Had a bust up with board admin over something trivial, another Mountain out of a Mole Hill moment fro ND hehe. He is now having a hissy fit saying “I won’t come back until they apologise” like how can they apologise if they think you are not here

I don’t think any of those Japanese were Prison Guards in Burma or the Death Railway, completely different bunch nowadays At Football World Cups they stay after the match and collect all rubbish in stadium Clean Uo

Cosmos that’s the place we hung out, I knew it would come back after my third coffee

At least it ain’t based on a real event

Sad News about The Numbers, had some fun afternoons out with him and Suadum in Patpong many years ago

Hollywoods obsession is with rewriting history on movies loosely based around warr U-571 No the Americans did not intercept the Enigma Machine scepter in Hollywood, it was the Brits but whitewashed out of history Saving Private Ryan Only America landed on D Day no mention of the Brits, Canuck’s or Aussies, The Mulberry Harbours and DD Tanks used in the D Day landings were both British inventions except in Hollywood when they were yank. The Last Samurai, as if the Japanese Imperial Guard would be saved by a random American Battle of the Bulge, Red Tails, Braveheart, The Patriot, Pearl Harbour and so on and so on, the list is endless. And to make matters worse, many Americans believe the Hollywood remake of History as fact.

5555 That line tickled me.

98 when the GBP was 91.7 THB those were the days, don’t get half of that now.

Is the Main Character David Brent?

OK the Bomb on Hiroshima killed approx 140,000 in one pop, but what about France 350,000 Civilian Victims India. 2,000,000 Civilian Victims Korea. 400,000 Civilian Victims China. 16,000,000 Civilian Victims etc In the overall scheme of things Japan got off pretty lightly compared to civilian deaths inflicted by the axis nations, you don’t hear the French crying over all the WWII movies set in France Data

Interesting take by the residents of Hiroshima saying the film didn’t go far enough and show the consequences of the A Bomb. I will never understand the Japanese

Instead of spending a fortune on furniture the homeless can’t sleep on, why not spend the money on the homeless problem instead. Australia, the same as the UK, has a shortage of social and affordable housing is chronic underinvestment by governments of all levels and political persuasion over decades. Social and affordable housing is also not a very good "vote winner" Well how about caring less about winning votes and caring more the the people you are elected to serve

Fuck me, a result after Nine years, and I thought my two year battle with my ex was long winded Top Result well done👍

It collapsed like a deck of cards

There are 42 nudist beaches in the UK, why anyone would want to get their kit off on a UK summers day is beyond me

And talking of Musicals did you know that Phil Collins was the original Artful Dodger is the West End production of Oliver, not just rehearsed for the part but actually starred in the role. The reason this fact remains largely unknown is due to him being famous for more than just one song

Well enough to know he was no more than a one hit wonder in my walk of life

Such as? I’ll be damned if I can remember anything else he has done in music, or life in general for that matter.

There is the other side of the story coming out such as hy does the video only playing from a few moments in, what happened before. Allegedly, this is hearsay so don’t quote me on this, the cop pulled them over and demanded a cash fine (does happen A LOT) Brothers refuse, Cop pulls the gun on the Brothers waving it about screaming at them, one of Brothers uses his MMA experience to disarm the cop, they empty the gun and chamber of bullets and offer the gun back to cop. They are still dickheads mind, but I’ll be interesting to see if/when full video is released.
