Pheu Thai is reformist, not neo conservative party, Thaksin claims
bradiston replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
“Today, our lawn may not be green, but we have fertiliser and a lawn mower. If we all help out, our lawn will turn green. This is our home, we must overcome our bitter past,” said Srettha. This lawn is dead. It is no more. It has passed on. It's gone to lawn heaven. What you see here is a fake lawn. Artificial lawn. No mowing required. And no fertiliser. And no rake off. -

What a ham. And what's he doing getting involved in political debate around "his party's future"? Isn't this expressly proscribed in his case? Where's the NACC? Ban him and his party. Thai Rak Thai in the Thai language is only a few letters off Thai Trick Thai. Enough said. -
Bangchak's website has a lot of info. Current prices and historical. 91 was 32.98 on Jan 4th. Today, 38.48. So 5.5 THB rise. 16.5% rise. https://www.bangchak.co.th/en/oilprice/historical

The Gold enigma.
bradiston replied to swissie's topic in Jobs, Economy, Banking, Business, Investments
The best whoever it was commented on my post, can come up with is a sad emoji. How pathetic is that? Can't argue or won't argue? Illiterate maybe? Latest Kremlin briefing not arrived yet? -

Stealing from the Russians? Only Putin and his gang do that. It's not just the US that has come up with the idea of making Russia pay for their wilful destruction of Ukrainian infrastructure, and the poisoning of millions of hectares of agricultural land. The EU is also in support of this, and I'm sure Japan and all the other Western allies are in full agreement. Western investments in Russia were seized by the Kremlin and have probably been written off a long time ago. Now, we have $300 billion of their overseas holdings. That's like a down payment. The rest can come later. -
I don't think so. To burn your bridges means to eliminate any means of retreat. Nothing to do with britches.

The debate is more to do with using the $300 billion to rebuild Ukraine. And quite rightly. -

If your gold's in a Swiss vault, come WWIII, chances are Putin's going to blow it up and empty it. It's the only way he can keep the Russian kleptonomy alive. Get out of gold! -
See here for a full explanation of the digits on a Thai id card: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thai_identity_card But I doubt the bank's software is going to do a look up. Accessing the government's database on citizen's info looking for a match would surely not be allowed. (Cue the rabid globalist conspiracy theoreticians .....)

Not so sure. A week ago he cleaned my itchy ears and charged me 900 THB. A week later, itchy as hell and crusty skin.

His wife apparently mentioned it but it might well have been dreamt up by a story seeking journo. On such rumours are laws built. Irresponsible reporting if not confirmed. TPN should publish a retraction if it's found not to be the case. It's a pity the god of ganja can't sue for defamation. Maybe the Ganja Traders Association could, if it existed. I suggest they form an alliance amongst themselves to defend the good name of ganja. I'm sure there'd be millions applying to join. Sue the butts off these quacks and politicians who defame it.

Nonsensical logic. What 3 letter acronyms "have a point"? Does the acronym BBC have a point, leading you to understand its true meaning, as there are several. The point of an acronym is ease of use. Nothing to do with semantics, or semiology. Many people, I imagine all Aussies and most Americans, know what at least one stands for, so by your definition, they are far from pointless. You not understanding them, or being too bone idle to find out their meaning, does not render them pointless. It just renders your comment pointless. The topic was supposed to be light-hearted. Gloomy outlook over your way I guess. -
Barred from Europe: 2.4m Brits caught in post-Brexit passport chaos
bradiston replied to Social Media's topic in World News
Euro trash? You mean, if it wasn't for the Yanks, and Hitler deciding to invade Russia instead of us. But history lessons are frowned upon here. I had a friend who was rabidly pro Brexit. Bullied, trolled and abused anyone speaking out against it. Soon after the vote took place, all he could come out with was, guess what, "Get over it. It's democracy. Move on." The bloody cheek of it! Ruined millions of people's plans for living, working, and travelling in Europe. And that's just for starters. He spends 6 months of the year here, and the rest divided between France, Turkey and his model village in the UK. Farage got himself an EC passport and moved to France. And Johnson? Who cares? He has Czech citizenship I believe. -

Title of thread "Barred from Europe: 2.4m Brits caught in post-Brexit passport chaos". Note the reference to post-Brexit. You've posted 12 times. Just get over it! Time to move on! -

Ah, what's the point. You can't be bothered to look up MLB or AFL. Major League Baseball? Australian Football League? 2 3 character searches in Google and all is revealed. Now SNAFU - that might qualify as an oxymoron. -

Why don't you admit it was a total disaster? Or show me the upside? And quoting "the vast majority of people" is such an old hack! -
