Purdey

They had been based in Hong Kong, so I guess more shopping and modernity. They didn't know I love taking pictures of temples.

I remember when I was planning to visit Bangkok, I met a couple of British soldiers who had visited. They told me not to bother as it was boring "just" temples and prostitutes. Don't just get opinions from one source only.

How to write a bad review? "Didn't like the food"; "The room wasn't as clean as most international visitors are used to." It is only when you become vindictive that you might leave yourself open to defamation charges.

Again the Thai government puts tourism ahead of modern manufacturing and services. What happened to Thailand 4.0? What happened to education? This dependence on tourism will lead to more concrete, fewer clean beaches and degradation of the environment over time. It is so frustrating to only read about tourism as the key source of income.

Sad. One too many blows to the head.

Compromise. The wife seems to want her kid to be successful. You want your kid to take a rest. Agree with the wife that education is important but allow the kid to have a lie in now and then. Consider a family break away from home and leave behind the text books.

Hard to agree with switching from one drug (alcohol) to another (valium). An active social life would help support you. Having people around is often a way to end depression, although being depressed may make you want to be alone. Start with coffee with one friend and build on that. The thing is, so much depends on having the courage to do something, not stay home and feel bad. I took a depressed friend to meet a psychiatrist at a local hospital. One of the early questions was do you have any hobbies? No? Then find some. As others have said, exercise is a good idea. Combined with mobile phone photography as a hobby and long walks snapping photos for your Instagram or Facebook portfolio may help.

Second chance? I may have missed the result of the media shares case, the one with a 20 year prison sentence. However, one strategy would be let Anutin have a minority government, force a new election, sweep even more votes and forget the Senate.

So the FDA has no power to recall this from shelves and ban is distribution?

I had assumed that a caretaker government should not sign international deals. I was wrong.

Just a few days ago I read about a diabetes drug that helps weight loss (even metformin does to some extent). Wegovy: FDA approves obesity drug to help people keep pounds off | CNN "Semaglutide can help people lose up to 12% of their body weight over about a year and a half". Sounds good, but will it lead to people forgetting about diet and exercise? I have read, and perhaps an American member can confirm or not, that even bread has sugar in it in the U.S. It is the need for sweet food, which may be yummy, but is almost poisoning people.

Biden appears popular with many Democratic nations. Unlike some.

Not sure if you understand that: 1. President Biden is not the father of this child. If your daughter in law does something bad are you responsible? 2. His son is not a staff member of the White House so uninvolved in politics, even though desperate people are trying to link them 3. The word Monster appears in the headline but not in the story so it is obviously a slur intending to say the father is responsible for a son over the age of 21.

The MF leaders are naive and fall into traps like lemmings. If i hear one more quote saying how confident someone is that nothing will happen I will have to admit Move Forward is not the party Thailand needs, just the one it wants.

I guess stopping the police from rounding them up now and then is a good idea but i guess the respected RTP will find another way to shake them down

Good on him.

Seems like the president has been ignoring this grandchild since before the presidency. I fail to see what this has to do with being president as it is a personal matter.

Saw an interview where Ritchie Blackmore joked he took Beethoven's 5th and played it backwards.

Equally so; If you use the University for your education it should be free. If you need a private tutor you should pay for it.

Well, did the British copy blues and rock from America or not?

I believe prepay makes more sense, but I like the barrier free entry. Simply deduct from the amount added to the account. Anyone passing through without an account can be arrested within a day or two.

I was think more along the lines of giving everyone an opportunity even if they are dirt poor. My university education was free as a kid and it really helped me as my parents were too poor to pay.

Admittedly, I don’t understand why a country charges so much for an education that kids are indebted their whole life. I always assumed that education was a way of giving kids a start in life, so they could later get jobs and help the economy and development of the nation. There are countries that provide free education you know, including most of Western Europe, Slovenia (foreigners can get free education) and others. Why are the military, police and fire service considered free services but not schools?

Thanks for sharing, very good photographs. What camera do you use?

Not the first guest in an interview to walk off in the wrong direction.
