Mike. I have an offshore (Isle of Man) private pension fund that's due to start paying in April 2024. It was funded solely by my (very taxed) income in Thailand, will I have to pay tax on the funds again when it is re-imported (i.e. spent)??

On wine? Isn't there a risk of a thermonuclear explosion? I have room to talk, i get the family to bring over mushy peas and decent Brit teabags each year

Even as a Brit from 't-North (Bolton) I never got into Marmite. Bovril, Vimto (a fruit drink and an anagram of vomit) and mushy peas, yes but Marmite

Try Lazada But not many actual food items on the Velveeta search.

It's been banned as a WMD by the Geneva Convention

Why not post it in the already running thread? As it doesn't directly mention Thailand it's off-topic for General.

Says an already blue-painted person Agree 100% of course We did design our home in line with the basic premises but since Madam is the oldest what she says goes anyway.

Sounds useful, can you post a photo please? I bet some place in China is banging them out, just got to find it.

How big is your lawn? Any obstructions to long-range sprinkler operation (trees)? Are you prepared to dig it up to install pop-ups and their pipework? Do you have a drought-resistant turf variety? How is your water pressure? Need a pump? In reality, a hose with one of those portable whizzy sprinkler units on the end has to be the cheapest / easiest solution.

And with that we can draw this thread to a close. Please continue in one of the many others on the subject.

I'm afraid that genie is well and truly out of the bottle now. No U turns possible.

Yeah, ours is due next week too. The last few times the rate has changed it's not been reflected immediately and been corrected in the next bill. PEA should be used to implementing these changes by now

This ^^^ and a slapped wrist if the IO is in a bad mood or into S&M.

Just a different set in government this year.

Don't park in the sun Sorry, but I had the same issue, never found a reliable solution

Little Red Riding Hood was on her way to grandmother’s house when all of a sudden, the Big Bad Wolf jumps out of bushes. “What do you want?” cried Red Riding Hood. “I’m gonna shag you!” howled the Big Bad Wolf. Pulling a pistol from her picnic basket, Little Red Riding Hood exclaims “Oh, no! You’re gonna eat me, just like the book says.”

Upon arriving home, a husband was met at the door by his sobbing wife. Tearfully she explained, "It's the pharmacist. He insulted me terribly this morning on the phone." Immediately the husband drove downtown to confront the pharmacist and to demand an apology. Before he could say more than a few words, the druggist told him, "Now, just a minute, please listen to my side of it... This morning the alarm failed to go off, so I was late getting up. I went without breakfast and hurried out to the car, just to realize that I locked the house with both house and car keys inside. I had to break a window to get my keys. Then, driving a little too fast, I got a speeding ticket. Later, about three blocks from the store, I had a flat tire. When I got to the store there was a bunch of people waiting for me to open up. I opened and started waiting on these people, and all the time the darn phone was ringing off the hook." He continued, "Then I had to break a roll of nickels against the cash register drawer to make change, and they spilled all over the floor. I got down on my hands and knees to pick up the nickels; the phone was still ringing. When I came up I cracked my head on the open cash drawer, which made me stagger back against a showcase with bunch of perfume bottles on it...all of them hit the floor and broke. Meanwhile, the phone is still ringing with no let up, and I finally got to answer it. It was your wife. She wanted to know how to use a rectal thermometer...and, honestly mister, all I did was tell her!"

It was a long two hours, as the priest heard no confessions, and was about to close up the church and go back to the rectory. Then he hears a noise, and sees a drunk man staggering toward the confessional booth. “oh well, this ought to be interesting”, he thinks, as the drunk enters the penitent booth. The priest waited for five minutes, hearing all kinds of noises from the drunk, but no confession. So he finally whispers “can I help you, my son?” The drunk replies, “yeah, can you pass me some toilet paper? this stall is all out”.

One of those annoying things that you just can't un-see once you spot it.
