On a Tiger, trying to stay awake for the rugby.

It's all them Thai Catholics, fish on Fridays. Seem to recall also includes no dairy or alcolhol. Oh well, "Blessed are the Cheesemakers".

That time already for the pun related Eggnog jokes. What happens when you drink too much of the Eggnog? Ya start Kari-yolking. Eggcellant Mr. Burns.

Always smile when I see Kubrick's famous Moonwatcher's realisation scene. "2001: A Space Odyssey" was nominated for an Oscar for costume due to the apes. However the Oscar went to the Charlton Heston" Planet of the Apes" instead, as most of the voters thought they were real apes, not actors in costume.

Hope there isn't a Cherry Ripe Inspector Beagle as about to import a couple of boxes.

Reminds me of my good old Smithfield Market breakfasts washed down with a couple of pints, just need to add some sauté patatos, lambs fry and some steak. Just what you needed after a night shift. Also prefer a tatty scone as opposed to the potato rosti.

I'm no lawyer, but speaking as the bloke from down the pub, if as Richard Drabble KC argues "The EU bans removal of people to countries to which they have no connection ... that part of EU law has been retained in UK law following our removal from the European Union.” So, as Rwanda is in Africa, and Africa is known as "The cradle of Humankind ", I.e. the place where we all originated from, deporting migrants / asylum seekers to Rwanda surely must be legal. Simples.

Wot, no Danger Man?

Young Ones Blake 7 M*A*S*H If there was a pole for radio, then Hitch Hikers Guide To The Galaxy, was there from the beginning, Reel-To-Reel recorded off Radio 4, then use to sell the cassettes at college and via an ad in Sounds music paper. In the days before BBC Enterprises was setup, proper Arthur Daley inspired enterprise.

The movie I think you're referring to is, "The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert". An Australian Road Movie staring Hugo Weaving and Guy Pearce as Drag Queens and Terence Stamp as a transgender woman, on their bus called Priscilla. Terence was nominated for a BAFTA for Best Actor, but he, Tom Hanks ( Forrest Gump) and John Travolta (Pulp Fiction) were pipped by Hugh Grant in Four Weddings. Did win the Oscar for best costume design though.

Think you might mean Ewan McGregor?

Thanks for the idea, tomorrow evenings viewing.

Obviously a slow news story day, believe the beach front property in question of Condos and beach front villas was built in 2008 and publicly re-launched in 2010 under new management, hardly the " was not there two years ago " comment made in the OP.

Sounds similar to the UK system that was tested on 23rd April this year. Technology is based on the Cell Tower, not SMS or an APP, which allows for localized incidents as well as country wide . I hope someone in Thailand remembers to transmit the message in English as well, as with all the other Thai language messages I get, they go straight in the delete bin. The UK test was expected to target 90% of the UK mobiles, reality was closer to 50% due to technical issues, plus the fact only 88% of the UK at the time was 4/5G capable of reception (rural and dead-spots). Solution is based on a 4/5G signal and users running the latest Operating System on Apple or Android. If you use WiFi calling, then no message received. Another factor to consider is power for the cell towers, as from recent storms in the UK, localised power outage has effected mass communications. Maybe the old days of a CB-Radio and a 12V car battery could be the way forward (or backwards)!

Saves on washing up.

Apologies just re-read the highway code.

Bank of Mum & Dad bought me a flat for my 21st. Lived in it for 8 years. Does that count?

I take it under-taking isn't a crime in Thailand, unlike the UK and other Western countries?

The St. Louis one would give me a concern. Always been under the impression you need to prepare before hand, with special bowel clearing soup 24 in 48 hours beforehand so insides are all clean. Or does the Thai diet do this naturally?

My favorite quote as spoken by the great man to Daniel Craig in the role that secured him the 007 job. You're born, you take sh*t. You get out in the world, you take more sh*t. You climb a little higher, you take less sh*t. Till one day you're up in the rarefied atmosphere and you've forgotten what sh*t even looks like. Welcome to the "Layer Cake" son. Requiescat in pace.

Very nice!
