  1. is that price for real? 1000 quid strikes me as a lot when you can do 180 days 'visa exempt 'with the fly in and 2 border runs. ie 30 days each time plus extensions at 1900baht a go, gives 60 days each time x3......I know it's not for the lazy but the cost is only like £133 doing it that way, yeah ok I guess depends on location but somewhere like Chaing Mai is only 60 odd miles to the border in any case, that's a nice bike ride ????
  2. understandable though, when a load of woke eejits are telling us how to live our lives and do things like stand on yer doorstep clapping for 'c u next tuesdays' at the useless health service, doncha think? do you miss england at all?
  3. yes sounds like me, although I haven't heard that expression before.....the western world is broken with the TV and social media induced BS.. we don't need sugar and carbs.....OMAD for me.......and I might go on a long long bike ride when the weather cools a bit.... Peace out brother (or sister) monk ????
  4. very kind, I could travel around the world on that ???? ie flew to Bkk from Germany <€300 return use airbnb and agoda to get accomodation <€12 a night bus to Pattaya from the East Bus terminal - 131 baht pickin up 'loose women' Thai Friendly app (advice from an acquaintance) getting around and keeping fit, really decent Giant bike off faceache €160 not being overweight and understanding OMAD - priceless ????
  5. how do you know you won't wait months to get treatment through the NHS? source https://www.bma.org.uk/advice-and-support/nhs-delivery-and-workforce/pressures/nhs-backlog-data-analysis The latest figures for February 2023 show: around 7.22 million people waiting for treatment; nearly 3.0 million of these patients waiting over 18 weeks; around 362,500 of these patients waiting over a year for treatment – which is around 169 times the number of people waiting over a year in February 2020, before the pandemic began. a median waiting time for treatment of 14.5 weeks – nearly double the pre-Covid median wait of 7.5 weeks in February 2020.
  6. i must admit I quite like the look of that new ES model.......the EP looks like a 'grandad car' in comparison lol why are they doing 2 models that are based on the same body?
  7. errrr maybe because the cities are overcrowded? go on then, name me a Thai city that doesn't have 'traffic issues'?
  8. why don't you migrate to linux? it's free and you don't need any AV baloney (says the guy who was a 'Windows Pro' and hasn't used it for donkies years cos I realised it's just 'consumer carp') PS use ublock origin as a browser plugin and you don't even see ads on 'crappy websites' nudge nudge wink wink
  9. for real? it's bad enough driving in a city in Europe, never mind Thailand......or do you like being stuck in slow moving traffic for hours on end?? ????
  10. that strikes me as a bloody fortune when you can get a new MG 5 (which is a good looking car IMO and will drive a lot better than an SUV) for ฿585k at how many miles will the EV actually be cheaper than the MG 5? quite a lot I would have thought as the price difference is £8500 worth of petrol to begin with!!! (for the UK punters, dunno if you're a Brit lol)
  11. so is the climate agreeable south of Hua Hin? (currently in Bangkok but looking for somewhere else to 'hang out' lol)
  12. wow that is cheap! must admit never been convinced by an EV even though I have been looking for a car over here (they all seem to be overpriced garbage and/or boring auto).......how much did the thing cost in the first place though? (will tootle off to the EV thread lol)
  13. hi bill, how easy is it to get a 6 month visa? looked on their website and it only mentions the 30 day one....
  14. why are you 'vulnerable' if I may ask?
  15. eh? ps paypal are one of the worst companies in the world.....haven't used them for years and i still manage to use a computer (non microsoft) ????
  16. hi mr gecko, what do you think of the argument that the FED are raising rates NOT to control inflation but to try and save the USD? PS I honestly believe we've had hyperinflation for years but they just lie about the numbers lol.....look at house prices for example
  17. that's what they said about the banks and look at the mess it has created now.....what mess? well why are half the eastern world fed up with the US and deciding to create there own 'monetary systems' outside of USD, swift etc.......
  18. ok soros, is your crystal ball relying on the 'fed pivot' or continued IR increases? which will almost certainly bankrupt some cuntries (not that they ain't bankrupt already eh lol)
  19. the stuff I see on rumble and twitter etc ie not the wealthy controlled BS media you get on telievision, the US is the most divided cuntry in the world right now, is being taken over by lardy woke eejits and folks in the government who are solely intent on 'raping the nation' and incurring as much debt as possible.......the UK is the same, will be lucky not to be begging to the IMF in less than another year and the EU isn't far behind......Disclaimer; I hold a UK passport but don't normally live there cos of the state of the absolute hovel....
  20. just open up a spreadbet account and short USD/THB ????
  21. yeah I have a few hobbies now, like not eating carbs and sugars and not taking *****........and being 'skinny'...... I imagine me/we are very much in the minority around here.... I can cycle to visit you for a chat and a glass of water (I don't drink either) if you're not too far away? lol
  22. did you know that fluoride is poisonous and it helps calcifies your pinneal gland? Descartes said your pinneal gland is the root of your soul ????
  23. so what, sure ALL governments print FIAT, but Russias is backed by gold now.......what's yours backed by? oh yeah, guns and the threat of nukes.....
  24. you don't need to borrow money when you can be 'mostly self-sufficient'.........I think you're falling for the western 'money is debt' narrative sir
