  1. 98 when the GBP was 91.7 THB those were the days, don’t get half of that now.
  2. 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
  3. 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
  4. 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
  5. Fuck me, a result after Nine years, and I thought my two year battle with my ex was long winded Top Result well done👍
  6. It collapsed like a deck of cards

    Straya

    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
  8. 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
  9. Well enough to know he was no more than a one hit wonder in my walk of life
  10. Such as? I’ll be damned if I can remember anything else he has done in music, or life in general for that matter.
  11. 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.
  12. Isn’t that true, look at the outrage on Phuket just last week, the Swiss owner of an Elephant sanctuary kicked a woman sat on the steps of his property at the beach. Candle lit vigils, singing of the anthem, placard Wielding protesters and his visa was revoked so he and his Thai wife have to leave Thailand
  13. Mekong

    Britain

    As well as the USA the UK will have elections this year, the Party Broadcasts have already started
  14. Quote from the guys Father “Who would have ever expected this? Just a couple of kids on a tourist trip.” Kids? They are 36 and 34, maybe you as their father treating them as kids cause them to act like kids.
  15. HHGTTG As good as it was ‘Nobody makes jokes in base 13 anymore “was an even better quote IMHO
  16. Putin invades Ukraine, Ukrainians kill Russians, Ukraine Good Russia Bad Italians Invade Bear Territory, Bears kill Italians, Bears Bad Italians Good And the difference is, Humans are supposed to be the most intelligent members of the animal kingdom
  17. My comments weren’t aime d at this story specifically, just my own thoughts on so called co existence on human terms So man’s idea of coexistence is to take over land on which the Elephants used to roam for farming and ban the Elephants to ,reserves designated by man. Man deciding where animals which were here millions of years before man existed where they can and cannot live is arrogance in my book. Didn’t Australians used to do the same with Aborigines in he past with reserves and stations?
