  1. Absolutely mind boggling. Catching a Killer: The Murder of Emma Caldwell The murder of a young woman. A botched police inquiry. And the BBC Disclosure investigation that helped catch the killer. As the man who murdered Emma Caldwell is finally brought to justice, reporter Samantha Poling reveals a catalogue of missed opportunities by police to catch him. The inside story on how this left Emma's murder unsolved for nearly two decades, while a dangerous predator was free to continue raping and assaulting other women.
  2. Thought this was excellent. The Push: Murder on the Cliff Scotland's top legal team tackle the death of Leeds-based lawyer Fawziyah Javed, who fell from the top of Arthur's Seat in Edinburgh, dying alone with no witnesses far from home. Hours later, Kashif Anwar, her husband of nine months was arrested for murder. Exclusive access to the murder trial at Edinburgh's High Court finds the jury being shown CCTV of the couple walking arm-in-arm, and a smiling selfie taken minutes before Fawziyah falls. What dark secrets could lie behind their outward happiness? Testimony of the person to find Fawziyah after she fell from Arthur's Seat. The jury discovers that at this point Fawziyah was still alive and gave a dying declaration of what had just happened. But it's still a case without forensics - and two totally different versions of what occurred.
  3. Depends what you really want it for. I just wanted mine to improve dialogue, which it does. If you want it for sound effects, you're right, a 6000 Baht sound bar won't "blow your socks off". You can pick up a Samsung soundbar like this for 2560 Baht which will definitely improve the sound and enable you to use one remote.

  4. A budget is always helpful when asking for advice otherwise you will get recommendations from 500 to 50 000 Baht. Here's a recent thread on speakers. FWIW, I have a Samsung TV and got a 6000 Baht Samsung soundbar, which has really improved the sound.
  5. Can't wait for this one. Starts next week.
  6. This could be awesome when you see who's involved. https://www.gamesradar.com/ray-donovan-spin-off-the-donovans-guy-ritchie/#:~:text=Ray Donovan-,Guy Ritchie is making a spin-off show from one,America's best crime drama series&text=Ray Donovan%2C the US crime,creative dream team behind it.
  7. The British Airways Killer Two parts out now.
  8. https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2024/feb/14/centrelink-call-centre-performance-aged-pension-claims-services-australia-new-staff
  9. Luckily you can apply 13 weeks early. Five months is still unacceptable though.
  10. Image it wouldn't differentiate. My mate waited 6 months last year to get his approved and it was a basic application. I haven't read the article but hard to see how anyone can defend that long a waiting period.
  11. Nope Read it again. It's $5.00 for 365 days and you top as require. It's as cheap as chips for SMS's.
  12. I had the same problems. If you can, get yourself an AldiMobile pay as you go sim for $5.00 and just top it up when required. With your phone taking two sim cards, it makes it even easier. https://www.aldimobile.com.au/collections/payg
  13. Det som göms i snö AKA The Truth Will Out Bit of a slow burner but I really enjoyed it. Two series out on TPB with hard-coded subs. Detective Peter Wendel returns after a long sick leave to form a team to reopen cold cases; the team find clues that an innocent man has been convicted of murder. Sorry, couldn't find a trailer with English subs.
  14. I reckon Thomas will have to play at least a year in a state league before any club even thinks about picking him up FJ. The PR over it would be a nightmare.
  15. Yep A bit like the residency rules for the ATO. Everyone's circumstances are different. I couldn't imagine people who have hardly gone back to Australia, if at all getting portability straight away.
  16. I can't see that happening TBH. Pretty sure once you have portability, that's it.
  17. My take is when they say "former residents" they're referring to people living overseas who are coming back to claim the pension. Not people living overseas who have portability.
  18. Yep The 2 year period is a one once off. I know two people here who have portability and have been told by Centrelink it's forever. Here's some more info. https://www.mlc.com.au/content/dam/mlcsecure/adviser/technical/pdf/age-pension-qualification-and-portability.pdf
  19. We've all got different circumstances. Some single, some married, some married with kids. Different budgets etc. Scorecard had access to the RSL and cheap rent that most won't before he returned to Thailand. Still kicking has gotten himself cheap rent but looks as if he's staying in Oz. My biggest gripe is that you have to do it (return to Oz) if you want the pension. But it is what it is I guess.
  20. Don't forget, still kicking isn't single, he's married. Also, why would you live there if you didn't have to? His wife owns 2 properties. Something doesn't add up.
  21. This was tragic. Ukrainian filmmaker and Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Mstyslav Chernov offers a window into the practices of conflict zone reporters and an unflinching, anguishing account of the 20 days he and colleagues spent covering Mariupol.
  22. What a pity. https://wwos.nine.com.au/afl/news-2024-angus-brayshaw-retires-melbourne-demons-concussion-impacts-exclusive/623ea7f0-4cf1-4b96-b5f5-751945d06b2c
  23. You've previously said you're on the single OAP rate of about $1200 including benefits PF. But you say you're married so why aren't you on the married rate? If your wife has 2 properties, have they been included in the assets test?
  24. So are you renting from a friend or family member? I find it difficult to believe you are paying $240 per week and the owner hasn't put the rent up in 7 years.
  25. Is that State Hosing Commission? My good mate who has just moved to Thailand was paying $450 per week for an average 3x1 in an average suburb. And that was renting through a friend.
