I always remember it by LWT (Left, White, Top), meaning the thicker white stripe is top left. Edited August 20, 2020 by Britboy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am out on the Atlantic atm so you see less and less birds. The boat is a 22 foot pontoon. I am selling it in a year and a half when I retire and move to SEA (hopefully if this current shit storm subsides a bit). You want to buy it? I"ll give ya a good deal on it my friend. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it could have been a hostage situation and someone spotting the distress signal may have been their only chance of survival. OK I will get me coat.

More likely to be someone who wants to appear patriotic (no issues with that) but is unaware of the flags meaning! Either that, or the distress was too much beer when they flew it... or they'd run out... 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coxyhog Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 (edited) Not now but last night we went to a Thai restaurant to take advantage of the 50% discount.The place had excellent reviews. Four of us so we had chicken,lamb,beef & prawn dishes.The beef should've been sent to a cobblers & the "Tiger king prawns" should've been labelled "Tiger pigmy prawns". We only ate out because the missus wanted the 50%....she cooks far better food than any Thai restaurant I've ever been in.This is why we don't eat out very often.

Jambo Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 (edited) Watching the rain ...................................again. Currently "Up Country" where the rainy season really is the "rainy season" and we sure have bought a ticket. It hardly ever seems to fucking stop and all four of our dogs have got the miseries because they will not venture out in the rain. There was about a 15 minute window this morning so I was out on the wee Honda and brought the dogs back a load of BBQ which they woofed down and then promptly went back to being miserable. I spoil them something wrotten but I know how they feel. 😀 Edited August 22, 2020 by Jambo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thai Spice Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 Perfect weather at 06.30 am for breakfast on the terrass, but a bit cool for the swimming pool. But I braved the harsh conditions ! Now having a Bintang in a nice café while the Miss is at the supermarket. Next, off to the beach for lunch. Pensioners life ! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
