  1. Yeah, that photo must be at least 20 years out of date.
  2. So buying USD with your Thai baht would give you a 5% exchange advantage, and you're still complaining. You should be thanking Trump!
  3. We know that, but the Muslim doing the assaulting may not. Most of the world has different expectations to the west. In Qatar/India/Pakistan, almost any unaccompanied woman would be considered 'fair game'.
  4. Bangkok bank cards are TPN (Thai Payment Network) cards processed locally in Thailand (by a Chinese company), not real Mastercard Or VISA cards, which is why they don't work for many websites. They work great in China though!
  5. So where does the comparison with Thai baht enter the equation? It would be a Oz dollar to US dollar currency change. And the US dollar tanking would be to the OPs advantage. Of course this thread has no basis in reality as the OP is a Trump hater and nothing more.
  6. 10% loss in one year (Oz) Vs 5% loss in one year (US). You leftie government currency seems worse off IMHO.
  7. OP is Australian, why would he have US dollars?
  8. Factually incorrect, A primitive arrowhead wouldn't be able to penetrate a whalebone corset, let alone come out the other side.
  9. Damn those US tariffs, they've cost me 1 bht off my pound as well. Let's see a chart of the Aussie dollar during that same time period ....... bet the tariffs hit them too.
  10. If I turn up on the Sussex coast in a dinghy with no documentation, will I be given one? Will I get a UK bank account as well, 'cos as an expat it's almost impossible. (I'm assuming the boat arrivals get bank accounts to pay their benefits into, but I may be wrong) Just wondering ............
  11. Sounds like the parent company are distancing themselves from potential losses and liability. On the other hand, had my NETA for 2 months and it's great.
  12. "The young victim's state of shock served as a clear signal of non-consent, resulting in the man's conviction. Although given a suspended sentence of one and a half years, he avoided jail time due to pre-trial custody." So he got away with it, despite admitting to a serious crime on an under age girl.
  13. Not gay but wearing pink tights .......... OK ...........
  14. Sadly anyone from the UK where every bank will de-bank you on the slightest whim.
  15. Here you go .......... https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/2/15/thousands-take-part-in-london-rally-against-donald-trumps-gaza-plan
  16. I despise Trump, not suitable for the job of president, too old, too dishonest ......... But slightly more suitable than Hillary or Kamala.
  17. Just wondering, Trump haters, Putin haters, leftie wokes are normally pro Hamas.
  18. Are you also pro Hamas? Just wondering.
  19. A dog makes a good companion, women not so much.
  20. Try a ladyboy bar .......... it's even worse.
  21. Are you not allowed a Thai bank account if you don't live in Thailand? What about all the Chinese businessmen running factories in Thailand, but not living here full time, are their accounts to be frozen? And the Burmese/Laos/Cambodians working in Thailand that have no passports and no VISAs, their accounts all frozen as well?
