Horace Rumpole was a barrister. Great creation by John Mortimer.

Loyaltylobby is good.

The rich there have always lived in heavily guarded compounds

I didn't know he could write!

I thought you didn't need to get out of bed!

Indeed!

Paywall. As its the Daily Mail, any facts stated should not be trusted.

I wouldn't know...

I flew from HK back to London, years ago with Virgin. I looked at the moving map, and we seemed to going the wrong way, towards Japan! The Captain came on and said we had to change our route due to a huge storm. We went towards Japan for a couple of hours, then turned left, so to speak. This added 3 and a half hours to the flight! Luckily they had enough fuel, and champagne....

I thought you only flew on budget airlines? Changing at least twice!

'It's a bit scary actually 🫣' Scary for whom?

I was alluding to the recent controversy of the Cambridge Professor with the fictional cv!

I wish I was a TV one, would make more money! And, as I am English, I am not an attorney!

Funnily enough, this was an issue i deakt with quite a lot, especially in the USA where pollution laws are very strict, high fines and prison possible. Some Chief Engineers were very creative with their Oil Record book! Ship Owners' insurers won't cover the fines. Things are much better than they were, due to more strict regulations. In America, OPA 90. When I was a kid on the South Coast of England, tar balls every tide, as ships flushed out their tanks as they went through the english channel.

He was a carpenter!

Cambridge?

And over complex language!

They are more than 10 seconds, it's true!

Impressive!

I have frequently stayed at Viroth's, gay friendly, close to centre, great service. However I think that they are now overcharging for what you get. Rooms are nice, retro, but somewhat basic, and in high season, can be US$350,or more if you have a suite. Big selling point is that it is small, 32 rooms i think, with a big swimming pool. I am going to try a new hotel 2 blocks away, Angkor Village Hotel, looks much more luxurious, and cheaper, and a member of the 'Small Luxury Hotels of the World' . Due there end September. Not been to Arthur and Paul.

Thanks, on reflection, I think i was told it was the BTS card that was restricted. I didntvthink about the Metro. Yes, I am amused!

Multi awarded by you?

I believe it was only available to residents, or so I was told?

Direct Messages, I imagine?
