$596, including an overseas processing charge of $184. I understand it's the world's most expensive passport.

The last time I renewed my passport in Thailand, it was with the Honorary Consul in Chiang Mai, Ronald Elliott. His mobile number is 091 857 6996. I don't know if he is still serving in that role.

Imagine what happens when a nuclear reactor gets out of control. There's quite a few of them afloat and below water.

What makes you think a tug would cost any more than the hundreds of bulk carriers criss-crossing the oceans every day?

I do OK on a part Australian pension, plus investments. I am actually saving money living here. Australia is one of the few countries that produces clean food. At least I have a government that does not freeze pensions for the crime of living overseas.

Hit and run got me, I'm all broken!

My mistake, your final update post did not mention it. -

A good result. A pity you got no monetary compensation; however, removing him from being a danger to the public is probably just as satisfying. -
The alarming mental decline of Donald J. Trump -- watch this space
Lacessit replied to Jingthing's topic in Political Soapbox
How do you know you are not in mental decline yourself? -
You've heard of tugs?
-
Aircraft carriers don't use electricity for propulsion. The heat generated by nuclear fission is use to generate steam, which then goes to a steam turbine, converting thermal energy to kinetic energy. That's what turns the propellers. As far as risk goes, I'll take sitting on 275 tons of batteries over sitting on a nuclear reactor every time. So would most insurance companies.

None. I only have debit cards. One with Kasikorn, two with an Australian bank. I have a deep aversion to any form of credit. It's why so many people are drowning in debt. Call me a dinosaur, at least I know I will die solvent.
-
Nuclear powered. Have not heard of aircraft carriers using lithium batteries.
-
More relevant than the UK, anyway. One of the world's biggest suppliers of minerals and natural gas. We can feed ourselves. You check the passports of everyone during Songkhran? FYI, I hole up in the village, so don't blame me.
-
Tugs. The ferry distance between the two ports is 200 km maximum. Less than half the distance a Tesla or BYD can do on a single charge, and a catamaran hull to reduce drag. I guess there will always be people yearning for a horse and cart.
-
Only the deserving.
-
Well, the result is both Canada and Australia have elected left-wing governments. In Australia, conservatives aligned with Trump were annihilated. Australians don't like bullies, perhaps you enjoy being a doormat.
-
The only insights you seem to post are abuse. Another rent-free head.
-
There's a book by Geoffrey Jenkins called " A Ravel of Waters", published in 1981. It centres around a sailing ship called Jetwind, with fully-computerized sails.
-
Quite dark. I am actually somewhat disappointed, like many authors Burke seems to have run out of inspiration, and is reduced to potboilers.
-
IIRC the Bund was quite active in America from 1936 to 1941. Ironically, Joseph Kennedy was noted for his opposition to American involvement, and his anti-Semitism.
-
There's not enough information. We need pictures.
-
I am never sure whether his/her/its posts are interjections or ejaculations.
-
LFP batteries do not have lead or zinc in their construction. Possibly you are thinking of non-rechargeable batteries.
-
I'd say going by the responses on this thread, I am living rent-free in the heads of some posters.
-
More than enough trolling on ASEAN without getting into the Trump sewer.
