  1. Just watched the Manu Utd game. Pissing down, windy and cold... Time to paint a ceiling.
  2. Nice interview and pleasant lady. I will make it a priority to visit next time.. Thanks for posting.
  3. Maybe vaccine requirements will help. But insurance will be mandatory and I am not sure how newly arrived ex pats will be received.
  4. Don't really know this guy, or much about Addicts. If the forum continues without some of the xenophobic characters around on some other forums, all is good.
  5. No country will leave itself vulnerable to import a potential risk to its well being and economy. Just another layer of stress before travelling particularly the 72 hour window for testing negative.
  6. Truth is probably somewhere between. Pockets are busy, but a friend who lives there says fairly quiet over all.
  7. I am sure this happens in the UK too. If many who think this way were to look in a couple of hospitals, may well change their thinking.
  8. Problem, a bank manager for many gives a false sense of security. Gives some an idea he has some sort of inside knowledge. Feel sorry for those who lost money, as its often those who need cash think they have spotted a golden goose only to be devastated after.
  9. Come across this on one of my cycling groups. Some older riders have stronger constitutions. I often get left for dead on some of the hills.
  10. I always come back with stuff bought on impulse. Middle isle addiction.
  11. Agree but it seems only a short while ago Lampard was getting merit. But I guess sign of the times you have big money at your disposal to buy players, plus a big salary you have to perform 100%. Also, your only as good as your last five games.
  12. Remember back in the late sixties seeing many of these. Guys with Crombie coats and bovver boots..lol
  13. Investors seem to like Thailand as a safe haven.
  14. I am sure the tea money is viewed by some immigration officials, as part of their salary.
  15. Recently started to buy more frozen stuff and using the freezer more saving extra shopping trips. Apparently if left empty will consume more juice. Surprised at the choice available.
  16. I used to have tinnitus in my left ear, but one day it went. Not much is known about this condition apparently.
  17. Found moving bloody hard work. Difficult, but essential ( was for me ) to throw away stuff that was kept for mainly sentimental reasons.
  18. When I think how much I used to spend on amps and speakers 20 odd years ago, and now can potentially get a better sound out of a relatively inexpensive, given price comparison, sound bar.
  19. I still have an AV amp with 5.1 setup but often wondered about the comparison with sound bars.
  20. Enjoyed there a cool place to get refreshed out of the sun. Very sad. Just wondering if any of the places that have closed, will be resurrected in time when the world gets better.
  21. Not attending gigs, football matches, group bike rides and walks I miss. But keep busy with DIY stuff and keeping in touch online with friends in Thailand helps. I am a believer in how you deal with a shit situation, is sometimes more significant.
