My brain is like an Internet browser; 12 tabs are open and 5 of them are not responding, there's a GIF playing in an endless loop,... and where is that annoying music coming from?

This is horrific for Thailand but also very strange that here in the UK - shortly after midnight on Thursday our time - that this is the first report I've seen of the explosions.
Despite having Beeb radio on this evening and much of Tuesday and Wednesday morning - and watching Beeb News Tuesday - Ok not Beeb World, but still an incident of this size surely should have filtered down by now? Especially if as thought western tourists have been involved.
And btw Buksi I couldn't run those vids you posted at the beginning either. The time bars at the bottom ran but vids didn't.
I can understand if any news material has been blocked though. Thailand certainly doesn't need this.
