Is this another worldwide virus?

Do you need voice text or data?

I find the Dtac app quite handy, Go to the packages and choose what's good for you. If you're just doing maps and face timing 1 Mb speed is fine.

They do a 30-day unlimited 1 Mb package for 350 baht plus tax.

It's data only but if you need to message somebody on WhatsApp line messenger or FaceTime somebody it's perfect.

I wouldn't bother trying to get a 2-year-old truck as the price will be almost the same as a new one.

try to get yourself a new vehicle and look after it because whoever owned the second-hand one probably did not.....

This sort of thing has happened to two friends of mine whilst buying trucks. One of them asked Toyota for his deposit back went to the next dealership which happened to be Mitsubishi and bought the truck off the fourcourt and drove it away.

Suggest you try the same.

I have watched this weekend the documentary about Shane MacGowan and it's a <deleted>in' masterpiece. I love this man and I love The Pogues, I think Shane is one of the best songwriters ever. And I would love to drink some beers with some of this guys.

 

Now it's possible to rent the movie but only in USA, I made it with a VPN connected to USA. This is the trailer:

 

 

That looks awesome, I'm going to seek it out. Reminds me that Kirsty has passed away as well. She was an incredible talent.

Spanish Flu killed 50 million people, 2.7% of the world's population.

My apologies Ed, you are correct.

1/3 of the world's population We're infected by Spanish flu.

My favorite christmas song, no doubt. I love The Pogues! Shane McGowan is a genious, or at least he was. Now there is a documental about him produced for Johnny Depp and directed by Julien Temple, I want to watch, in San Sebastian film festival won the audience award.

 

Now this lyrics are censored in the BBC.

 

I put the video:

 

 

My cousins in London used to jam on a Sunday afternoon with some of the pogues in Willesden London.

Not sure if Shane never managed to get there.

I haven't taken the flight yet Chris but this link may help you.

I have many properties in UK and  have only lost one tennant due to them getting divorced.

My rent is slightly low, I allow animals and allow them to decorate (after approval of colours etc) If anything goes wrong I get it fixed immediately.

I choose my tenants wisely and allow the house to be at home.

After the one tenant I lost I did a full redecoration of the property and rented it out in less than one month including the refurb.

I think the OP needs to do a refurb and sort out any structural issues with property. You are only losing money because the property is not rented out.

Sometimes just putting the country code 44 instead of +44 has worked for me on various forms.

Western Australia is at the top of the list, but they have grouped all of the Australian states together.  That's not realistic as Australia is a continent bigger than Europe !

Sorry to put you right but Europe (10.18m square kilometres) is larger than Australia (7.692 m square kilometres)

Retox game on. Soi Honey/second road.

Their system can get nearly every game in the world on.

I have had some very obscure games shown now.

Des the manager is very accommodating.

The AstraZeneca numbers are under scrutiny because a focus group got half a dose and then a full dose of the vaccine. Surprisingly they actually had a better reaction than the group that got the full dose twice.

The AstraZeneca vaccine is a lot easier to store than Pfizer and Maderna.

Unless you are going to pay for your inoculation I doubt you will be able to choose which vaccine you are given.

It will be based on your need.

Some countries are working on a system called the common pass where it will log what vaccine you have had and when.

Until/if this is agreed the quarantining will stay in place.

If you increase the pressure in your tyres then the rolling resistance is reduced and also the steering would be lighter.

Fuel consumption is better but grip on the road would be reduced.

This would lead to a sensation of light steering and the car freewheeling easier.

The Oxford AstraZeneca vaccine has to be non-profit because they used public money.

Although it may not be as effective as some of the other vaccines that have hit the headlines it is easier to store and cheaper to produce so bodes well for the poorer countries.

As our bodies adapt to this new threat it will become like the winter flu is.

In 1918 the Spanish flu killed 500 million people, 1/3 of the world's population and now it is just a flu that we get an annual injection for.
