  1. We all know that already. It is what it is. Put up with it, or go away.
  2. Far too much noise on this subject, mainly from those seeking to make money from selling their advice.
  3. The late 1960s/early 1970s. Before than it was delightful.
  4. In a short time since his return from Dubai, to which he ran away to avoid a 2 year jail sentence, he has already managed to make a host of new enemies.
  5. Never once happened to me in over 60 years.
  6. A lot of people have had enough of the Tories, understandably, but then the famous picture of Starmer and Rayner taking the knee to the BLM emerges..
  7. The PM is out of his depth. He has no idea of the games the jail runaway from Dubai is playing.
  8. If you think Anutin is as anti-expat as Thaksin you are seriously mis-informed.
  9. Still the land of smiles by comparison with most other countries, in my opinion.
  10. Best thing the Tories can do is to keep circulating the picture of Starmer and Raynor taking the knee to BLM.
  11. Cross and double-cross going on. The guy from Dubai, who ran away to avoid a two year jail sentence for bribery, is back and playing his old games. PM out of his depth.
  12. How things have changed. Went to Samui for the first time in 1980 with my wife. No bars, no roads. Rented two hammocks by the beach for 10 baht each. Paradise.
  13. Far too many people already. When I was born, in 1941, the world population was under 3 billion. It is now over 8 billion, and growing at an even faster rate. Unpleasant and unsustainable. Problem is, no one wants to talk about it, preferring endless verbage on climate change.
  14. If, I repeat if, it is true that the Brits didn't pay their bill they were asking for trouble. The bar employees will be charged for whatever amount is involved.
  15. Is it right that, if Trump is found guilty, the appeal process could go on for years ?
  16. It's now reported that the Russian was actually harassing their daughter.
  17. If the reports are correct he was defending his Thai wife. Ha might just get away with this. Stupid and less than bright, though, to have punched the Russian.
  18. A friend who was there told me the abuse directed at Trump initially faded early on, and he was being well-received by the end if his speech. This appears to have been the case after reading through the entire article.
  19. Started by Labour under Blair/Brown, made worse by the Tories. Who can turn this sad condition around ?
  20. What are the benefits of having a residency certificate ?
  21. If you run the Thai branch of a top multi-national with heavy investments in Thailand you will move in high society, otherwise not.
  22. Buddhism is a philosopy, not a religion. What we have in Thailand is ldolatry and a belief in reincarnation, hence the refusal to put animals down for fear of being punished in the next life.
