  1. Guess the security camera is there so that the footage can be used to judge the limbo dance competition?
  2. Smoke it b4 getting to the airport. No need for an airline ticket then.
  3. The 1st time I went to Phuket (Karon), about a year before the Russians moved in, it was brilliant. So many decent Thais, lots of smiles. Used to go to a small bar run by a Brit, really decent guy who looked after us well. Went back Karon about 3 years later and the Thais seemed to have forgotten how to smile. I went back to that bar, only to find that guy as miserable as sin too. He recognised me and, surprisingly, he cheered up a bit and we got chatting. I asked the obvious and he told me that he'd been asked about selling up. At gun and knife point by some 'friendly' Russians. This was his last week in Thailand. All I could do is make damn sure I helped him get through his remaining stock. Sad.
  4. Wow. What chance did the girl have with family like that.
  5. His general music style isn't my thing, but I did listen to a lot of his stuff as it was better than the rest, and I really respected his musical ability and lyric writing. And I liked his collaboration with Sheena Easton. It's all personal taste though. I'm off to see a band called Bloodywood in Japan in May, might be slightly different to Prince...
  6. A great example of high-quality social media. Not.
  7. I'd add stomping on DEI to your list. I'm not sure I always agree with how he's going about doing stuff, and I'm not sold on the benefit of all the tariffs, but generally he's doing okay.
  8. Profit over lives. If proven in court, all involved and their families, who enjoyed the fruit of that profit, need to be stripped of all their assets and cash, never mind those charged being put into prison for a very long time.
  9. Having worked in aviation for over 35 years I cannot get my head round this abject failure of basic aviation safety. The FAA is clearly a failing organisation. It clearly cannot have a culture of safety that any reasonable person can have faith in.
  10. I'm a referee. I see several red card incidents in this video. The game should have been abandoned. But, what pressure is the referee under to NOT handle this as it obviously should be? Would the Association handling this league support him? Fine/ban the players? The team managers banned too? The clubs dismissed from the league including all players, and management? I know where I live the Association is gawd awful. They rarely back the officials. Even where a crime (common assault) has happened on the pitch, with video evidence, a player didn't get banned. I got several more examples of this.
  11. No mention of gofundme so she might be insured. 😕
  12. Meanwhile, is there enough money for essential medicines and equipment in the NHS? Crazy, crazy, crazy.
  13. Oh, I know! Get Mush to use his tesla trucks as tanks. Surely there must be enough plugs in the battlefield to keep them charged?
  14. Lose 50% of the management and that'll save enough to enable keeping the licence fee where it is, or reduce for poorer people. Get rid of the DEI 💩 and that'll save a bunch more.
  15. A hypocritical politician? Never heard of such a thing!
  16. Hope she recovers quickly and treats her rescuers to lunch.
  17. I can't get my brain round what anyone gets from watching someone doing a 💩.
  18. I've been told that the Philippines has seen an uptick in drug-related crime since Duterte quit, and that his successor might be profiting from this. Also, Sara Duterte has fallen out with Marcos so this might be as much about politics than anything tangible. Someone being arrested for a crime, but actually it's political motivated. Can't believe it! Would never happen anywhere else?
