  1. I'm not disputing the findings, particuarly from a distinguised polling company such as gallup but I'm aways reminded of this clip from probably one of the best comedies ever made
  2. And that is exactly why there needs to be competition..
  3. A few more tips. Rramp up those airmiles, credit cards (pay in full each month!) , hotels etc. Try and stick to the same group of airlines, Star Alliance, Oneworld etc. Although having said that, getting reward tickets is getting harder.
  4. Just offering an option and with more capacity on the route it might make EVA & Thai a little more competitive Yes, London > Bangkok has never been a lucrative route versus say London>New York I'm beginning to experiment flying from different airports. Stockholm > Bangkok is a lot cheaper for example even with a hoppover from London Dublin seems cheap too, not saying it's the most direct option but if the OP is looking to save a few quid, it might be an idea. I live in Watford so Gatwick isn't too far 🙂
  5. BA are supposed to be restarting their routes in Oct/Nov, so maybe you want to wait as there will be more competition - no guarantees though. There's defintely some profiteering going on. I generally fly F and fares have doubled since Covid
  6. If I was given a gun in a professional setting by an authorised armourer I doubt I would check if the gun was loaded properly 1) I assume the armourer has done their job properly 2) I have no idea what a blank bullet looks like
  7. Totally agree. If you look at any market around the world, I would guess the stats are pretty much the same. 90% local, 10% foreign. Non story!
  8. Greenville Laguna might be what you need.
  9. Poppycock and balderdash. There may be a few rogues out there but the general concensus is that climate change exists.
  10. Wow, good to know that we're much more informed and knowledgable than all those pesky scientists Thanks guys, for a minute I was worried there.
  11. This is Major James Hewitt who had a dalliance with Princess Diana. No resemblence to Charles. There, I've said it.
  12. Unfortunately necessity means that parents have to travel for work. Look at bargirls for example, do you really think they can support their kid while they are out on the game? Good grandparents will raise good kids but as someone else alluded to, there are a lot of bad or indifferent Grand-parents out there.
  13. Quire right but there should be no expectation that said person will get medical care if they become infected, although having said that, the same could be said for smokers, heavy drinkers, the obese etc...
  14. I find Thai's website one of the worst to naviagte through and they certainly make it difficult to claim award tickets.
  15. I think that's a a good point. Jumping a red is obviously illegal but I understand why they do it when you might have to wait upto 300 seconds for the light to turn green again. They need to shorten some of these wait times.
  16. That must have had one helluva tail wind
  17. My wife says (jokingly) she will kill me if I ever cheat - I think I'm beginning to believe her :)
  18. I've finally persuaded the missus to take driving lessons. She has arranged with an instructor to take a one week course (not enough in my opinion). I asked her if the instructor is insured if my wife is driving the car - seems not and I have to pay around 5000b for the additional insurance. Is this the norm ? Surely as a driving instructor she should have automatic insurance for her pupils ?
  19. Chelseafan replied to still kicking's topic in Pattaya
    Exactly. That 200 baht fine should really hurt them in the wallet...
  20. Yes, the nurse screwed up and if the child had died or suffered some lifeterm disalibilty I might be more inclined to agree with you in this particular case what benefit is it to anyone to dismiss her ? This wasn't deliberate, it was human error and IMHO a severe reprimand with additional training would be a better solution. Medical malpratice happens all the time - are we going to sack every single practioner for every mistake they make ? I agree a large compensation package should be negociated - Fines tend to focus the minds of those in charge to improve conditions and safety standards
  21. The nurse should be fired ? Wow. Glad we're all perfect otherwise we'd all be out of a job. Mistakes happen.
  22. "He urged venue operators to ensure that patrons don’t use fake ID cards or those belong to their older peers to stealthily enter nightclubs" In the land of fakes, spotting a fake ID card might be somewhat challenging. What are the bar owners supposed to do ? Any ideas Anutin ? No ?
