  1. While travelling the wrong way down a one way street people were shouting ”one way!” at me , to which I hollered ” I'm only going ONE way!”
  2. Better to stay silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt is the best summary of that inane comment.
  3. You win today’s Poe’s law award.
  4. So no cogent counter argument? I guess "end of" signals the low point of your economic illiteracy.
  5. So you were made to feel anonymous. How dispiriting...and racist.. 😉
  6. Have you seen the results of communism and socialism as an alternative? Capitalism has lifted hundreds of millions out of poverty . Suggest you read some basic economics to better inform your opinions...as well as the ” greengrocer's apostrophe ”.
  7. Trains are inherently costlier than air, especially over longer distances. National railways are very often subsidised too. A railway needs not only a station at each end but the expensive infrastructure and maintenance all along the journey. A plane just needs somewhere to take off and somewhere to land , nothing in-between.
  8. Korat is a pretty hot place in Thailand often with little breeze,it's going to get hotter still over next few months. Yes an inverter Aircon unit is the way to go. From experience and others recommendations start with mitsubishi brand. Daikin also is highly rated.
  9. It's the only habitable one we know of in the universe...
  10. That's a good pump but very expensive,I think cos it has an inverter. We bought the model down XS, without inverter and 350 W so nearly as powerful. It's half that price. We water the garden extensively through a few outlets and it's plenty powerful for that. Superior to Mitsubishi in my opinion and still reasonable price
  11. Had that system in my house in UK that I inherited. Eventually just found it oppressive and deafening on occasion when the idiots turn up the volume on action movie sounds effects and music such that other members of the family in other rooms complained. You're in a domestic situation not a cinema.
  12. The pretty girl with a big...”smile.?” asked me ”are you a Christian ” I said ” Man, I am Tonight!”
  13. Exactly as per the pre arranged itinerary..
  14. Stop casting aspertions...
  15. She looked great in that deep fake porn video..!
  16. What about Murray head, didn't they spend one night in Bangkok...?
  17. Yes,their ginger hair and freckles betray them..
  18. Got to be fewer of them than in the main resorts surely - no girly/gogo bars from what I remember ? How has the food deteriorated .? We found a few good Thai restaurants ,a really good burger restaurant "Ling Ouen" a decent pizza place and The Irish embassy had a great Sunday roast offering.
  19. How far into the flight were they? Wonder why they didn't? It's very expensive and disrupts hundreds of passengers. If he can be restrained and subdued continue to the destination. This sort of incident is rightly considered very serious by UK authorities and he can expect to do some time and be banned by a host of airlines. Scum.
  20. Your various comments indicate the scars run much deeper...
  21. Last 2 years we went to Phuket in march following reduced demand and lower prices following the pandemic. This year we will return to Lanta driving down over 2 Days as usual.
  22. Not really, you price according to demand and drop the price when it tails off. Normal practice
  23. The snorkeling in isaan is just as good!
  24. The BSAC limit is 50 metres and in all circles is considered very deep. You are also right on the border of oxygen toxicity. Not only would your bottom time be a not very useful 5 minutes but you would have to do extended decompression stops. Because you got away with it doesn’t make it safe
  25. I didn't read the original Wikipedia review tbh but re your comment it's not about the place of manufacture but the design and trust of the brand. Apple products are manufactured in china,as are some German prestige cars but that doesn't mean they're only built to the standards of a Chinese design. The only other aspect is that there can be little useful feedback on reliability of MG cars while most models have only been around a few years. 10 - 12 year old Toyotas and Hondas running reliably are commonplace
