Seaweed maybe? Sorry. I hope you recover very soon, Loy, or maybe Roy. No disrespect!

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.

Pure genius GG. Now, what's the good news? Or is that it? 🤣🤣🤣 NILUBOLGAMMAG?

He had a couple of spliffs before going for a run, last seen heading for Calais. Lost Monty Python script, surely.

KLM?

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.

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!

But how do you know they're pointless if you don't understand them?

1. AFL is back! Crazy game, crazy people. 2. MLB is back. The polar opposite, I think. 3. That's it for now. You can add your own.

You wouldn't happen to have a list of benefits of leaving would you? I mean in real terms, not ideological terms. Taking back control? Bwahahahahaha.

Interesting you should mention shower water. I'm looking to get the tap water tested in my condo, but can't find anywhere here in Pattaya to do it. The rest I think can be ruled out as this is a fairly recent event. I've not changed my eating habits, laundry or clothing handling recently. But moved into my apartment about 6 months ago.

So a UK passport issued in 2013 might still be valid, for travel outside Europe? Until when?

I did, for 2 weeks. There wasn't any. But that doesn't rule out the problem arising there. I'll just keep on with the pills, creams and drops I guess. They at least alleviate the worst of the symptoms. Today there's very little itching, and the redness has disappeared mostly. So it's an ongoing battle.

Hmm. Think I can rule out all but flowers and trees from that list. But it could be related to my frequent visits to a spa. Communal bathing? My ears are affected too. Seems to go together. Itchy eyes and ears. Bizarre.

Yeah, I've bought drops from pharmacies, and tablets. A fraction of the cost of the Bangkok Quakkaya hospital.

Thanks, I'll give it a try.

Thanks. I went there but like the other clinics, they only test for food allergies, eg lactose. Can't find one for pollen or dust for instance. Anyway, I'm going with self medication. Anti histamine tablets, cream and drops, and my cureall cream, Germolene, which solved my right eye swelling up so I couldn't see out of it. BPH charged me 3000 for 2 visits and prescribed a lot of utterly useless and unnecessary antibiotics. Quacks! I hate them. Charged me 400 THB for their equipment, a microscope. 8 for a cotton bud. 56 for 2 eye drops. 330 for nurse.

I live in Pattaya. Anyone else experiencing extremely itchy and puffed up eyelids recently? I'm wondering if it's pollen, or maybe 2.5.

I couldn't select it in the menu system.

I would like to get my tap water tested. I'm in the Pratamnak area. ISTR the nearest laboratory is in Chonburi. Does anyone have any information on this? I'm not looking for a self test kit. I want the full analysis.

24k for cleaners? That's unheard of. 9,000 normal wage. 12,000 with the 400 minimum. And how many employees qualify for the 400 THB? Hotels with 50 employees? In very specific areas? Not the 400 minimum that Pork Pie Party promised in their election campaign across the board minimum. And if what has been written here, it's meaningless as many already earn far in excess of that.

It's crazy. One party proposes tabling amendments totally legally to a law written by law makers, ie duly elected MPs, nothing to do with the constitution and gets threatened with dissolution, being barred for 10 years etc etc. And another has an obvious bribe of 10k for everybody, as in their manifesto, and is still battling out whether or not the country can afford it, it's legality and implementation, but remains in power, no questions asked.
