Ban all guns other than for farmers living out in the sticks that rely on hunting game for food, or shooting vermin. Anyone found owning a gun and not having a license, receiving an automatic one year prison sentence and the gun confiscated. In the UK I had a gun license for rabbit shooting but no gun. I used a friends gun. I had to renew the license annually. I had it for one year and forgot to go to the police station to renew it. A week after it lapsed, a copper came to the door and asked for my license. I had to go to the police station and explain why I hadn't renewed it. I cancelled the license. I'm not a gun lover anyway. The point I'm making is that in the UK, and Australia I believe, there is strict control over guns and anyone possessing one illegally will go to jail. The Brits don't arm teachers in schools!

Health Ministry approves medical use of opium and magic mushrooms
Gandtee replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Don't worry. It will all go wobbly just like the cannabis and 'five yaba pills' debacles. There is a lack of forward thinking and planning in those that make decisions for the country. -

My wife suffered acute kidney problems in the 1970s before it became a prescription drug back in the UK. -
0600 every day a go for a short walk. A local dog used to have a go at me every morning when I neared its house. Barking and doing what it is supposed to do to alert the owner? After a few stare downs and a crouch down as if i was getting ready to throw a stone, it would back off, but then I changed tactics. I carried a crust of bread in my pocket and fed it to the dog when it came at me.. It ate the bread then amazingly, it ripped my leg to pieces. No. Seriously. After a couple of times doing this it still barks, but does not attempt to attack me. Maybe it's thinking 'if I'm not careful he is going to feed me that crap again.' π

What's a reasonable price for a lady drink?
Gandtee replied to TheFatOne's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
While offering this advice, I must confess that the last, and maybe the first lady's drink I bought was way back in 1988. The bars I frequented are what I call men's bars. Not Girly, or Boys Bars, but a place where you could get a descent conversation and humour, without the hassle. The Shamrock Bar in Pattaya is a good example. Being a bit long in the tooth now, driving there is a bit/very off putting, I'm sad to say.
