    For many years Thammasat has been the source of radical thinking in Thailand, and many of it's students have paid the ultimate price without ever achieving change, up to now...

    I sense he is over-estimating the power of his wealth and may well find himself back in exile yet again. The ruling establishment don't take kindly to people like him.

    I would add if Dave's wife had kept her mouth shut he would be in better shape. She antagonised Tarndao to the extent that there are now 2 Thai women at each other's throats which, as many of us know, is not a pretty sight. Having said that, Dave's action was that of a thug and he deserves all the trouble he is now in.

    Hearing distant air raid sirens from my grandparents home in Sutton Coldfield. They musf have been precautionary only, as raids over Coventry had long ceased. Queuing with my mother to buy groceries with coupons, late 1940s, Wimbledon, SW London. Randolph Turpin beating Sugar Ray Robinson to win the world middleweight championship.

    Bookmakers around the world now offering odds-on for a Trump victory on November 5. Punters can, however, place a bet on the likely size of his majority.

    There has been a nude beach at Brighton for many years, to the west of the main beaches.

    Stop being sheep ? Ridiculous comment. Get to CW earlier. Last 90 day I was no.16 and out by 0915hrs. Equally easy for my annual extension, last time out by 1115hrs. Never ever had any hassle since first arriving in Thailand in 1962.

    Good for her for not being a parsimonious, grovelling do-gooder.

    Lighten up.

    Nothing unusual happened on any flight I was on. Smokers smoked in the smoking section, non- smokers didn't smoke in the non- smoking section. Live and let live in those days. Not any more.

    I seem to remember there used to be a smoking section on many flights. Maybe should be reintroduced, for vapers ?

    Kindly explain.

    As a foreigner it seemed to me that things were more peaceful world-wide during Trump's presidency.

    Abysmal behaviour by the German. Just throw him out, hopefully never to return.

    ....and he hates Brits.

    It's hotter than usual for this time of year, but not unpleasant.However, for those who feel uncomfortable, obviously better to limit outdoor activity to esrly mornings and late afternoons.

    I hope you're joking...

    Calm down ! Wishful thinking. Never going to happen.

    Thanks for ruining my breakfast.

    He is both the target of a colleague who sees him as a rival, and of the establishment who se him as a threat to their income stream.

    The original cheap charlie.

    The RTP continue to arrest sex workers. Hopefully, one day, they will focus on murder, theft and violence.

    During his tenure as PM Thaksin ordered the killing of over two thousand suspected drug dealers many of whom turned out to be innocent. It was a shameful and utter disgrace, which should have been punished under both Thai and international law.

    Very sad to see what is happening to Sweden, a fine country I got to know well in the 1970s. They should have kept a much tighter control over immigration.
