How bitter you must be.  How much of your money, above what you need for housing and food, do you give to the poor each year?  Everyone has a right to do what they want with the money they earned.  So many here on TV just pathetic, that they hate success.  Sour grapes, perhaps.  

The great thing about being at the bottom is that you don't have so far to fall and I guarantee that I give more than you.  It is those that don't give that accumulate and call it success.

I don't have any advice, just a question.

Is there any difference??????

Very sad day all round.

Freedom of the press is almost extinct and the Thai army will be watching this fiasco in democratic London with interest.

Australian gov are cowards for not getting him out of the UK after renewing his passport.

They're more interested in grovelling to muslim refugees in distant airports than helping real Australians. Disgusting.

Assange will be extradited to USA courtesy of their British lapdogs.

What are the odds he will disappear into the vast prison system in USA and die away.

 

Whatever would make you think that the Australian government has any interest in what happens to Australian people?

Love the guy and his ability and persistence but I feel sorry for every other golfer.  Tiger is a freak of golf which means that he is beyond idolizing.  An idol should inspire the next generation, like a good teacher, but I feel that the young are somewhat destroyed by knowing that they will never be that good.

Plenty more just use google.

There is never any source when the word 'can' is used.

'Can' can mean one in a million or more.

What makes me think it will be a short, little story?

Got a feeling that it might be closer than the polls predict.

Hard to tell if the fringe parties are going to do very well or be a big fat nothing. Senate should be interesting.

All they can offer is that the tradies will lose their utes because of electric cars. What a really different world it is down under.

I dont actually live in Pattaya at all: I'm in Jomtien which is much more sedate. There really isnt much choice in Thailand, I think. I certainly would not want to live very far away from a major tourist destination like Pattaya or Chiang Mai or Bangkok or Phuket as I appreciate the farang shopping/restaurants that those places offer.

CM would be my first choice apart from the smog. Phuket is too expensive and crowded. Bangkok is too big. So Jomtien it is. Hua Hin would be a possibility too but it's a bit small.

I'm certainly not alone and I know many other people who have retired here for exactly the same reasons.

So Kalasin is out of the question then?

Is it possible that he upset someone who is fond of wearing a white jacket and a lot of ribbons.  It sounds like that sort of power that could be exercised so quickly.

There is some dirty business between DT and Iran going back some years.  Looks like he's trying to create some distance.

I have never been there. Are you suggesting that I keep it that way.

Suffice to say that there is Thailand and then there is Pattaya.
