  1. I don't know who paid in the end.. I was eventually handed to my Banks Visa department. They told me to contact Visa International (gave me an email address), then I got my refund - but it could have been the Visa International department of my Bank - I don't know for sure - but I kept the email address !!!
  2. I wonder how make people are aware of credit card "charge backs" ? I have only used it once on an Aliexpress purchase where they sent like xxx size and clearly it was not even M ... contacted my Bank's Visa department - seems most people at the Bank did not even know what I was talking about, then sending me in a few circles - but I got my money back from Visa. I don't see why this would not work with someone like AirAsia ?
  3. "exercise caution in areas with large Arab populations due to a climate of hostility and potential danger". It is the duty of the Police to REMOVE this danger. Perhaps send them back to where they will feel less "hostility".. I wonder how Europeans would get on in Arab states if they exhibited anger and hostility.. would the leaders of Arab nations just warn fellow Arabs to be careful ?
  4. This has only made the news because it involves mostly White attractive young females.. it is not an unusual occurrence in Cambodia and I expect the same in Laos. Perhaps there needs to be more education of tourists to the dangers in these countries - but I doubt if that will change anything viz tourist motorcycle accidents in Thailand. If people really want to remain blind to the dangers of these sorts of destinations then they cannot be surprised when things do go badly wrong. There are thousands of cases of Malaria and it can be fatal. Then there is Dengue fever..
  5. Maserati driver will be speaking to Red Bull lawyers... so we can guess where this will go.. I wonder what his links are to Putin's circle ?
  6. guess it could be safer than on the roads in Thailand...
  7. The religion of peace at work again.. Just remember, Hamas = Iran as does Hezbollah = Iran... be very careful who you back...
  8. as far as I know, Thailand is not signed up to these.. time for European countries to withdraw.. they are no longer fit for their original purpose... the US could withdraw as well.. that should satisfy you ?
  9. I think this should be the first deployment of the new Chinese submarine... they can dig a big hole...
  10. UK government petty mindedness... but then, how can they make up for the money it costs to house and feed the illegal immigrants.... ?
  11. None of us choose our parents nor which country we are born into. Cycles of abuse are never hard to diagnose. One wonders what the childhood of the grandmother must have been like. And for those who say that not everyone who is abused turns out to be an abuser, that is an argument that is very easy to demolish - it only take a stroke of good fortune in a time of need for our outcomes to be completely different.... sadly for most, there is no stroke of good luck.
  12. mm... loud high frequency sound that humans cannot hear run for 48 hours pointing in the direction of the dog might be interesting. what happens to dogs when they are severely sleep deprived ?
  13. but but but.. I thought it was the Ukraine who were the den of Nazis ?
  14. I don't know if anyone can shed some light on this. I just checked the Interpol Red Notice alerts for Vorayuth Yoovidhya - nothing. I then looked for all those showing with a Thai nationality. There were about 30 of them, but his name still did not come up. "Interpol has issued a “red notice” to arrest the fugitive Thai heir to the Red Bull billions over his role in a fatal hit-and-run incident in Bangkok, police have said" from the Guardian 3 years ago.... has the Red notice been withdrawn and if so, why ? I must be missing something ????
  15. Next you will be saying that Russia has not been invaded since WW2 and Putin's "special operation" is going to plan...
