  1. A good point. Half my ashes will be scattered in Sattahip Bay to join my mother, who died here in 2000. And where my wife and Thai family can throw a flower in, the Thai way, if they so desire. The other half will go back to England to be scattered to join my first wife's ashes, who died in 1982 and is the mother of my children.
  2. As an onlooker, it would appear that Trump has the Supreme Court in his pocket.
  3. Now, if a policeman's son had been assaulted, they would have come down on it like a ton of bricks. Come to think of it, the police did assault a policeman's son. But as dad was a cop, he got immediate attention.
  4. World Leaders must think, with friends like him, who needs enemies? He turns on those who once thought he was a friend. He is like a snake. Apologies to snakes.
  5. Tell her, or him, to bugger off. 😉
  6. In Thailand.
  7. My wife and I went to our local bank to renew our bank cards. We paid the renewal fee. Later, my wife received a call from the teller saying she had made a mistake and overcharged us for the transaction. She then asked what account we wanted it credited to. No, she didn't ask for account numbers. If she had I would have been on the alert. But how refreshing that someone admits to making a mistake. I've found that quite rare here. Renewed faith in human nature.
  8. My 76 years old cycling friend is still recovering after more than two months after a dog ran into his front wheel. I used to chide him for feeding stray dogs and adding to the problem. The irony.
  9. Where do these loonies come from? Like King Canute ordering the tide not to come in.
  10. Goodness gracious. How audacious. The bald audacity of these people. It's hair-raising.
  11. One of the aunties used to bring a bag of those, fried, down from Chiang Mai. Very nice too. Better than Smiths crisps.
  12. So, who makes the laws and rules here? It seems like any Tom, Dick and Police General. And anyone who sees their nice little earners taking a hit.
  13. Not for me. I carry a copy in my passport and one in my wallet. My friend has deleted his approval slip. Thanks for the replies. All much the same as I advised him.
  14. Is a copy of the 90 day approved receipt required when extending a retirement visa?
  15. For years I have had an account with the foremost Bangkok, English language online newspaper. I used to be signed in automatically. Recently, after changing sites and going back to the newspaper site, I have to sign in again. Could it be that some of my comments are non PC? Anyone experiencing similar?
  16. After eating oysters in a seaside restaurant next to the oyster beds. "They must be fresh. There is a Government Health and Cleanliness certificate posted." The bottom fell out of my world. The world fell out of my bottom more's the like.🤢
  17. If ordinary workers did not show up for work, they would be sacked. Why aren't these?
  18. They are softer to land on. or act as airbags for the parents in a head on collision.
