She's definitely a keeper - what a muppet though, feel sorry T-Bone

@Elvis Presley you are a man after my own heart! The only problem is my home town is a small boat journey from the Isle of man so I would tag onto your post remove all boats from the Isle of man and have scheduled ferry crossings to bring the new residents and some fish head soup so they don't starve.

I would certainly agree with you on that one @MalcolmB the very first I came to Thailand I would be lying if I said I didn't sample the local wares in more ways than one! Obviously there is a lot more to the country than that.

No not all I moved back here to have intelligent conversations like this on Thai xpat sites

Now there's the reason I emigrated to Thailand hahahaha

The UK has a lot to learn from Trump. Putting the illegals in Guantanamo bay absolute genius you are my hero Mr Trump 🤣 One illegal migrant going to the US to the other, not sure there is much point in going to America they put you in torture camps when you arrive, immigration crisis resolved. One illegal migrant going to the UK to the other, quick paddle faster our dinner will be getting cold in the Marriott

And do Thailand help us out with social welfare, housing, medical or handouts? Most migrants to Thailand are of benefit to the country. We better start building new 5* hotels and housing for the UK influx of migrants (and their families) we wouldn't like them sleeping in the cold or anything.

I hope so

Now this is one of my favourite news reports for a while and a long time coming. As some people would think I am not as right wing as my Avatar photo may suggest. I am all for : As long as its not rammed down peoples throats. Unfortunately the UK is not a strong country like it used to be, we have no national pride, no national sense of protection, we are scared of speaking out about anything that might offend someone who is Blacklisted, a Black-sheep, or black, none of those are offensive words and should be Whitelisted (Damn did I say white, off to the clink for me) Last night of the Proms will be blacklisted and cancelled soon, singing land of hope and glory will be considered racial incitement, singing Rule Britannia will be a minimum of 5 years with no parole and if anyone dares sing the national anthem that is life in prison however most people will be safe as only 1 in 20 people living in the UK were born there (OK dodgy stats but we are not far off :)) You think Thailand would put up with the same. Trumps making a stand and as much as people might disagree with him or my point of view, a country needs a leader that cares about the country. EDITED: Researched it I wasn't far off 1 in 5 (probably more after 2022 since the Dinghy's started swarming) As of the 2021/22 Census, approximately 16% of the United Kingdom's population was born outside the UK, meaning that around 84% were UK-born. migrationobservatory.ox.ac.uk (And they are the documented immigrants not the 1 in 12 reported the other day that are illegal)

Much appreciated do I get a badge for that?

@hotchilli is on a roll also nearly 60k posts today, is there just an issue with the AN stats or are you guys really making that many posts, making me feel better on my forum addiction 😂

Hello team sort of related to the topic I started, I thought I was getting addicted to the forums with the amount of posts I have made this week hence the topic so checked the stats, and I am on rookie figures 🙂 @Jingthing how is it even possible to make 130,890 posts in a week, have you automated AN? 🙂 Averages out to about approximately 4.6 posts per second, their servers must be going haywire 🤣

I woke up a couple of nights ago speaking Thai in my sleep my misses didn't even have a clue what I was going on about, that's how good at Thai I am!

Hey the Brits haven't done much wrong today for a change lay off hahahaha

He will do when they shoot his dogs

Posters are correct 21H2 will be end of service but I have managed to install 23H2 this time last year on Windows Home, might try an upgrade myself to the latest. I don't think you will need to worry about Windows 11 being end of service for a while!

Yeah I think I mentioned this one in a previous post I did have medical insurance when I first came many years ago but had a serious medical condition since which precludes me from getting any half decent insurance possibly accidents and stuff like that but other things very difficult.

Thanks again everyone some top advice to consume here especially around the medical side of things which is probably one of my main worries and probably the most difficult one to budget for.

I got my proof of address from the Immigration Office in Udon Thani going in with the misses even though I was on a tourist visa back then but that was many years ago not sure if things might have changed these days I recall I think she showed them her yellow book or something and they were cool to issue it I didn't have a condo in those days.

Very Amoozing, whats his name? Got a feeling this topic is gonna get milked

Yeah that's the reality, Smog, Ferrel animals, expensive drinks even more expensive women, corruption, over-tourism, Motorbike and Jet-ski scams, dangerous roads, dual pricing, political instability, airport queuing etc. other ideas anyone? I need some of those happy pills

No more happy pills for a couple of days @Elvis Presley

She would be welcome in the UK happens all the time.

I think she was knobbing Justin Bieber at one point the name rings a bell.

Another WOKE getting involved in politics when they shouldn't what is the spoiled brat crying for America has made her rich can't have it both ways you spoiled little girl.
