Queen of The South is very good, nothing like a gripping tale of cartel murder and betrayal

I Care A Lot [2021]

A crooked legal guardian who drains the savings of her elderly wards meets her match when a woman she tries to swindle turns out to be more than she first appears in a highly entertaining black comedy of people doing nasty things to each other with a mesmerizing lead performance.

Don't watch everything I download, but this was really good. Strangely it gets a load of one star review on IMDB, something to do with the women's roles, or is it wimen these days, nice twist at the end

Luxor [2020]

When a British aid worker returns to the ancient city of Luxor, she meets a former lover. An impressive low key drama to be admired for its depth of emotions with few words spoken amongst stunning Egyptian scenery.

Not much of a plot and stiff as a board acting, but worth it for the shots inside the winter palace hotel and the scenery. Might have been better to have forgotten about the non story and just shown the locations

Kyoto's finest, one of the worlds best school bands for sure

Cav, as usual I agree with you. This ubiquitous transgender shit makes me sick really.  I Germany they are now planning to let people decide about their sex at a certain age. Maybe I go there and declare myself a diesel operated female squirrel and insist on my human rights.  The next thing on my hatelist ( Donald already deleted) is the goddamed Cancel Culture.

All countries need a Mr Gormsby to sort out the nancy boys and dress wearers New Zealand's funniest ever show

keep your eye on the girl, forgotten about this group until it pooped up on YT

Strewth some of you sound half dead already 😨

Hi,

"I imagine Nana Plaza will end up going the same way in the not too distant future."

That's what people have been saying for the last 20 years or so.

Sanuk!
 

20 years ago there was Soi Zero, Sukhumvit Sq, Clinton Plaza, Asoke corner, Queens park, Washington Sq etc all history. Nana Plaza will go the same way one day, just a matter of time.

Just booked in to Hotel on suk soi 20 and can see down onto what was Washington Sq, sign of the times. I imagine Nana Plaza will end up going the same way in the not too distant future. Anyone know what they are building down there?

Stick was a great bloke always willing to give help and advice, the site had a good run anyway. I think anyone from NZ must be a bit loopy to want to give that country up for a permanent life in Thailand.

Must have gotten pretty boring covering bars and nightlife every week when not really interested in the subject. The photos were the quality side of the site. Like the terminator he'll be back.

Always good for a laugh

Fat life's matter 😊

wasn't the 2000 election more than a bit suspect as well?

The Dig [2021]

Based on a true story set just as Britain goes to war with the Germans in 1939, an excavator and his team discover a wooden ship from the Dark Ages while digging up a burial ground on a woman's estate. This is a very English style drama that starts well and is more memorable for the two strong leads rather than any archaeological digs but gets somewhat lost in a disappointingly schmaltzy Hollywood mainstream style production with an unnecessary romantic subplot.

Enjoyed that thanks, recall going to see the exhibit in '69 at the British Museum. Did not think the inserted romance was too bad, at least no bames littering the cast for once!

Why do people who have given up drinking always go on about how long it is since they had one?

Obama played more golf, how much was his bill?

ONLY in countries with rigged elections does the person with the most votes loses. If someone can name me any other country where that doesn't happen I'm all ears. 

Not necessarily, in the UK you can win an election with fewer votes than the opposition, or get a large percentage of the votes but get very few members of parliament

Stickman includes it in a list of 'Bars" which have closed over the years, all of them are bars and a go go's but the Eden was neither, being a brothel posing as some sort of club.

'Eden Club was never the same when it changed hands and Marc was no longer involved'

Well that must have been an improvement then 😝

The idea that renewables can form all or most of our energy is a fantasy, and they do considerable environmental damage as well as using up coal and minerals which need mining and smelting. Nuclear power is the safest, cheapest source of energy with little environmental impact, yes we all know about Chernobyl but that was old technology done on the cheap.

Of course Twitter banned her account, they still have countless amounts of porn including child porn on their site of course, but politicians they don't agree with break the rules!
