Regardless of what spices or herbs you cook with. My father who was a professional chef for 36 years taught me to grill the steak, 1 minute both sides to seal the juices in and then it is entirely up to the individuals taste whether they like it rare or well done

Never

That's a new one on me, leaving the country yes

I can only speak for myself but I grew up where the nearest house (not village or town) was 3 miles from me. That is probably why I prefer to live in non tourist areas of Thailand

Also many people are bored with their life

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, it does not mean they are right or wrong

I find the North the most friendly. I would also say the same in my own country

The reason I live in Thailand is because 34 years ago I fell in love with Thailand and to this day I am still in love with Thailand

I can only speak about Thailand, Cambodia, Laos and Vietnam. Vietnam is the friendliest. JMHO

Very good, you were either a printer or it took you a long time to look it up. When I was 15 years old I was what was termed a compositor, ie placing either single metal letters or wooden letters in what was called a stick, after that I moved on to be a paste up artist (film on a sticky membrane, end product positive or negative film, after this I became a desk publisher, then I was a planner/platemaker (this was taping positive or negative film on thick film, creating 8, 16, 32, 48, 64 or 128 page formats) Then direct to plate came in from the pc. This was when I finally took volunteer redundancy. You and many people thought printing was easy (that is your/their opinion) for me working a 12 hour grave yard shift with only 20 minutes break was tough, knowing that many times that product had to be out of the door early morning, in those instances, I will do it tomorrow was not an option

All women like to be in control whether it be an Asian woman or Western. It is also the mans fault always. This is a fact of life

You seem to know a lot about printers, I was in the trade for many, many years, so go on enlighten me and I will tell you whether you are right or wrong

I suggest you ask the printers union which I was a member for 34 years

What makes you think I didn't read it?

5% I don't believe it

Why?

It is exactly has what of my friends have been saying, until there is anything concrete just wait and see. There is actually a query form specific to Double Taxation Agreement, on the HMRC website which you can submit and they will get back to you (that is of course if you want to get in touch with them because you have to fill in personal details) 😜 😜

If I ever go to a girlie bar which is rare, I just say would you like a drink or 100 baht while you have a chat with me. They always say 100 baht

Bars in general, not just in Thailand. You only have to look at the average age of customers

Transport is very limited

Agree. There is no such thing as labour anymore. Two faced Blair was responsible for that

I have a friend who has a girl from a massage, she goes round regularly after she has finished, for him cheap, for her a nice hot shower and comfy bed

One of my friends does this

I think you are looking into this too deeply, most people I know are in the waiting and see categories

While there are idiots in power there is always danger
