  1. Angela Lansbury, star of Murder She Wrote, dies age 96. RIP. Angela Lansbury, Murder She Wrote And Beauty And The Beast Star, Dies Aged 96 | HuffPost UK Entertainment (huffingtonpost.co.uk)

  3. Good news. Always a great place to stay.
  4. I have a copy of A Maigret Christmas and Other Stories. Georges Simenon was a fascinating man, a Belgian, who once claimed to have had 10,000 lovers in the 61 years since his 13th birthday. His second wife claimed it was closer to 1,200, one of whom was Josephine Baker. Pity he never came to Thailand he could have easily doubled that figure!
  5. Used Etihad (via Abu Dhabi) a few times a few years ago. Timings and connections were always quite good, prices usually reasonable. Up to that point I had convinced myself that two flights of 6 hours with a chance to stretch my legs in between was the way to go. Once I took my first direct flight with Thai Airways I decided that was my preference.
  6. Also got to bear in mind whether you would encounter problems at check-in at the start of your trip. If your return trip is beyond the standard visa exempt period they may not let you fly notwithstanding you booked with them.
  7. That's a shocker, did not realise the walkthrough had been closed. What about the Mexican restaurant that was on the walkthrough and the Annies massage place? I sometimes stayed in the soi 2 hotel now known as the Doubletree Hilton and it would be a pain in the ass to have to walk up to Sukhumvit, turn right and then walk along to soi 4 for the Plaza.
  8. Are you sure it was a real nurse and not just some nutcase who likes to dress up as a nurse and inject people? Spikevax sounds like the sort of thing that you might get in your drink at a dodgy nightclub!
  9. About a week ago heavy storm damage partially destroyed the new terminal at DM. The building was only one year old. https://thainews.prd.go.th/en/news/detail/TCATG220419224311582
  10. Rest in peace Arno. Belgian rock icon Arno dies aged 72 https://f24.my/8ZbK.T via @FRANCE24
  11. Alan Furst books are brilliant if you like that genre of historical spy novels. The last one I remember reading was the Polish Officer.
  12. Lovely little dogs the Dachshunds. Unfortunately about 25% of them suffer from back issues at some point.
  13. Round 3 wins the 'Battle of the Rounds' for me.
  14. Good, cheap, old fashioned comfort food. I like to jazz mine up by putting butter and marmite on the toast then layer the beans onto the toast with melted cheese. Add Worcestershire sauce, HP sauce (a tamarind based brown sauce) and season with lots of black pepper.
  15. Billy Boy Scene from A Clockwork Orange. Edit coz link did not work!
