  1. Modern history would tell you that eastern Ukraine is largely Russian speaking, and has suffered many atrocities at the hands of the government in Kyev.
  2. Extraordinary posting. Ignoring your juvenile invective and concentrating on reality there is no way you can be so certain that this is going to end badly. The Russia/Ukraine war is bad already, with thousands of military and civilians dead and dying. Talks are essential if this is to be stopped. Re Taiwan, there is no way the current US government will stop giving support to the Taiwan cause. Having lived and worked in Taiwan for many years I can assure you that Taiwanese worry most when Dems hold power in Washington.
  3. Hundreds of white farmers have been murdered with no mention in the mainstream media.
  4. Love them or loathe them, voters have given them a huge majority. Starmer and co will be in power for 4 years plus.
  5. I would like to see jail time for the pickup driver.
  6. Good for you if you can have fun for that kind of money.
  7. Seriously ?
  8. Not a big issue unless you attend circuit sessions.
  9. You won't get many enjoyable female favours for 1k baht, nor would you have done going back quite quite a few years.
  10. Very upset when my local Villa (Ratchayothin, Bangkok) stopped selling cigars.
  11. My Thai wife has an older sister, a US citizen, living on Long Island NY, who is similarly addicted. She's lost 2 restaurants she once owned, spends all of her deceased ex-army husband's pension on slot machines. and is about to lose her house. She refuses any form of treatment. Family at wits' end. Sad to see.
  12. My wife runs a 1995 Volvo 850 GLE, 250,000 miles and counting. Runs like a dream and looks like new (the car that is, not my wife, although she's also in good shape).
  13. On the face of it no Buddhist precept broken. Must be more to this story.
  14. Of course. The source of all wisdom.
  15. I'm told that enormous pressure has been put upon the TRD, by wealthy, influential Thais, to leave this issue well alone.
  16. The majority of so-called English language teachers in Thailand cannot speak English. No small wonder this ranking is so low. Only the Thai nightlife workers prevent it from being even lower.
  17. Maman ? Grand-maman en Francais, ie Grandmother. Been called a lot of things in my lifetime, but that's a first.
  18. This is nonsense. I repeat, way to early to judge. Come back in a year or two. Meantime, find something else to do.
  19. Not an American, not a MAGA supporter, but I have to say this comment is ridiculous. It is far too early to judge the current Presidency. Revert in a year or two from now.
  20. Best advice to Jack/Jaques, stay home with Mummy and Daddy.
