Except all the big shipments come in containers, private boats and planes ... so that show amuses me somewhat, the few rare times ive watched years ago.

Thats why theres still lots of coke, ex, heroin, amphetamines and other stuff around, all imported. (just like anyplace really)

So them dogs and GE ion scanners or whatever they run over me and my stuff when they see me coming aint doing much.

Though most of the weed in Australia is grown domestically, home grown.

Sorry for the but i dont have a favourite TV show. (TV is the devil)

if i had to watch anything it would be Jay Leno's Garage, ive caught a handful of episodes on youtube in the past. (yes i know gasoline is the devil too, but driving a big block on a quiet road when no ones around is more fun than watching TV)

Oh and i do genuinely like the sound of the sea.

And a stout motor spinning to 7k plus rpm is music to me.

Lots of people do hate me for mocking TV btw, MM has a point i think.

But come to think of it, lots of people just hate me, so maybe its not the TV thing.

I must stop venting now, admittedly im a little upset....






I got my times wrong and missed out on a nice aluminum KB tall deck on ebay, it was very cheap... had been windowed but was fixable.

Engines throw rods sometimes but usually they do whats expected, unlike alot of people.

Yeah but it's not the drug runners I like to see who are few and far between. It's the people getting searched by AQIS for having a suitcase full of food and they play dumb when EVERYBODY who lives in Australia know it's a biggy over there.

This made me as in 6 weeks time I am leaving smoky old London town to move to a seaside town for the peace and tranquility and the sound of the sea.

True... idk why the fuq they bother trying.

Dont mean to be racialist but i have to admit, some of the asians ive seen in the past on that show were damn funny, trying to bring in their asian vacuum sealed food like its drugs and playing dumb.

No TV for me.

I watch online streams of The Colbert Report, Daily Show and Big Bang Theory.

I'd recommend Radio 4 for great comedy and panel games. Too many to list but I urge folk to check out their web page.

The stuff I really like is old and not in production anymore.
Of late its da vincis demons and the vikings they have running on amazon prime.
Game of thrones isn't too bad, seems everyone likes that one.

You are a Manc living overseas so yes for sure. When I lived in Oz and satellite TV first came out I was one of the first to sign up just to watch a TV channel called UKTV.

Then how do you explain the wife's addiction?

Torrents then Sunday omnibus in this house.

And not a TV show as such but David Mitchell's Unbelievable Truth on radio 4 is my favourite thing atm, you'll find loads of them on YT

Series 1-5 (13 has just started btw):

Aye, she's Greek. Not many of the Greeks who go to the UK come back with such an addiction though, mind you they do have a plethora of shockingly bad Turkish soaps to go at!

When my Aussie friends came here a few years back they were quite shocked at not finding cobbled streets and terraced houses and were honestly gobsmacked at seeing so much green countryside.

But then I picture you and Mrs Oi as living in a white and blue house on Santorini riding to work on your donkeys.

Nah, when Oi's on his ass, it's probably excess retsina at the root.

I like Radio 4 Xtra - all the old comedy, Goon show etc - thats background of choice for me. I used to listen to Radio 4 but some of the political spin on there sends me apoplectic.
