  1. In honour of the late, great George Martin. Thanks for the music. RIP

  3. I've started reading Coming Up For Air by George Orwell. It's the only novel he wrote that I haven't read. I'm only a few chapters in but I'm enjoying it.
  4. I love this. Someone I knew chose to have this played at their funeral too.
  5. You quote my answer to your question and then ask me same the question again? I give up! Whether I referenced that thread or not, it wasn't for any reason that involved tko as we had an argument about something unrelated to the subject of that thread and it also didn't concern Simply Sam, there was no need for him to get involved, which he did because I'd wound him up about it although he's trying to do his best to say that I am the one that's been upset. MM, I'm not going to waste any more time on this, if you reply then you won't get an answer from me, this is beyond childish.
  6. Oh my god. This is absolutely priceless. You're resurrecting finished arguments from the past in threads that people have stopped posting in that also have absolutely nothing to do with you and you're the one that's telling me that my feelings have been hurt? It's plain to see that somewhere along the line I've struck a nerve with you, hence your need to behave in that way. I couldn't care less what he has to say about British people and whether they are insular or not, let's face it, he didn't do a very good job of proving that that statement has any credence to it, all he did was identify th
  7. Not my imagination at all, there were several posts from people in that thread that made it seem that monthly incomes of six figures were normal, including tko himself. My opinion is different to tko's about that and about Americans and passport ownership but that debate has now finished, hence the reason why I stopped responding because I saw no point in continuing it although it seems your're determined to continue it over here even though it doesn't involve you. What motivates you to do that exactly?
  8. I finally finished the epic Don Quixote. It took me a long time to read because I didn't enjoy it and I struggled to get into it, particularly with the last two hundred pages because I'd completely lost interest by then. It has to be the most superfluous novel I have ever read, there are so many chapters where nothing of any interest happens at all and it's so boring and tedious to read. My copy is 760 pages but I think it could have been written in half as many pages. There are some interesting stories in the novel but they are few and far between and not enough to make this book enjoyable. I
  9. Totally agree with you and this was why I made the comments I did in the "retiring or staying long tern in Pattaya" thread in the Members' Bar part of the forum. You can be anyone you want on the Internet, and as with most people I have met in Pattaya (and the reason I am often reluctant to meet new people there) they are usually full of shit and try to make out they are something that they aren't. If you were to believe the consensus of that thread then the majority of people that have retired to Pattaya are living off of six figure incomes each month in a lap of luxury but most will know tha
  10. Read the posts I made in the recent thread about retiring or staying long term in Pattaya. Maybe then you'll detect the sarcasm in my post.
  11. I thought all the retired people that live in Pattaya are on six figure incomes each month?
  12. The brilliant: Mystic River for which Penn fully deserved his Best Actor Oscar, his acting in this was absolutely amazing.
  13. That film looks good. It also stars: Kevin Bacon
  14. How important cold that Mata goal last night turn out to be? Three points desperately needed to level with City in fourth place although they have a game in hand. Ten games to go, gate crashing the top four is now a possibility again. Wins against West Brom and City this month and it's highly likely.........come on United!
  15. And I agree with you too. The people pulling the strings at the big clubs want success to come quickly and there is no patience. It will be sad to see the youngsters overlooked for other signings but if they bring success I can't argue with that although I would rather there was a nucleus of home grown English players at United. If they move on and become great players elsewhere than that would be hard to accept even if we are successful. It could come back to haunt us.
  16. As I did with the Liverpool game last month, I actually think United are going to win today. It's been that sort of season - when you're least expecting them to get a result they get one. I've also decided to ease up on my criticism of Van Gaal. To be fair to him, even if the football isn't always attractive we are still in with a chance of winning two competitions and could still gate crash the top four if we win well today. If they beat the dippers in the next round of the Europa League then that will do wonders for the fans and their feelings towards Van Gaal and considering he has a 100% r
