    Anyone Seen A Missing ATM?

    There's an easier way to make a withdrawal if you forget your pin.

    Recent movies you saw - recommend or no

    Thursday Murder Club on Netflix. The cast is Ben Kingsley, Helen Mirren, Pierce Brosnan and more. Should be amazing with that cast right? Wrong. It's utter shite. Netflix do better.

    IOM Manx Grand Prix

    Even without the races the Isle of Man is worth visiting. The oldest parliament in the world (Tynewold), the only spot in the UK to see England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales (Snaefell). Wonderful seafood (Manx kippers). The largest working water wheel in the world (Laxey wheel), tailless Manx...

    Soccer/football thread 2022

    Leoni reminds me of Paulo Maldini. I hope that's who he grows into. You also forgot the 16 year old wonderkid that won the game against Newcastle. If Liverpool can mould a team from these individuals they will be unstoppable. Exciting indeed.

    Steps towards a simpler life

    Like Lightcycle said there's a bunch of things you just don’t think about that can impact everyday life. We've been looking into this for a while. In Panama people regularly burn their trash as collections can be sporadic or paid for and some people don’t want to pay. It can be a bit worrying...

    So it's that time again....winter pasttimes?

    You're probably fine with eavestroughs without a tether. My height restriction is about 50 meters or so I think. Maybe more. If you have a DJI drone it's an automatic setting anyway, no need to worry as it's georestricted.

    So it's that time again....winter pasttimes?

    You may be limited to altitude for the drones there. I am due to the local airport here. The good news is that you don’t need to go that far to escape the restrictions. This is for sub 250g drones though. Big ones have their own set of rules.

    Soccer/football thread 2022

    They need time to get these people settled in and playing as a team. Wirtz is only just starting to show what he can do. He's looked a bit nervous up to now. Kerkez is doing well. Ekitike seems like a class signing.

    Steps towards a simpler life

    Sorry to hear that. It takes a lot of organization. You need lawyers for everything there including buying cars etc. First you have to find lawyers you trust though which is no small feat and you need to realize that there's a bunch of people just waiting to fleece you of cash.

    I watched the game. That was a laser guided free kick. Amazing strike. If we get Guehi too that would be good.

    Steps towards a simpler life

    Schools aren’t bad and if you really want to spend a bit there are international schools for expat kids in most places where expats congregate. I don’t see it as any different to French immersion just this is Spanish immersion. The kids left some friends and made new ones. If you have an army...

    Steps towards a simpler life

    Years ago I met an expat in Costa Rica when we were arranging to hand off some things for school kids there. She originally worked in Montreal and her job was high stress and she had been told there was a high chance of stroke from heart issues etc. She decided to sell everything, quit her job...

    We Know you Ride, But do you Shoot?

    To ease my mind a little I keep my reloading stuff in explosives/flammables bags from Amazon.
