  1. Get yourself a kindle and be done with it .I've had mine years,what a fantastic bit of kit.Holds up to 3,500 books,you'd need to live in a mansion to store that many.The savings also are immense, 99% of the books I download are free.Cannot praise this device high enough and available from just £59.99.

  2. I ask myself that same question every time whenever i have to return to the cold, wet and depressing weather of the UK even if it's for a short while.I never moan about the weather here even in April.When i feel myself getting too hot i just spend my days in the shade at my local waterfall and think of my freezing bones being in the UK.Soon puts things into perspective.

  3. I get charged 200 baht for depositing large amount into my own account, at different bank location. I don't understand that one either.

    they charge based on what province your money is being deposited / withdrawn from. Meaning if you deposit in province X and your branch is in province Y they will charge you for that. That is my understanding at least.

    That is also my experience,and done it many times but i always get charged 45 baht from x to y.

  4. personally I think the violence between the israelies and the Palestinians will continue as long as Israel continues to expand its borders .

    More like it will continue as long as the "palestinians" don't accept the existence of the state of ISRAEL and continue with their irrational agenda of river to the sea Arabs with the Jews gone (dead or fled).

    Bottom line though, this is a problem with BOTH sides as NEITHER side has the political will to really make peace. Those who think it's only about one side or the other are part of the problem.

    There is a total lack of trust, on both sides, and with very good reasons, on both sides.

    So blathering on about demonizing Israel accomplishes basically less than nothing.

    Israelis hear this and tune it out as well they should as so many people blathering like that have the WORSE of intentions for the future of the Israeli state.

    That is a blatant lie! The Palestinians have long ago accepted the state of Israel. Arafat did so in 1993

    "LETTER FROM YASSER ARAFAT TO PRIME MINISTER RABIN
    September 9, 1993
    Yitzhak Rabin
    Prime Minister of Israel
    Mr. Prime Minister,
    The signing of the Declaration of Principles marks a new era in the history of the Middle East. In firm conviction thereof, I would like to confirm the following PLO commitments:
    The PLO recognizes the right of the State of Israel to exist in peace and security."

    And the offer has been repeated many times since.

    The whole Arab world (Hamas included) and Iran have agreed to recognize Israel in its 67 borders ...a permanent, secure internationally recognized peace agreement, exchange of ambassadors, trade, tourism, the works. The deal has been on the table since 2002, and repeated in 2007. Read about it here..

    The ball has always been in Israel's court. They hold all the power.

    Good on you Dexterm,excellent post.
