  1. Tims is the only place that I have been thrown out of and banned from after telling Tim she was tight bitch for not buying me a drink after buying her a good fewand downing evenmore myself.
  2. I was always amazed at how you can be miles from anywhere in the desert, nothing in sight but rock and dust and no camels or livestock but as soon as you open a window you get a fly in the truck.
  3. The Good: A masterclass in character/narrative voice(s), kickass murderous mercenaries, a unique magic-system based on what is essentially magic mushrooms and their effects, and a genre-bending/blending/breaking triumph of style. The Bad: Now, whilst this wasn’t a ‘bad read’ for me, the style and voice will be polarising. As a reader you will either hit the ground running, or hit the ground and land on your face only to ask through a mouthful of dirt ‘WTF was that?’ The Ugly Truth: Snakewood is a Tarantino-esque masterclass in voice and storytelling, reminiscent of the Malazan Book of the Fallen, Mark Lawrence, and Anna Smith Spark. Colorful as it is characterful, Selby combines the full artist’s palette of ‘black and white’ ‘good vs evil’ fantasy, the moral greys of grimdark, and the full rainbow of literary fiction, to weave a no-holds-barred https://fantasy-hive.co.uk/2018/11/snakewood-by-adrian-selby-book-review/

    I don't respect Hamilton as a man but as a driver superb.
  5. I am pretty sure that there is a topic about You Tube videos but I'm jiggered if I can find. Admin please feel free to move this if required. I can across this in my early morning wanders through You Tube. You start at Pattaya oriented stuff and end up watch how to debone a chicken. Anyway this woman's comments sounds so familiar. Good to know that you can around twice in you allotted 5 minute ST.
  6. Bruno has been reported as saying that he would rather fight Joshua every week rather than Tyson ever again.
  7. So what does the New Normal become?
  8. I detest tramp stamps and it appears it's only the Thai women who seem to love them. Monkey see monkey do? Look at Cambodian or Viet women and it's rare to see thankfully.
  9. A man in prison with a stutter died before he finished his sentence.
  10. I've read the whole Dr Siri Paiboon and Jimm Jurree series and wish there was more. Love it.
  11. And the borders are still open.
  12. President John Magufuli has opened the Tanzania borders saying that tourism was more important than the threat posed by Covid. "According to Magufuli, samples were secretly obtained by “testers”, including from a sheep, a goat and a pawpaw, given human names and sent to the country’s national referral laboratory to test for coronavirus which, according to Magufuli, came back positive." https://www.theguardian.com/global-development/2020/may/19/tanzanias-president-shrugs-off-covid-19-risk-after-sending-fruit-for-tests
  13. I was walking down the high street last week and a busker was playing Lola by the Kinks. Can't stop singing it in my head. A week or more of Lola FFS!!
  14. https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2020/05/how-many-people-die-each-day-covid-19-coronavirus/
  15. I thought this was an interesting article and worth sharing. https://spectator.us/salem-thanksgiving-coronavirus-panic-safetyism/?fbclid=IwAR33zzgwNMYsOQs_ixNYCRT4tYIJk6ST6Oaca97xji3yO2aJR5gpOYoKOwM
  16. All of the All Black team tested positive for crow flu but will be allowed home if they self quarantine.
  17. I've just finished the Poke Rafferty series by Timothy Hallinan and have start on the Simeon Grist series. Good dialogues and quite funny in places.
  18. I can't understand why anyone would jump through all these hoops to come to Pattaya when there is little open and the whole place looks rundown and dirty now unless they had family waiting for them.
  19. Thanks for posting. Just finished downloading it.
