  1. had 2 wine coolers with breakfast this morning.
  2. Sex plays almost ZERO part in the life of most western men aged over 40. Unless you're gay or are happy to do it alone. Look at Huw ...... earning 400kGBP/year and has to trawl gay dating sites.
  3. It's a fungal infection ...... the only thing that will fix it is ........ The bad news being the fungus spores live in your underwear, shorts, towels, bed linen, so once you have it, it's forever, and the cream costs around 80bht for a tube that will last a month.
  4. Life doesn't have to be that long........
  5. You're wrong, the worse they behave the better our exchange rate. 45.3bht to the pound today ............ if this keeps on, it'll be 50!
  6. Why are the outgoing government still making decisions 3 months after being voted put?
  7. Maybe in the west, but I bet they're well outnumbered by young 3rd world people, S. America, Mexico, Philippines, etc.
  8. Same for me, I sleep with the windows and doors open and a fan blowing the mozzies away.
  9. Torrential rain most of the afternoon in MaeJo yesterday.
  10. I retired in the UK at age 45, moved to Thailand age 52. Are you confusing retirement age with state pension age?
  11. I don't understand people that want to live as sick and disabled in their old age. Just die with dignity. As for immigration requirements, they've been the same for at least the past 20 years. 400k + Thai wife, or 800k + single.
  12. Why are they always chasing young boys though? It seems to be a problem unique to the BBC.
  13. From your BBC link ........... "The life span of humans – opposed to life expectancy, which is a statistical construct – hasn’t really changed much at all – Walter Scheidel" it's not enough to find a link, you nee to read and understand it. Anyway, you've identified yourself now!
  14. I think you need to o a google search on some definitions.
  15. Have you confused lifespan with life expectancy? They aren't the same thing!
  16. The lifespan of humans has always been around 70 years for the past 5,000 years. Socrates was 71 when he was ordered to kill himself (399BC).
  17. I'd be more concerned that someone professing to be a devout Christian married 'heterosexual' BBC presenter was using gay dating sites.
  18. ..... or the Baht exchange rate becomes 80bht to 1 gbp.
  19. Would say the complete opposite. Your home country is where you build up your savings and pension as a young person. Thailand is the place to come and spend it, hopefully in a nice house with a younger wife. If you aren't fully funded for the rest of your life, you shouldn't be here IMHO.
  20. Nobody is forcing him to have medical treatment.
  21. I didn't enjoy living in the UK in my 40s ....... why would I enjoy it in my 70s? I'm betting the old guys in Canada are living a pretty miserable existence. I could return to the UK, to live a single, cold sexless existence in a bedsit/shared house or a care home, but I'd rather be dead.
  22. It worked for NancyL and Dave2.
  23. More to do with the ages of the population (lots of old folk). Thais don't live as long as people in the west due to poor medical care (not many old folk).
  24. Samsung are way worse, my Xaomi POCO M3 always had 'dead boot' problems, but it only cost 2,500bht. my expensive Samsung Tab 10" and 7" all failed within 3 years. As did my Samsung fridge, Samsung 55" LCD, Samsung Air-con. I'll never buy another Samsung product.
