Have to wait for divorce before judging how well he did!

If it was in the UK, they'd be preparing a 5* hotel room for him and giving him a bit of spending money.

Did you miss 'billionaire's daughter'?

Can't say I eat Thai food either.

According to me any cannabis sold in Thailand is unlikely to be what is claimed. Unless they are claiming it's Lao brick.

I've always made my own rules for everything! And as far as I'm concerned, a man who doesn't take what he's owed isn't a man.

I paid 20% of my income to buy my state pension and NHS entitlement. As far as I'm concerned I'm entitled to any pension payments other pensioners get, no matter where I live. Maybe you should spend more time worrying about Tony Blair's sudden millions and David Cameron's offshore accounts, these guys are crooks, I'm just claiming what I paid for..

I paid more taxes than most of them.

Potential dangers, More worried about the danger of dying on Thai islands than being mugged in PI. Beggers, The occasional kid or granny outside 7-11 or walking in the road. Generally much less begging than from the Rose ladies walking in Thai bars or tuk-tuk drivers in Thailand. Food, Every meal was great, although I mostly ate at Mexican, German or Oz/Brit restaurants. Did have Pork Adobo at a local street restaurant, which was perfectly acceptable. Alcoholic drinks, A fraction of Thai prices. Beaches, Much nicer than any Thai beaches I've ever visited. About 8 trips in the pre-COVID 4 years. Zero problems with anyone. Here's the Pork Adobo, Essentially pork and potato stew served with rice.

Been there lots of times, walked through the Barrios after midnight in Manilla, never a problem of any kind. Everyone very polite, they actually seem to like foreigners (unlike Thais). Saying that as a large white male.

Do you always drink a $10,000 bottle of wine, or is a $10-$20 bottle sometimes good enough? Back to the OP, If someone goes to an emergency room with a cut finger or stubbed toe, but admits to regular cannabis use, is that counted as a cannabis related emergency treatment?

Why would you tell any government agency where you were or what you were doing? You got yourself no 250 pound winter fuel allowance, no 10% pension rise and no NHS treatment, pointless!

I use the last UK address I lived at, I don't know the people that currently live there and nobody ever checked.

4bht/gm doesn't seem expensive to me. My kids get 50bht per school day, they can easily afford cannabis. As for hospital admissions, I'd be more interested in the actual numbers of people admitted with serious problems, doubt there's be 10.

Isn't this a Chinese problem?

It's usually ladies accelerating when they intend to brake. Although I did see a Chinese couple rent a m/c and drive straight across the road, hit the kerb and flip themselves into the moat. It's not always drunks causing accidents!

You're wrong! My pal toppled his m/c over in his driveway and broke his hip. 3rd party insurance paid his 40k(?) government hospital bill.

The law in Thailand says if you want sex with a 13 year old, you have to marry her.

Sounds to me you're just a bad loser. The people voted and your side lost, I call this democracy. Brexit happened, get over it.

.... or for how long.

Not legally unless they are married to them!

Cameron was trying to save the Tory party from the Nigel Farage white supremacist movement. It gave the Conservatives another 8 years in power. But it was the UK voting population that voted for Brexit, not any political party, not any MPs. The MPs and political parties all wanted to stay and take their turns at the gigantic feeding trough which is the EU.

Wot, cheaper than 400bht for 100gm?

It was the British voters that voted to leave the EU, not Tory MPs.

The only MP that supported Brexit was the Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn. None of the Tories ever wanted to leave. And the current Labour leader has firmly stated Labour have no intention to rejoin.
