  1. OK. Answer me this - if it had been a tourist whose visa expired the day before, would you blame the tourist for being smashed into by a drunk pick-up driver? After all, he shouldn't have been there and if he had left it would never have happened.
  2. Perhaps these very poor countries don't have the machinery to plough back, after all, the total wealth of all 3 countries combined is barely a fifth of Thailand. The small farmers have little choice. Added to that there will be an element of burning for illegal purposes (logging, clearing etc) in all 4 countries and Thailand cannot be expected to clear up illegal activity in its neighbours but it could use its wealth to donate ploughing machinery to its neighbours rather than buying military hardware and then complaining they have smoke in their eyes. But that won't happen....
  3. Rubbish. They were hit from behind by a pick up truck whose driver was drunk. And you blame the parents???
  4. Wonderfully trivialised by describing it as 'dust'. A quick once over with the Hoover to solve it perhaps?
  5. Pad Thai Looks like two words to me
  6. Never mind the wife's family, what about the dogs?
  7. Relax Be like two fried eggs....
  8. From the same source that brought you "Iraq has the capability of launching weapons of mass destruction within 45 minutes". Lots of people believed that until the truth emerged.
  9. And yet, in the Olympics, the only individual sport where there is equality is equestrianism. Sailing used to be but they separated that in 2012.
  10. I don't know - you just close your eyes for a little relaxation and some nutcase starts shouting the odds about a tree ....
  11. Figures from 2017 it seems. Not like there has been any kind of economic wobble since then...
  12. On your first thought - my first thought was you had not read the linked article as it has more details.
  13. Incoming passengers are requested to arrive at least 10 minutes before their aircraft to avoid queues
  14. He has very suspicious looking eyes
  15. Surprised they didn't try for a 6000 month delay
  16. That's what SHOULD happen but the grass roots of the tories are the ones who select/deselect and they are huge fans of Boris. Sunak only has big support among the MPs, with the obvious exception of the ReformUK wing of the party (Rees-Smug, the idiot Dorries, Truss, Boris and the other nutters) who shout louder than the rest - as empty vessels usually do.
  17. Is that the same BBC that is chaired by a friend of a previous tory PM who he assisted to get an £850000 loan as that PM was incapable of living within his means? The same friend who after doing that big favour got appointed as chairman of the BBC.
  18. I thought the Thai 'manly' way was to get a dozen or so mates and jump the other guy when he's not looking.
  19. ... along with a one way ticket to somewhere safe perhaps?
  20. I expect it will be put down to micro-brake failure dropping off high...
  21. And its showing a Windows 2000 or 7 style bar, not a 3.1 ATMs are being migrated to a version of windows 10 throughout the world but it will take a while... https://www.paymentscardsandmobile.com/atm-migration-to-windows-10-the-time-is-near/
  22. Buy yourself a nice top-of-the-range Ferrari and then explain you have no money left as you spent it all on an unimportant trinket. I'm sure she'll understand...
  23. Highly unlikely. The original had a fabulous script and 50% of the writers are not involved. The original had a fantastic cast but they are all now 50 years older or dead. Sequels rarely succeed because the magic of the original cannot (or will not) be recreated. (The Italian Job, Mary Poppins etc) This is also highly unlikely to be made by the BBC so the sets won't be wobbly. It might get picked up by Netflix if it has any success but as it appears to have no distribution, that might be just tricky
  24. This might help https://www.swimmingpool.com/blog/black-algae-and-your-swimming-pool/
