Re: 2018 World Cup in Russia
wc.png Mexico matched Brazil from the start but the South Americans gradual got better & better as the match wore on. arjay has already given a good summary of the Belgium game. For once their Premiership star starters had an off day. Is that a sign of what is to come or just a rare off day?? They ...

Re: 2018 World Cup in Russia
It looks like the Spanish media are not too pleased with their exit.. https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/44682034 I guess England will get pasted in the press if Columbia turn them over but, to be honest, at least the FA didn't sack the manager as they arrived in Russia & appoint someone with no exp...

Re: 2018 World Cup in Russia
wc.png I thought Russia were playing for the penalty shoot out from the get go. Spain had possession by the ton but never looked like doing anything with it. All in all a disappointing game to watch. I didn't see the Croatia game, but, by all reports, it was 5 minutes of fun at the start & then the...

Re: 2018 World Cup in Russia
wc.png France came good at the right time. Although it was a number of good individual efforts that saw them through rather than a team effort. Kylian Mbappé man of the match with a couple of goals. The weight of the world (well Argentina anyway) on Lionel Messi's shoulders just proved too much for...

Re: Linux Mint 19
Yes Stan, but I think that they are dependant on the Desktop you use. I am a Cinnamon fan - being an ex-Windows user - because everything seems in the 'right' place for me there. Here is a list of the Cinnamon shortcut keys. It is the Mint 18 list as I haven't seen a 19 one yet - but I suspect it wi...

It will be supported for updates until 2023. It is based on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, released earlier this year, & comes in 3 des...

Re: 2018 World Cup in Russia
wc.png Hard to judge the England v Belgium game as both sides made so many changes - England 8, Belgium 9. The one thing it appeared to confirm is that England have almost no hope of winning if Harry Kane misses a game. England will play the difficult Colombia on Tuesday, Belgium face the far easie...

Re: England v Australia 50 over tour
The 20 20 game didn't go much better for Australia. Australia at least won the toss, but then rather threw away even that victory by putting England into bat. Very in form Buttler was put in to open & made the best of it with the quickest ever half century by an English batsman off 22 balls. England...

Re: 2018 World Cup in Russia
wc.png Brazil looked a bit more like a Brazil side going forward but didn't look too special in defence when Serbia finally decided that they needed to score. Still, the only aim of the group stage is to get through it & Brazil do that as winners. That means that they will face Mexico in the next r...

Re: Non Immigrant O or OA Visa
My understanding of a multiple entry OA visa is that you get 1 year on entry but you need to do the 90 day report at your local Immigration Office (or online) while you are in Thailand - no need to physically exit the country. However just before the visa expiry date if you do physically exit & retu...

Glad it worked out for you samster.
Is it a multiple entry OA ?
If so then that is you sorted for the next 2 years & makes the £200 much more reasonable...

Re: England v Australia 50 over tour
It didn't get much better for Australia in the next match at Durham. Australia won the toss & (probably sensibly after England's last total) elected to bat. They complied a more than reasonable 310 for 8 off their 50. Probably a bit below par, given that after openers Finch & Head managed to get to ...

Re: 2018 World Cup in Russia

There might have been controversy in the Australian equaliser but it was a decent performance by them. They are probably out of the World Cup but have certainly not disgraced themselves. Franc...
