  1. I suggest he breeds with the same breed of dog as he is as there are enough cross bred mongrels in the world already!
  2. And first prize goes to you for posting the most pointless post in recent times!
  3. Name the positives in any religion!
  4. A war is a war! From The Oxford English Dictionary; war n noun a state of armed conflict between different countries or different groups within a country. a state of competition, conflict, or hostility:
  5. They were not "welcomed", they were imposed on the country!
  6. It's definitely NOT exciting to see Thailand embracing the potential of the cannabis industry and paving the way for legal cannabis consumption in Asia. The cr@p should go back on the banned list and let people live their lives free of this abominable scourge on society!
  7. What is an "IDT arrivals"?
  8. There have been endless wars since at least the end of WW11! The following conflicts overlapped each other, leaving no days where the entire world was at peace. 1942-1954, Hukbalahap Rebellion 1944-1947, Jewish Insurgency in Palestine 1942-1949, Ukrainian Insurgency 1944-1956, Guerilla war in the Baltic States 1948-1960, Malayan Emergency 1955-1975, Vietnam War 1960-1996, Guatemalan Civil War 1991-2002, Sierra Leone Civil War 2001-present, War in Afghanistan See also the following; List of ongoing armed conflicts - Wikipedia All wars in the 20th century, since 1900 | the Polynational War Memorial (war-memorial.net) war - Have there been only 26 days of peace since 1945? - Skeptics Stack Exchange
  9. You seem to be comparing apples (minutes) and oranges (km's)! What is the cost for the same distance or the same time?
  10. What does WTTFF mean? Please don't say go see Mr Google as he has no idea!
  11. Just goes to show that you would consider yourself to be perfect if you were not so modest!
  12. They are not building a canal ala "Panama Canal" they are building roads etc! From the OP; "Thailand is looking for investment to build a “land bridge” across the narrow southern part of the country. The Southeast Asian nation hopes to provide a shorter path for cargo between the Pacific and Indian oceans without having to go through the Malacca Strait and Singapore. Under the plan, cargo would travel by highway and railroad from the area of Chumpon on the Gulf of Thailand to Ranong on the Indian Ocean to be loaded onto waiting ships."
  13. My apologies regarding midnight v 11PM alcohol sales. Just checked my local 7/11 and you are correct it is allowed until midnight!
  14. Is the moon so bright and strong in Pattaya that you need an umbrella after 6PM?
  15. It's always good fun reading posts from the old farts who were stupid enough to park money in Thailand when a mere 13,000 baht gets my legal ILEGAL extension done for me. Ahahaaaa
  16. Nor does your pointless post! Why did you make the above post if you are not interested in the subject?
  17. They do NOT sell to midnight legally! Their tilling system does not allow them to sell out-with the legal alcohol selling hours; 11AM-2PM & 5PM-11PM!
  18. And those who will not understand and accept the true facts!
  19. I am confused! Most 7/11's are open 24/day! Since this is a forum discussing alcohol sales I assume you are talking about the legal selling hours 11AM-2PM =3Hrs 5PM-11PM=6Hrs 6+3=9Hrs! The change in hours would only be a change/increase in revenues to the 7/11's and supermarkets at the expense of the local "Mom & Pop" shops! I would rather support my local "Mom & Pop" than 7/11's or supermarkets!
  20. I have used either my lawyer or an agent to organise my totally legal visas for over 20 years up here in CM. At one time you had to either arrive at the IO (Prom) before 5AM or hire a seat sitter and you might get finished by 3/4 PM if they did not find some "missing paper". I believe it has improved now that they have moved back to the main IO but I still have better use of my time etc! Sorry but I currently pay 7500baht/year (which includes 90 day reports) to only spend 5 minutes (max) in the CM IO getting my Photo taken and passport back! Money bloody well spent IMO, even as a Scotsman! I can spend all that otherwise wasted time and worry in the bar not worrying!
  21. I am sorry @Crossy but I think you were wrong about over fishing and omitted the following interesting info! Wild haggis "Haggis Scoticus" the wild haggis's left and right legs are of different lengths, allowing it to run quickly around the steep mountains and hillsides which make up its natural habitat, but only in one direction. There are two varieties of haggis, one with longer left legs and the other with longer right legs. The former variety can run clockwise around a mountain while the latter can run anticlockwise. The two varieties coexist peacefully but from either the Western Isles and west coast (Clockies) or from the dour East Coast (Antis) are unable to interbreed in the wild because in order for the male of one variety to mate with a female of the other, he must turn to face in the same direction as his intended mate, causing him to lose his balance before he can mount her. It also makes one right/left leg tougher than the other depending on whether you are Clockie or an Anti!
