liddelljohn replied to webfact's topic in Bangkok News
In UK one has to show ID to get into many pubs and clubs,, some even take fingerprints electronicly and photos ,,,, It depends on the local police and clowncil,, Its very OTT IMHO and I avoid those places like the plague ,,, Brighton is notorious some parts of london do it too,, its very big brother ,,,,the security people on the doors are very aggressive too ... -
Up to 2019 Fuji was superb quality and value I used to eat at Fuji 3 times a week for more than 20 years , however it changed hands from a Japanese holding and management company in Thailand to a wholly Thai management company run only by Thais. Overnight the prices rose 15% the portions and meat and fish quality declined ... I have not eaten there for last 5 years ,last month was taken to Fuji by a friend , many of my favourites were no longer on the menus , and what I was served up was very poor fare ... wont be going again .

I'm confused - Using a Visa Agent
liddelljohn replied to Ken Kenobi's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
problem is doing a Visa based on Marrige is much more bureaucratic than doing retirement ,, The Immigration staff hate doing marriage based visa and make it a big run around with visits to house etc etc -

My House was Soi khaotalo and having worked in dangerous places all over the world i am always on alert ,, ironicly both times i have been attacked and stabbed were in my home town in England in 1974 and 1993 , both events ended badly for the perps ,, you can have trouble anywhere , But i have always realised Thailand is not as safe as the myths would have .

Thailand has always been dangerous , i was attacked in Soi Khaotalo by robbers in 2002 , unfortunately for them I has been shopping and had a hammer , several thais also came to my aid , by the time the BIB arrived the 2 scumbags needed urgent hospital treatment after which they got 6 years each in Monkey house . Another time in 2009 I was at a petrol station the esso near pattaya Tai on Sukumvit after picking my then 9 year old daughter up from Thaewanko when 4 teenage <deleted>bags on scooters stormed in knocked me off my scooter , grabbed my wallet and phone and were hitting the 2 girl attendants to steal the cash ,, but my little daughter was already a blackbelt and using he motorcycle helmet as a club bashed and knocked out 2 of the robbers , i got up and put another in a choke hold , the 4th ran off and then the cops arrived .. All 4 ended up getting 10 years , we were present in court and the cops made it known in the jail that a 9 year old girl had knocked 2 of the <deleted> out so big loss of face for them ha ha I have also been attempted robbery at knifepoint in my house in Soi Khaotalo back in 2016 did not end well for the robber ,, . But attacking an elderly 80 year old is a new low.. I hope the cops catch and punish them hard . other wise they will grow .

The initial impact was at an altitude that no birds can fly ,, so no bird strike ,, the initial report of reserve oxygen tank near cockpit exploding also incorrect as explosion /impact in aft of aircraft , so most likely a missile or gunfire or bomb ??? Russia has previous for shooting down innocent airliners such as MH17 in 2014, UH72 in 2020 Siberian Air 1812 in 2001,,, Polish presedential flight is another and there are a few more , by Russia and its proxy friends

US Warplane Brought Down in Red Sea Amid “Friendly Fire” Incident
liddelljohn replied to Social Media's topic in World News
The USA lost the Vietnam war totally , But it was warned by the British in 1964 when the Americans asked the British to help , that it was unwinable and that A friendly Ho chi Minh even though a communist, was better than defending a failed fascist colonial South Vietnam where 90% of the population were Viet cong supporters . THe North Vietnamese were fiercely independent and Anti Russia and China and would have been a good bulwark or USA and saved Laos and Cambodia from the horrors too. But the USA were too paranoid and stupid and led by greed to see that the British were correct in their assessment .So 12 years of war resulted in Millions of deaths , huge costs and devastation of Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos . Today Laos and Cambodia are controlled by China while Vietnam is a friendly prosperous country and staunchly anti China ... But the Americans learned nothing .. The military industrial complex however did very well out of the disaster at the cost of 65,000 Americans who were expendable pawns . , In Iraq USA and alliance won most of the battles but still lost the war due to poor planning and strategy, Same in Afghanistan for Nato and USA . But the profits still roll in for the big military industrial complex ....and the same blunders continue .... -
