  1. I met the original milky bar kid,the original,I told this story before,I was introduced to him in Ashford Middlesex years ago,he was working as a white van man around Heathrow,I kept saying to him “Go on mate,say the milky bars are on me” he sighed and said “Mate,I am in my f***ing 40’s I don’t do that anymore” lol
  2. You remember a guy called Lord Miles?Early 20’s kid who went to Afghan and was kidnapped by the taliban?Just back in uk and has a meeting tomorrow with investors in London as he has negotiated a $200 million gold mining concession in Afghan through the taliban “Government”,it’s going to set him up for life,he is autistic,he credits his autism with his success in life.
  3. Yup,the cash is really good,but in truth if you haven’t expensive (note that word) medical insurance and something happens your effectively f****d,the lifestyle is fantastic,my kids down there,for a young couple with an education the world is at your feet in such a country,you can really make something.
  4. Life was a superb film,Calvin,left an opening at the end for a sequel.
  5. Yeah Charts,holiday or vacation time stateside for the average 9-5’er isn’t good,can’t remember off the top of my head but it’s less than UK counterparts,but they are still living the dream.

  7. I will watch Night Manager when I get a Firestick here mate,Amazon normally sell them really cheap on Black Friday which is coming up,I rate fassbender,just something about his calmness in some roles.

    There’s a dark side to your character Dido,it shows through the cracks just now and again,quite worrying.
  9. Mini-series covering the Bhopal story 7/10.
  10. Holiday entitlement isn’t good at all,but it’s an experience,and it’s no London,London is comfortable,it’s easy to navigate,it’s home,New York is a lot more of a mad house at times.
  11. Watches have dropped a little recently,if you want to move or condense paper down from a pile to a little bit of plastic there’s always people who offer that service,lot easier than a watch your going to have to sell at the other end then once again you have the paper to deal with.
  12. I was in Orange County place called Corona del mar (real housewives of orange county is filmed there) huge amount of cash there,used to go into LA daily to work,then just moved to west gate right next to a project I was involved with,Latino area,a lot more ghetto,there’s brits in LA doing ok mate,still lots of cash around. never went to Boston,nothing there appeals to me,I think there has to be a draw takes you to an area,California has everything,it’s like being in a movie at times lol,as the sign says “Live the Dream”

    Fentanyl

    We went for work last time,but middle aged blokes with wives slavering over high mileage Eastern European ladies in the windows is a bit cringe to be honest.

    I actually thought I saw a dead guy on San Pedro street,he was lying face down in the gutter,lots of zombies just standing around,if your ever in LA walk through skid row,it’s an experience.

    Fentanyl

    Or as they say in west London a ticket and brasses.What is that all about,every time I go to Amsterdam with mates,and these are married blokes they are drawn to the red light district like a moth to a flame.

    Israel

    I know.Oddly enough I met a quebecois bloke earlier whose father had him schooled on the Ottawa side of the river so he could speak English as well as French,he considers himself Canadian not French Canadian.
  19. I think you should head to a mountain retreat,further your journey on the path to enlightenment by collecting meritorious karma points to lighten your sack of rocks in the next life.
  20. Have you been studying Buddhism on the sly wilf?Thats the analogy of the heavy rock from the essence of Buddhism Ommmmm.

    NHS without imported staff wouldn’t exist as it does,that’s just fact,likewise the Canadian healthcare system would be on its knees,when Covid was a big thing a small hospital,can’t remember where,Saskatchewan maybe?Closed due to lack of staff.
