The Kominsky Method - Netflix

Who knew Michael Douglas could do comedy? Very few do New York Jewish comedy like Alan Arkin, so even if you don’t know who he is, you’ll alternate between crying with laughter and wanting to reach into the screen and strangling the guy. Reminiscent of the Odd Couple (tikay may remember Jack Klugman and Tony Randall).

Just one season of 8 short episodes that have you aching for the next. I’ve just watched the funniest, most entertaining funeral service scene ever, and it’s only episode 2.

Can’t recommend this enough.

Agreed.  I was surprised how much I enjoyed it.

Das Boot - a gripping WW2 thriller featuring the French resistance and German U boats.  Very well done indeed.

hark at him with his caddy.

caddy's mandatory in thailand!

Was a few franky eye rolls when they tell him its 140 yards and he hits it plum and goes 30 yards past, overall though they are pretty high morale characters. Quite a lot of subtle, hilarious, unintentional needles too, I really enjoy "bye - bye" as you've blazed the tee-shot into the woods. One referred to me as "Mr. Nam" (Mr. Water) for a little bit after a few holes blasting balls into the water Cheesy

Best thing about the caddys in thailand though is they are absolute ninjas at finding lost balls, fire it off into oblivion thinking thats the last we'll be seeing of that ball and they scurry off with a couple of clubs and come back a few minutes later with it, they cost about £20 a round with a decent tip etc so when you finding the drink as often as some of us you can come out net plus off the caddy hire! 1 hole I went into the water 3 times and ended up 1 ball up on the hole!!

Yes, golf in Thailand delivers a great experience with the caddies, carts, etc.  I just came back from a trip to Hua Hin and played Black Mountain and Banyan.  Put these 2 courses on your "must play" list for the future.

Bohemian Rhapsody.

Queen fans should enjoy it.  Rami Malek does a pretty good job as Freddie Mercury.

Just concentrate on your stance and your swing and your grip and keeping your head still Dave.

and make sure you do not grip the club too tight and make sure you do not have too much tension in your shoulders and arms and......

The list can go on and on and on and........

Best advice is to maintain a sense of humour on the course, avoid slow play and have fun!!!!!

Gill taking off in an A380.

Is that a simulator Tikay or a mock up? My Joo was 50 in Dec (ffs don't mention it to anyone) and I got her a 2 hour simulator experience.

Am I the only one who laughed when reading "I got her a 2 hour simulator experience"?

I am sure she will be very grateful!

Mourinho is a master of negotiating a pay out clause in his contract then cleverly engineering the club to sack him.

It has happened too many times to be a coincidence.



Oh come on. You can see from his reaction, as he left Manchester yesterday after being dismissed, how desperately sad he was.

Mark Hughes and Alan Pardew must be masters of this game.

It has happened too many times to be a coincidence.

These other managers got the sack for poor results.  Mourinho's actions, behaviour, interviews, etc. sent a clear message to the club to sack him.

Although I do find it difficult to understand why managers who have been sacked for failure are given the chance again and again and again.

Only 3 episodes in just yet, but I'm enjoying the new Narcos - Mexico series so far.  No sign of any drop-off in quality from the switch in storyline from Colombia to Mexico and it's a storyline I'm far less familiar with, compared to that of Escobar.

So far, so good.

I am 2 episodes into it and am looking forward to the remaining episodes.

Spain/Gibraltar apart, the EU 27 countries are proving harder line than Barnier..

Theresa May's frantic bid to save Brexit deal as Merkel threatens to ditch summit

https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/politics/theresa-mays-frantic-bid-save-13625220

It is a challenge to get those 27 countries to agree to anything!!!

Not much is being said on the chances of the 27 EU countries agreeing on this draft agreement which I think is pretty small.

Having to follow rules over which you have no say is a massive statement for a democratic country to swallow. Particularly a country with extensive history of fighting for democracy. Give that up to avoid marginal economic decline? Can see why resistance is there to such a suggestion.

Hi Mantis

Has it ever occurred to you that your views do not represent the country as a whole?

48% voted Remain so it’s a statistical fact my views don’t represent the country as a whole

Tell me mate...do your views represent the country has a whole?

That said does it occur to you that those bullet points are not acceptable to the majority?

I don't think my general views would represent even 10% of the country, that's why generally I keep them to myself.
You will probably notice that I very rarely make any comments about what they country thinks, should think or finds hard to swallow.

I would guess, and I will admit it is only a guess, that the majority of the country couldn't give a monkeys about those bullet points.


Agreed mate, the people who don't care about uncontrolled immigration, self-determination or whether British decisions are spineless is a very small minority.

Even so, would encourage you to post such thoughts frequently on a failing forum. I'm sure the wizards will confirm it's a real positive for the stats.   

I think the majority would agree that your attempt to twist my statements is pretty poor.

I would however believe that the amount of people who do care about uncontrolled immigration greatly out weighs the number of people who care about self determination and supposed spineless decisions.

I find your point of view on this somewhat delusional.

I voted leave.

I would still like to leave.

At this point though all of that is irrelevant.

Whether Brexit was a good idea, bad idea, opportunity or disaster it doesn't matter.

The leaders of this country, in my belief, are not up to the job of delivering anything other than either the worst deal anyone ever imagined or an implosion of epic proportions.
They are too busy fighting amongst themselves and completely out of touch with reality.


Your idea that it is spineless to realise this is and do something about it is insane.

I agree with the text highlighted in bold.
