_sacrilege39-traditional-tenby-queen-victoria-red-postbox-blacked-out.jpg "Tenby train station, is one of the busiest in West Wales during the summer season, however it appears that its platform postbox was not so well used by pictured postcard writers, and as such, has been taken out of use by Royal Mail, and repainted black to signify so.<br/>John Perrett who took over station adoption duties at the seaside town five years ago, volunteering to offer his help after finding that he had more and more complaining to do to rail authorities about the poor appearance of the facility - many holidaymakers’ first impression of the resort - has been left, like many others, disgruntled that the traditional wall mounted red post box which has VR on it, denoting that Queen Victoria was monarch when its was installed, has been repainted black.<br/>“I’m disappointed and annoyed that the post box on Tenby station has recently been taken out of use. As far as I know there was no consultation and as it's a listed building I am surprised it's been allowed,” said John.<br/>“They could have blocked it up and painted the block red so it would blend in.<br/>“I’ve used it numerous times over the last few years. It's only been blocked off in the last month.”<br/>However, one local postie said that she believed that it had been decommissioned due to its lack of use and also lack of maintenance to keep it functional.<br/>“I’ve collected from that box every day for the last year or so, but I’ve collected one postcard!” said Anto O'Hara, responding to a post on Facebook about the matter.<br/>“The door is cracked on the inside and is pinned together with screws. It got to a stage that I couldn’t open the door hence why it has been decommissioned.”<br/>This was backed up by former local postman Martin Vickery who commented: “As a former postie who collected from it for years, we were lucky to get more than a couple of letters a week, and some times none at all, but it should be red like other boxes which are out of use.<br/>“Shame they did not paint the station at the same time!”<br/>One person responding however, called Royal Mail’s actions ‘sacrilege’.<br/>“Should have just been blocked up - that's sacrilege, especially with it being a queen Victoria one!” they remarked.<br/>Other locals admitted that they didn’t even know that a post box was located there; whilst many criticised Network Mail’s continued lack of upkeep at the station, labelling it a ‘filthy rubbish strewn embarrassment’ rather than the ‘pretty, inviting station’ it used to be.<br/>Sharing feedback she’d receieved after raising the matter with the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Authority, County councillor for Tenby’s south ward Cllr Sam Skyrme Blackhall said: “Royal Mail typically paint listed boxes black when decommissioned. The box is included in the listing for the station.”<br/>Senedd Member for Carmarthen West and South Pembrokeshire, Sam Kurtz said it was ‘disappointing’ and vowed to write to Royal Mail.<br/>")

_how-mikel-arteta-just-broke-man-city39s-system.jpg "It'll never do down as a classic, but Manchester City and Arsenal's 0-0 draw was a fascinating one from a tactical perspective. Both Pep Guardiola and Mikel Arteta made massive changes to their side as the game progressed, but with the draw far better for Arsenal, it's the student rather than the teacher who can claim to have come out on top.<br/><br/>Adam Clery examines how, with just one slightly better decision in the final third, the 3 points would have gone back to North London.")

_hotel-deluxe-2013.jpg "Hotel Deluxe is a 2013 Hong Kong comedy film released in commemoration with the Lunar New Year of 2013. The film was produced by Raymond Wong Pak-ming (黃百鳴) and directed by Vincent Kok Tak-chiu (谷德昭), his thirteenth as a director, and written by him along with Anselm Chan Mou-yin (陳茂賢, credited as Anselm Chan), Steven Fung Min-hang (馮勉恆), and Poon Jun Lam (潘俊霖). Hotel Deluxe features many of the recurring cast from his All's Well, Ends Well film series.<br/><br/>Hotel Deluxe concerns the Hundred Stars Hotel, located on Qiandao Lake in Hangzhou (also the key location in All’s Well Ends Well 2009), and how the hotel staff bands together to retain their five-star rating. Longtime staff members Peachey (吳君如 Sandra Ng Kwan-yue), Pacino (杜汶澤 Chapman To Man-chak) and OK Pao (鄭中基 Ronald Cheng Chung-kei) have become somewhat complacent, so the head office assigns tightfisted manager Cruella Koo (毛舜筠 Teresa Mo Shun-kwan) to oversee operations. The staff isn’t too happy with the new leadership and makes a few weak attempts at screwing with Cruella. However, she’s really a decent sort and before long she’s working with the team to solve the hotel’s many crises.<br/><br/>Besides a suspected travel critic, the annoying Jim (詹瑞文 Jim Chim Sui-man) prowling the grounds, the hotel staff must handle visiting superstars Audrey (熊黛林 Lynn Hung Dai Lin) and Marilyn (Karena Ng). Both have problems: Audrey is sickly sweet in public but foul-mouthed and difficult in private, and Marilyn is a new age oddball. While Cruella deals with Audrey (吳千語 Karena Ng Chin-yu) and her many demands, OK Pao handles Marilyn. OK Pao is a super fan of Marilyn, but that fact charms rather than repels her and soon the two develop mutual romantic feelings.<br/><br/>However, before OK Pao can get his own Notting Hill remake, old friend Bobo (薛凱琪 Fiona Sit Hoi-kei) arrives at the hotel with a special request: she must get married to keep her family inheritance, but her uncle Ho San (Raymond) seeks to stop her. However, Bobo doesn’t have a fiancé, so the staff finds a ringer in valet Mark Lui (于波 Yu Bo) and prepare to fake her wedding. The potential pairings triple when Bobo’s uncle takes a shine to Peachey, plus Bobo has unrequited feelings for OK Pao. Things eventually reach a head — but don’t worry, it all ends well. You know, just like in Raymond Wong’s other movies.")

_a-murder-is-announced-1985-part-1-192-2.jpg "The little village of Chipping Cleghorn is stunned when their local paper announces there is to be a murder committed at the home of Letitia Blacklock at 7pm that day. Naturally, all and sundry turn up at the house out of curiosity, but Miss Blacklock and the other inhabitants of the house deny putting such an advertisement in the newpaper. However, at 7pm the lights go out, 3 shots are fired - and someone lies dead on the floor...<br/><br/>This is from one of Joan Hickson's superb Miss Marple series from the 1980's, and easily one of the best they ever did. Among the many star names in this - some before they were famous - are John Castle, Ursula Howells, Renee Asherson, Simon Shepherd, Samantha Bond, Nicola King, Kevin Whately, Elaine Ives-Cameron, Sylvia Syms, Ralph Michael, Matthew Solon, Mary Kerridge, Paola Dinisotti, Joan Sims, David Collings, Vivienne Moore, Liz Crowther, Tim Charrington and Joyce Carey (here aged a sprightly 87). As well as being a fiendishly clever mystery, everyone looks to be having a lot of fun, in particular Simon Shepherd and Samantha Bond as the siblings living with and related to Miss Blacklock. This is from one of my video tapes - an old bought tape, rather than a recorded one this time, and although this was originally a 3 part mystery when broadcast on February 28th 1985, the video tape came as two 1hr 16min parts. Because of this I have had to separate those parts in two to upload on Dailymotion, so this 1st part (1/2) is the length of what would of been the 1st episode. The rest of this superb mystery will follow tomorrow sometime in 3 more parts. Until then, enjoy.")
