The wonders of social media...we went from Rumak's stirring "Give me liberty or give me death!" to 'Coronation Street' in only a couple of posts.

 

I refrain from commenting on Jason and Kylie and hope that Old Badger emerges from his burrow soon...

That's funny, I thought about throwing a reference in to those two in for good measure.

The link between the two soaps? Bishop - we've had Harold Bishop and Emily Bishop.

Last time I watched Coronation Strasse ( my father called it that????), Ena Sharpies wuz in it. 

 

Is she still alive? ????

 

Anyway, back on topic...????

 

Having my morning cuppa PG.

 

Temperature is 25°C, feels cool outside, a bit of fon rin last evening, but nowt like the storms of the last few days.

Not much to say really; life goes on. Contented, happy.

 

Pint of Guinness wouldn't go amiss, though.

 

 

 

 

 

Yup, Ena Sharples was in the Rovers only last week,

It's 26°C here - that's from weather.com, I've not even looked outside yet, curtains still drawn (had a pencil handy).

P,S, Waiting for a visit from the fake news gestapo.

About 6 years back I was visiting Songkhla for work and I stayed at the big rundown hotel next to the mermaid statue on the beach. I checked the tv channels and coronation street was on (I think it was on an Ozzie channel). I hadn't seen coronation street in decades - had to tear myself away from it to get down to the Irish bar. Is Ken Barlow still in it?

He's still in it. Longest running actor in any soap in the world I think.

.......as in “Banned Again. Say it slowly it kinda works. Even more so as he comes from Dagenham. 

I just had a flashback of DB crying uncontrollably. I don’t think I will sleep tonight now. 
 

Ha ha ha! That was excellent.

My Octopus Teacher

It's a documentary.

I was really hoping it was a comedy with a title like that. Oh well, never mind:

What was her crime?

"fans were outraged when Deidre was wrongly jailed for mortgage fraud and theft"

Even Prime Minister Tony Blair decided to weigh in and ordered the Home Secretary to look into the case.

"It is clear to anyone with eyes in their head she is innocent and she should be freed," he said.

This was all despite the situation being completely fictional.

Free The Ban Dung One.

It should be “Free the Ban Dagen One. 

And some fell on stony ground. You'll have to explain that one I'm afraid.

I based Free The Ban Dung One on Coronation Street years ago. There was a campaign to 'Free The Weatherfield One' when when Deirdre Barlow was imprisoned.

Is it too difficult for the Mor Prom app on Line to forward all the data for those who registered in Phuket to the Phuket website?

that will be a first.

If it allowed much, much less movement than at present, maybe it would prevent them sitting on their backsides so often.

The documentary/movie "Super size Me" has interesting content. ????

Yeah, I watched that last year. It was made in 2004. There's also a follow-up to it:

Super Size Me 2: Holy Chicken!  (2017)

Both available in the 'usual places'.

So why not just mail it in ? Thats always an option, unless of course the Post Office is the same 3hrs trip.

Some offices allegedly don't accepted 90 day by post.

(Well, they'll sign for the EMS document but do nothing with it)

Staffers Kanokporn, 24, and Jariya, 25, thought the man was genuine and was not a career criminal but an opportunist. He appeared agitated and nervous.

He appears to have got a good haul. Probably nervous where he was going to spend his ill-gotten gains.

what benefit do you get from doing 90 day reports?

Getting to write pages of posts on TVF.

had to input phone number so OTP code could be received.

I don't get past the first page either.

Looking at my screen-grab, I'm asked:

Name without title, Surname, Id number, Number on back of card, date of birth.

Then press "Continue"

You can!

Just do it fifteen days early every time, making it a 75 day report.

I wish they would do it every 90 minutes.

They could rename reporting "The minute waltz" 

Btw,  I'm hoping to work for TAT.
