Angelina Jolie’s father ‘knockout blow’ to the UK industry: Trump's tariffs
Does anyone even watch modern movies these days? I can't remember the last good one. I don't go the the cinema to be lectured to about women's empowerment or some other Woke rubbish. Even Netflix is now trotting out politically motivated garbage like Adolesence and "Harry and Meghan". The Western movie industry is dying, particularly Hollywood. -

Australian Man Detained for Carrying Grenade Rounds at Phuket Airport
In a significant security breach, Phuket International Airport officials have detained an Australian national, Mr Peter Davison, for carrying grenade rounds in his luggage. The incident unfolded on 6th May when airport staff conducted routine checks at the domestic terminal, prompting a thorough investigation by local police and explosive experts. Peter Davison, a 61-year-old Australian, raised suspicions when his black fabric bag underwent a luggage inspection by Ms Pakkanut Dumlak, a diligent baggage screening officer. Her alertness to the contents in Davison's luggage led to an immediate call for more comprehensive scrutiny. Inside, potentially dangerous items were discovered, including an 81mm grenade round, a 60mm grenade round, an unidentified type of mine, and two semicircular explosive components. Acting swiftly, Ms Dumlak alerted the local police at Sakoo Station and the airport's Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) team. The EOD were promptly dispatched to handle and secure the items, highlighting the importance of strict security protocols in dealing with such potential threats. Upon further investigation, law enforcement officials corroborated that Davison did not possess the necessary authorisation to carry such items. Under Thai law, possession of unregistered munitions is a grave offence, typically reserved for armed forces or individuals with explicit governmental permission, neither of which applied to Davison. Police Lieutenant Colonel Korapoom Potpongpaiboon from Sakoo Police Station took the lead in the investigation, ensuring the case followed appropriate legal channels. Davison was formally charged with the illegal possession of munitions that cannot be registered or licensed, a charge that carries severe penalties in Thailand, reflecting the country's stringent stance on illegal arms and explosives possession. As the legal proceedings unfold, this incident serves as a stern reminder of the crucial role airport security plays in maintaining public safety and preventing potential threats. Moreover, it underscores the diligence required by airport staff to identify and neutralise risks, ensuring safer travel experiences for all passengers. Davison remains in custody as authorities continue their investigation. The case calls attention to the necessity for stringent security measures at airports worldwide and highlights the collaborative efforts needed between airport authorities and law enforcement to maintain travel safety.

Why are you still in Thailand, not in Vietnam?
Neither do I. Obviously your wife knows quality cuisine. 🤫 Pho is yesterday's trendy dish. I do not eat rat, cat or dog and find the Vietnamese wet markets disgusting. There is a good reason why avian flu and pork diseases a have an epicenter in Vietnam, Details old boy, details. Most of those expats are Asians. A small portion are "westerners". Vietnam has many factories and foreign students. In respect to foreign workers, as Myanmar is to Thailand, Laos is to Vietnam. The APEC agreement makes it very easy for APEC members to stay in Vietnam. The treatment of cannabis is a plus for many people who have grown weary of the stinky potheads who stink up places. I don't know why that merited thumbs down from some. I too have never been treated harshly as a foreigner. Please accept my thumb up to counter those who are envious of your status. -
