  1. I've never found the need for porn in Thailand, available women are everywhere. But books, TV shows, movies and forums are amazing.
  2. I like the weather (warm) and the empty country roads (cycling). Not to mention the fast internet (entertainment).
  3. Just cancelled my subscription, I only wanted the UK landline number, which will no longer be available.
  4. Didn't affect me, but my Brit kids will inherit nothing.
  5. Let me put you off lunch, roast pork, baked potato and mushrooms in Tesco onion gravy.
  6. You forgot, Divorce laws stripping assets from the nuclear family, and awarding it to women who only spend.
  7. Yeast makes the bread rise but needs sugar to feed the yeast. If you add the right amount of sugar you end up with none after the yeast has fed. If you add no sugar the yeast starves and the bread doesn't rise properly.
  8. 1. Run your aircon at full blast between mid-day and end of solar production to cool the house when it's free power. or 2. Add grid-tie inverters to wind the meter back after your batteries are full. I do No. 2, added a couple of new panels and a 1000w grid-tie inverter.
  9. If short term trading worked we would all be doing it. But sadly, it's just another form of gambling.
  10. That's as far back as most of us can remember (as working adults in the UK). Back then I could afford a house in the UK but almost no luxury items. Now I can afford many luxury items but not a house in the UK.
  11. I didn't suggest they were either workshy or their living quarters were driving house prices up, that was all you.
  12. Two points, 1. This equipment is really easy to use, took me around 5 minutes to learn to use it with no instructions. 2. This equipment is about 10 years out of date, all done by computer now, looks into a device, watch a cartoon tractor cross the screen, and out comes a printout with your prescription on it. Just needs someone to press the start button.
  13. Housing costs seems to be a new world order problem as nearly all western countries, no matter what government, seem to be forcing house prices up, along with wanting stabby immigrants to enter.
  14. Back in the day we always ordered the promotions, so they would have needed to slip 5 or 3 extra bottles in the serving tray/table.
  15. No, I was in charge and had final say in everything.
  16. Make love not war, better public sex than a public beating. Someone having fun on a secluded beach at night is hardly a problem IMHO.
  17. If someone punches me I go down hard, until police and Ems arrive. Gives me a much better result than punching back, and risking a beating. Not to mention the chance of free drinks, food and maybe some instant cash in my pocket.
  18. The government directs news broadcasters reporting policy. I would have thought even you were bright enough to know that.
  19. You've said what you don't do, but not what you want to do. As a French speaker you should give Mauritius ot Vietnam a go, maybe Laos
  20. I don't think the Thai people give a flying one what foreigners do as long as they're making money. More likely it's the government demonising foreigners in an attempt to deflect attention from all the countries current problems. Corruption, inflation, industry in the toilet, low wages, rising unemployment, personal dept, etc.
  21. As one of those journalists, I can categorically state I never wanted to mislead anyone, but my bosses and my government insisted. Not to mention they paid me a lot of money to do it.
  22. Hardly any Thai restaurants in Thai areas where I am offer Pad Thai.
