Was he looking in a mirror?

And in 3 months time what will happen? Why, an extension to the grace period. It'll be like the state of emergency !

Would you prefer a policeman as described or one with normal length hair who does his job efficiently?

Perhaps he should have some children doing the cleaning around his house, the cooking and maybe a few to dance around some poles to get some practical work experience.

I see they've got the big brains working on this. Next, householder will be advised to point their fans in a northerly direction to blow the rain clouds away...

Gosh, they're really pulling out all the stops to fix the controversial rice pledging scheme which defrauded farmers. After a mere 10 years they must need an extension after such rapid progress and the unpaid farmers must be overjoyed....

7. Massive gold chains should only be worn during the hours of daylight

I wonder what he expected to happen after he moved his hand rapidly towards the attendant's head. A choir of angels to start singing?

Shock news... turkeys didn't vote for Christmas

In the words of Mandy Rice-Davis, "He would say that, wouldn't he?"

Father Ted Crilly comes to mind....

'Donated' rather than being scrapped, because scrapping is so much more expensive.

A similar event happened a couple of years ago at the Jerez MotoE race track. In that case it wasn't any cheapo batteries or chargers but 18 hugely expensive electric racing bikes. Believed to have been caused by a short circuit. https://www.eurosport.co.uk/moto/motoe-reveals-cause-of-fire-that-destroyed-bikes_sto7206120/story.shtml Then a few months later, another bike caught fire after the battery exploded when being charged at the Austrian race and again the following year yet another one caught fire at the Barcelona track while being charged. If it can happen to top quality, well maintained racing motorbikes then it should be no surprise when a few cheap golf carts do the same thing. Fires involving li-ion batteries are really dangerous as they burn so intensely

Including everybody on buses and, presumably no standing passengers. Or do they mean some passengers in some vehicles?

In fact, exactly the same thing happens in his home country. A tiny minority of immigrants behave badly and a whole tranche of people blame all the country's ills on immigrants.

Amsterdam has a modest river running through it - the Amstel - and flooding used to be because of North Sea surges. In the case of Bangkok, there is a huge river and the flooding is usually due to run off from the north and central parts of the country. I can't see how the Amsterdam solution would help. The same problem exists in Vietnam with the Mekong delta and in Bangladesh with the 3 main rivers (the Ganges, Brahmaputra and Meghna).

I take the Oscar Wilde view on fashion "Fashion is a form of ugliness so intolerable that we have to alter it every six months."

25% return after 3 months..... presumably this comes with many free lunches..

So in the true spirit of ecology conservation, they burn fossil fuels for lighting rather than using solar charged battery lighting....

'Girl suffers from common illness - covid vaccine blamed' would be a better headline https://www.naaf.org/alopecia-areata-in-children

More likely they find tuberculosis and/or brucellosis in the milk to be processed.

Still remarkably cheap. Just checked the UK price for 15kg of propane - current price is £54 (2300Bt).

You can still produce diesel from used cooking oil. Its not difficult. However, the limitation is the vehicle engine. Modern high pressure injection diesels cannot use this as it gums up the works. If you have something like an early 1990s car with a low pressure injection system, no problem. The biggest problem is the lack of base material (the used cooking oil).

All of them - except the ones that aren't produced in the Golden Triangle and those that aren't exported. Just saying.

30mph = 13.4 metres/second So even at 30mph the car was only pushed sideways for just 1.5 seconds, hardly any time to scream in terror. Quite how a truck managed to t-bone the car on an apparently straight road is a mystery and down to Thai driving 'skills'. The same skills that meant they were travelling at 30 or lower in the right lane on a dual carriageway.
