  1. She appears to speak a lot of sense, as do most replying members/posters. Let's hope this happens, and soon!
  2. Even if they DO open, where will the foreigners come from? Until/Unless Swampy airport is open and Bangkok open too, no one can get here, can they?
  3. Assawin Kwanmuang for next Minister of Public Health, or better still PRIME Minister.. or how about UN Secretary General!! ????????????????????????????????????????????
  4. I am hoping that this channel/link might... https://www.pptvhd36.com/
  5. Have they not calculated the time required between first and second doses, PLUS the time after the second dose in order to claim that each kid is 'fully vaccinated.'? If someone wants to come to Thailand, they need to have had their second jab at least 14 days prior to arrival, but they let the kids go back to school soon after their first jab. Don't get me wrong, I'm well happy the kids can return to school, but why the inconsistency?
  6. If it's 'local tourism' then it's hardly revenue, is it? The money's just moving around, without the international tourist dollar coming in!
  7. While expecting a backlash from the pro-vaxxers who won't listen that I am not an anti-vaxxer, but I would like to know.... - if 99% are vaccinated, how can the 1% be a danger to the others? - if 98% are vaccinated, can the 2% be a danger to the others? ..until at some stage the smaller percentage will be a danger. But if, just if, that smaller percentage is something like 30%, then that's an unfair ratio of the majority effectively forcing their beliefs on the minority. I would assume that 80% of eligible adults are happy to be jabbed (as I have), so what's with people around the world being forced what they do with their bodies? It's similar to being forced to wear a seatbelt while driving; doing so only protects the individual, so why should others get involved? Yes, I understand that a stupid person who gets sick or injured takes up hospital services, but that could be said for many other things in life, such as people with high-risk jobs.
  8. Can't blame Yinglouck this time, but they CAN blame the storm last night! Of course, it would and could never be the fault of the Muppets in charge!
  9. It says 'allegedly intoxicated' but so many other reports have already named and found guilty the suspects. I'm not sure about the inconsistency of the system, but the sceptic in me thinks that guilt is decided by banknotes in brown envelopes, and this case is still in the negotiation phase. Apologies for going bold, but it was automatic when I pasted 'allegedly intoxicated'
  10. It was out, and is now back. To be fair, I don't think we missed out on any wonderful journalism or reporting.
  11. I reckon this is ANOTHER troll thread from an existing member who has just made a new account and now us sad Muppets are all going to queue up to offer our advice, because none of us have been anywhere near a bar girl but we all know someone who has. .???????? I reckon if the mods are able to check IP addresses, this profile would come up as the same as a TV member. ???? It might as well be a copy-pasted post that we have seen time and time again on here. Please close it, mods! Save us all a load of wasted time.
  12. I'm 100% with the OP here. I'm not antivax, but not keen on being told my kids need to have something so new, just to be able to study. Also the Thai wife thing is spot on! With limited umbers of in-class students, I feel that any kids who don't get jabbed will be told to continue online studying while their classmates go into school.
  13. Cinemas make most of their profit from snacks, not from tickets. Oh, and now days are getting shorter, the virus comes out an hour later!
  14. If the monk is/was 400 years old, he was around before Charles Darwin. Just saying... ????????????
  15. They have two options.... #1 Attach boats to bridges facing upstream and tell them to run their engines flat out, in order to get that bad flood water to the sea quicker. #2 Blame Yingluck ????????????????????
  16. Happy to announce that thanks to BestB's advice, this little dog has a new home, with a semi-retired farang... and we can visit her. Thanks again!
  17. But Sh*tovac/pharm aren't 'vaccines'. They're just saline solution! It can be administered anywhere with the same effect. Maybe put it in a bottle and spray it into the axilla!
  18. I'm already vaxxed thanks Rob... so you're missing my point. My analogy was just an example of how some people behave when in a false sense of security compared to people who feel vulnerable. But with my hermit-like lifestyle I can only really go on old memories of how I behaved on bikes and in bed. ????
  19. I'm finding it hard to see the point of these vaccines, or forcing people to have them, if things like this happen. Yes, I know the usual brigade will jump on me to say things like 'they keep people out of hospital' 'it's for the good of others etc' but in places like sports stadia, nightclubs, large companies etc where everyone must show they're vaccinated it doesn't seem to make much difference. In fact, it could be worse! Ask any motorcyclist how he/she rides without a helmet (slower) or with full leathers (faster). The same analogy could be used with a condom and casual sex. What I'm trying to say is that if we have this false sense of security of vaccines could spread covid more than common sense and personal choice.
  20. They should make previously-arrested convicts make these vinyl boards while behind bars! ????????????
  21. I find it quite ironic that this thread starts with a link to the Daily Fail/Mail. For those who are not British, this rag is a tabloid among the lowest of the low. Not worth the paper it's printed on. As for the whole vaccine argument, still nobody has made it clear to me how this works... 'You have the vaccine to protect others from getting Covid, as well as protecting yourself getting serious symptoms' and 'Even if you have had all the jabs, you can still get Covid and pass it on to others.' So, if vaccinated people can still become infected and infectious, how is it protecting those around them? To me, it all stinks of a plan by the drug companies to cash in on an annual basis worldwide! I'm not saying Covid isn't real, because it is. I'm not an anti-vaxxer and I have had an AZ jab. I'm not saying the illuminati is trying to reduce the world's population, because that's nonsense. But what I do think is that the huge drug companies are loving this, and they wield a HUGE amount of power over politicians, especially in the USA. 10 years from now, we will all be having annual shots that governments may not subsidise... and even if they do pay for them, the drug companies get paid anyway.
