Why would Thai customs do anything, cannabis is legal here.

Quick calculation, cannabis in Thailand sells for max 15kbht/kg, so 100kg in Thailand (cost £32k) becomes £1M in the UK. X30 markup!

What if he wins?

If I don't wake up at dawn to let my rabbits out into the garden they get really angry. So it's up at first light, rabbits given treats and released, then out for a 25km cycle ride (if it's dry).

I agree with most of the Labour ideas. Buy to let is an abomination that makes purchasing out of reach for normal people. Single people living in large houses should pay full council tax, their selfishness restricts people from finding housing. Holiday homes, pushes local housing prices beyond the reach of local people. One person one home maximum. And why should business owners escape paying the same NI as employees?

No need to fix any corruption, he just wants to plug the leaks.

Your wife loves you for yourself ....... the fact you also have loads of money is irrelevant!

Nope, easiest thing in the world ....... Plug kindle into pc usb port. Open calibre, right click mouse on the book you want to transfer, choose "save to main memory" Calibre will then convert to AZW format and load on kindle. I'm currently reading SF the Archimedes Engine by Peter F Hamilton, and the mystery series Alex McKnight omnibus by Steve Hamilton. Always use my Kindle as it's easy on my old eyes.

Me too, when it was 45-47 I built up a 6 month reserve.

In Siem Reap or Bangkok?

Next thing you know, visiting Pattaya will be a sacking offense. Even if you only came to see the beaches and temples!

Not really, I just don't find the locals interesting. But as you say, no worries, not long now ...............

Normal western LTR IMHO.

The AIS net marathon 1 year SIMs tend to self renew if you have enough credit in your account. 1,600bht (ish), taken the day your last year expires. Strangely enough I have the same deal, from AIS, also started in October 2022. Think I'll dump AIS this October as the data has become very iffy for phone banking. DTaC Turbo100 next time.

Of topic, We both chose Chiang Mai to live out of all the places on the earth, so can we really be that different?

If the first trivial case was before vaccination, and the second serious case was after vaccination, I'd be tempted to come to a different conclusion.

Sorry we're dragging off topic, I'm retired no bosses, my internet is blazingly fast, and the rest doesn't bother me. If she cheats, you can cheat too.

I thought that too, foreign guys, Thai bar girls. They could title the movie 'f#£& f#£& in tuk tuk'

Incorrect, ........ a woman marries a man for what (she thinks) he can give her. As for the locals, never had any urge to mix with any outside my bedroom. I only mix with fellow Brits from the South of England

Or you could just disregard it as irrelevant.

If you have enough food to eat and a place to live then happiness becomes a choice for you to make for yourself. It's not really a loser/winner situation.

I used to work for Waheed Alli (minor contractor for Planet 24) in the days when he financed New Labour and Tony Blair. Great guy, very generous with free drinks, even used to greet me by name (even though I was a nobody). Can't see any reason why he shouldn't get a security pass, after all, he's financed the Labour party for the past 30 years.

Being president of the USA for 4 years and a billionaire doesn't exactly fit with my idea of a loser.

So you spend your life doing what other people want ...... OK, your life, your choice, but that's not for me, especially if I'm the one financing it all. My life is all about me ..... me, me, me, me, me! Same as the girl featured in the OP.
