I don't get any notice anymore the way I always used to, sometimes my order would come the next day or two, three or four days later. I can't be staying in the house all that time not knowing when my order is coming.

I understand that, but surely they must accept some responsibility for their sellers, as some of them are cheats as has been proved in the past.

I am sure he is, you can have a debate with him without any nonsense being involved, unlike some posters I could mention.

If refusing to use the word Gay instead of the proper word Homosexual makes me Homophobic then yes, I am Homophobic.

When I was a school teacher, there was myself and three other westerners, a few Thai's, and a Chinese girl in the same staff room. Every morning the Chinese girl would walk in wai ing everybody at every desk she passed, watching her was like watching a duck waddling past.

Yes. I do.

There is nothing more stupid than someone saying to some else "if you don't like it go home" What about the UK guy who was told "if you don't like it go and live in some other country". A person has got to live somewhere. The good far outweighs the bad here in Thailand compared to the UK, and that is despite living in a country ruled by unelected soldiers, or having a government that was not elected by the Thai people.

I accept everything the poster is saying, but the other side is I feel safe walking around Bangkok and Pattaya, never had a problem in 17 years, though it has to be said that I was never out after 11pm or frequenting bars, I could never feel safe in any UK city after dark the way I do in Thailand.

Sorry JT, but if it was normal both you and I and everyone else would not be here today. I have a lot of respect for you as a poster, but this time we should just agree to disagree.

I won't answer this as I do not want to offend anyone.

That is very interesting, I will look it up. Thanks.

The problem, and it was a big problem at one time in the UK, was teachers telling their pupils that homosexuality was normal, that was very wrong.

There were no homosexual scenes in Are You Being Served, I take it you mean Mr Humpfries. "I'm free". So he behaved in an effeminate manner, I found that very entertaining and funny.

Actually you are right it is an exaggeration, I understand only about one in twenty guys are homosexual. In the very odd time I see two of them together in a scene in a TV series I just turn away, it happens so rarely it is not a problem for me.

If you feel that way, why do you use the word gay? You know what the proper word is.

That would not make sense I have used my Bangkok Bank debit card for years with Lazada and there is always much more than enough to cover what I buy from them.

I have ordered an item from Lazada about 3 hours ago, after going through the normal procedure and paid my usual way by debit card which I have done for years, I was told that my order is being processed. There are numbers counting down to this process nonsense. Anyone ever had this? Why should they want to process anything? I have never had any problems with payments in the many years I have dealt with them.

The worst thing is that the majority of Thai drivers lack common sense, and that is more important than any education or training where driving is concerned.

It all depends on the condition of the slower lane or the hard shoulder, The first lane is often damaged by overladen lorries.

All that matters is how much the hospital managers get to fill their pockets.

I wonder just how many of these hospital managers became very rich during the Chinese virus.

Spot on. First class insurance also includes medical treatment.

I didn't know that, that gives me a bit of security when I am on my motorbike. I have always hated the thought of being in an accident and being refused any treatment. Does that apply to both private and government hospitals? May I point out that I always had first class insurance on my motorbike but it was stopped after the bike was 6 years old, it is hard to get insurance on an eight year old bike, but I have applied again and am just waiting for approval.

Since when did any authorities in Thailand bother about laws? Unless of course there is money involved somewhere.

I went into AIS on Monday to see about a problem with my phone, I had to go back the following day because the problem was not fixed at all. Looking for the girl who served me I had no chance. All the girls were wearing the same clothes, had long black hair and were wearing masks.
