  1. Have you ever been inside a working slaughterhouse ?
  2. Never really bothers me how much I pay for a lady drink, unkess it's totally outrageous. A few hundred baht here or there is hardly worth worrying about unless you are in poor financial circumstances, in which case you shouldn't be in bars anyway.
  3. Appalling behaviour, but he should know it was unwise to stop, especially with youngsters on board.
  4. The numbers for east Asia don't make sense. Also, what has projected Ireland into being the third richest country in the world ?
  5. The perception in the USA and Europe is that the TAT favours Russians, Indians and Chinese, and that Westerners are no longer welcome in Thailand.
  6. A non-even about which the media has gone berserk. Residency is not citizenship and is no big deal. Harry is a UK citizen and will most likely remain so.
  7. Not a huge issue. So much fuss about a difference of 200 baht which likey could have been negotiated down to 100 baht or so. No idea why the Thai woman was so aggressive, and why her foreign boyfriend didn't calm her down.
  8. Not just in Thailand.
  9. Many of us are already involved. Check your facts.
  10. Thais appear to have become addicted to cutting down trees. Bangkok is an example of this. 40 plus years ago an American consultancy recommended filling in klongs to make way for more road space. This resulted in the trees which lined the klongs being removed. This trend is now repeated all over the country. Concrete rules, sadly.
  11. Amazing, given that Thais claim to be Buddhists, that they eat animals, birds and seafood.
  12. Any thoughts on who will win come November 5, Biden or Trump ? Bookmakers generally offering odds-on for a Trump win.
  13. Once they are in the USA many of them will simply disappear.
  14. As an non-American observer, who is definitely not a fan of Donald Trump, I wonder if any of you guys are worried at what appears to be a connived effort by the US justice system to prevent him from standing for election on November 5 ?
  15. The parolee and his puppet pictured together. So touching...
  16. She was betrayed by the idiot who heads the Bank of England. He panicked when she proposed lowering taxes to promote growth. Hacks at the IMF connived with him, and she was gone.
