  1. Yep, they've rewritten history to match their new power play. But I was there in the 1970s and I remember all the ice age predictions.
  2. I remember in the 1970s and they were predicting an ice age. Hard to reconcile the numbers predicting an ice age, are the same as the numbers predicting overheating. So I'm guessing Zeke Hausftaher is a liar and you're spreading misinformation.
  3. And your personal home and transport consumption? I'm betting electricity 3,000bht+ and you're driving a Fortuna (or other gas guzzler). Climate change alarmists are always hypocrites! And always want someone else to pay for their beliefs.
  4. I'm not sure global warming 1. is caused by human activity 2. is undesirable. 3. can be changed by human activity If I were the government, I'd prefer to spend money on housing the homeless than paying billions to carbon traders. Anyway IPCC doesn't seem to think sea level rises are a significant risk. I'm hoping Natwest/Coutts aren't going to cancel my bank account for this post. I don't really believe in insurance either, beyond government regulations. I have minimum insurance on vehicles, no house insurance (beyond mortgage requirement), no health insurance. As for drinking, first wine cooler of the day already half finished. By the way I live in a home mainly powered by solar cells (PEA bill usually around 200bht), and drive a Honda Click 160i (53Km/ltr) which I'm guessing is far beyond any conservation you do.
  5. I'd buy a beach house if they were cheaper. Risk of flooding doesn't seem to worry Bill Gates or Barak Obama, and they probably have better information than us.
  6. So don't build or live in flood areas, fire areas, and don't buy insurance. This is common sense. PS. IPCC report AR6 dated 2022 states there is only a moderate risk (1 in 4) of coastal flooding in the next 77 years.
  7. No banking on your phone then. The world is moving to phone banking.
  8. No retirement VISA in Vietnam, you either have to work there or marry a local. Da Nang beach is really nice for swimming though. But if you want the full 'single guy' experience, Saigon is the place to be and you need to take the ferry to Vung Tau for the swimming.
  9. I blame the women who teach their kids to hate their father. This is a vile practice pursued by many vicious divorced western women, and financially rewarded by the authorities.
  10. Apart from not watching sport on TV I pretty much followed that life.
  11. Aren't we all programmed by our parents, society and books as we grow up?
  12. I always assume they are pushed, and it's easier for the police to say they fell. Any foreigners that survive the fall are probably too embarrassed to admit to ladyboys in their room. Lets face it, no authorities in Thailand really care why foreigners die or are injured while here.
  13. What's really shocking is a bank keeping a file this detailed (and opinionated) on a customer.
  14. Fear your food! I drink raw milk (and have for the past 50 years) and haven't caught TB yet. I'm guessing it isn't a problem unless you're chronically sick.
  15. Off topic, The latest IPCC (AR6) report states there is only a 1 in 4 chance of moderate sea level rises in the next 77 years and no chance of coastal flooding beyond natural variability (I've linked to a summary as the IPCC website is a nightmare to navigate). https://rogerpielkejr.substack.com/p/what-the-ipcc-actually-says-about?r=232v88&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=email&fbclid=IwAR0U9-0CQSU9ZW02XQZpkJ2z-THrRe5YzX1bYMur0KswsXM4zIuQJNE685o
  16. In Chiang Mai the Thai Danish dairy sell raw milk at 130bht/5Kg in a plastic bag.
  17. liked the bit where he was called a 'Climate denier', all such people should have their bank accounts cancelled.
  18. Can you foam it in an expresso machine? If not it's made from powder. Never seen any coffee shop using Dutch Mill or Foremost because it doesn't foam.
  19. I've seen lots of milk labelled 'made from real milk', which means made from powder that was once milk. Much of the milk on sale in Thailand is made from milk power, Foremost and Dutch Mill being two examples. Meiji appears to be fresh milk.
  20. Mason jar - goes brown in 3-5 months. Vacuum wrap in fridge - still green after 7 months.
  21. I like it being warm all the time, the UK was always wet and cold.
  22. Doest work on my phone. Video silent in thread. Click watch now and I get taken to a different video.
