  1. I have not received any post in this forum for a long time, in fact, it appears to have been eliminated. Also, regular posts in the jokes forum have also stopped coming.
  2. My 17 year old granddaughter wants to study medicine at university. However, she just fails. marginally. to make the grades required. She is almost a year too young for her year at school so has time on her side. Are their any colleges in the Chiangmai area where she may study intensively to bring her up to the standard asked?
  3. I did a similar thing a few weeks ago. Bar staff at my favourite pub told me that' as usually happened, my sister-in-law's car had stopped outside to take me home. I toddled out, got into a silver Camry, to be confronted with a horrified strange woman. I apologized profusely, got out and spotted my s-i-l in her identical silver Camry just in front.
  4. I disagree with a lot of her expounded views, but for is I admire her. Peerages and the like have degenerated into bribes.
  5. More job opportunities for (illegal?) immigrants in the coming years.
  6. Correct proper porridge is cooked from raw oatmeal, water, and a touch of salt, add milk or cream to taste.
  7. My daughter was dissatisfied withe her nose. Against my objection, in her early twenties she had silicon injections which lengthened her nose. 20 odd years later it all went wrong and she needed an extensive reconstruction which required cartilage to be taken from her ribs. LADIES, DO NOT DO IT!
  8. IT WORKED! Thank you.
  9. I am using Firefox browser on an old Windows OS. I used to have a Menu Bar at the top of the page. It contained File, View, Edit, etc. About a week ago it disappeared and I cannot find how to restore it. Advice requested from Firefox experts please.
  10. Metropolitan Police should be investigated or their failure to act in the face of the many complaints which were ignored!
  11. Street lights not working, a red herring. What happened to the headlights on the vehicle?
  12. I recall "cheap housing" being built in Glasgow in the 1960s. Within 30 years they had to be demolished due to their dangerous state while the post war prefabs were still viable
  13. Where does this word "burglarised" come from? What is wrong with "burgled"? ?
  14. She dressed comfortably for a long flight.
  15. How many will just ignore it? They can go on earning money for many years with only a small fine if caught.
  16. It results in navigational instrument having to be adjusted to take account of the difference between degrees true (based on the geographic North pole)and degrees magnetic. The difference has been predictable far centuries and was published on charts as moving so many minutes East or west per year. Its the current unpredictabilty that is causing concern.
  17. I have never seen a Thai electrician who has shown any fear of electricity.
  18. It's actually on the MIDDLE ring road according to Google maps.
  19. It was. I had never heard of any jellyfish so named.
  20. I am confused, to me a bluebottle is a big fly.
  21. Does nobody own or use a Fire Blanket?
  22. It is referred to as a"Tourist Tax". Will it also apply to Non-Imm visa holders and those returning long stay farangs?
