Probably why Gisele Bündchen divorced Tom Brady.

This report does not mention the Netherlands. The breeding of pitbull terriers was banned in the Netherlands in 1993 and all remaining dogs were required to be sterilized. It was hoped that the breed would die out naturally but this ban was repealed in 2008 due to the vocal minority of pitbull fanciers and lobbyists. However, as a result maulings and deaths of the general public increased to such an extent that the ban was reinstated in 2018. These dogs are bred for fighting and their preferred method of attack is to go for the throat which usually proves fatal. To get round the bans, particularly in the UK, the latest designer dog derived from a pitbull is the American XL Bully which has killed more people than any other breed in the UK in last few years. The owners are often inadequate men who want to look hard, or criminals. These types of dogs have no place in civilised society.

It was reported previously that he had tried to get a new passport from the Norwegian consulate/embassy in Hanoi. Presumably this didn't work and he resorted to getting one through illicit means. I find it odd that he would travel back home through Thailand though. Surely there are enough direct flights from Vietnam to Paris, which was his first European destination before he travelled on to Oslo?

Road Rage Incident Leads to Shooting, Leaving One Injured in Bangkok
IslandLover replied to webfact's topic in Bangkok News
Perhaps the original post should be re-phrased to say "men" because let's face it, it's always the male of the species who causes these violent altercations. -
Thailand’s experiment with weed goes up in smoke
IslandLover replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
I never said it was only available in Amsterdam and Rotterdam. A lot of towns in NL have "coffee shops". Sure, it is not illegal to grow a small amount in your back yard for personal use, but try growing it in larger quantities in your garage or spare room and see what happens. One establishment near to where I live got raided recently. Police with helicopters were involved and it made the local news. The "crop" was destroyed. Shame really. -

IslandLover replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Partaking of weed is tolerated in the Netherlands and you can buy it freely from "coffee shops" in major cities like Amsterdam and Rotterdam, but try growing it yourself and you can expect a visit from the cops. ???? -
Thank you so much! ???? EDIT: Thank you again ????

OK, please could you explain how I do this then? Preferably post a screenshot. The "edit" function is no longer there on my screen (I use a PC running MS Windows, not a mobile phone, to view the forum). Yes, I know there is a 30 minute window.

Of course I have! I know how it used to work.

Is there an issue with the newsletter again?
IslandLover replied to topt's topic in Forum Support Desk
I've had one today. It arrived a few hours ago. -
I'm wondering if it has something to do with the new labels we have been given? I am now a "Rookie Member" even though I have been a member of the forum since 2014. Perhaps lower ranking persons are not allowed to edit their posts. ????

Surely we are allowed to use the 'ha-ha' emoji if we find a post actually funny/amusing? ???? ???? Now I'm trolling ????

Is there an issue with the newsletter again?
IslandLover replied to topt's topic in Forum Support Desk
I'm getting my newsletters again now but they seem to be erratic. On some days I will get two newsletters, and on others, only one. -
A question for blackcab: Has the ability to edit one's posts been removed? If so, why? There used to be an edit function after a post was made which stayed active for a short time. This seems to have disappeared.
