  1. So this topic is I assume a response to an answer I gave in another topic. If I caused offence, I didn't mean to but there are people on here and various other sites that ask questions that with just a tiny little bit of research would save themselves time and the 'effort' of having to post on a forum. Was it not on here a few years ago, someone was asking where to buy a toothbrush? Silly questions IMHO and I will stand by with what I said.

  2. Why only negative responses? Personally, I think there is a hell of a lot more police work being done than is publicised and instead of being so critical, why not let the police/investigators do their job and if anything, be positive. So, unless any of you 'nay' sayers know exactly what is going on behind the scenes, would it not be best to keep quiet about it?

    You obviously haven't been following this very closely.

    @ gemini18 - If it is relevant, touching 30 years. You?

    @ Phuketandsee - Quite the opposite but I am a realist. Yes, mistakes have been made but there is an awful lot going on that you, me and the rest of Joe public don't know about. It is for that reason I am not being so negative.

  3. South post # 22.

    ..... because ever since this incident occurred 95+% of the posts on this thread and the multitude of others have been demeaning and negative which does not help anybody at all. That's why.

    ..... Because ever since this incident occurred 100% of the police farce force comments and (in)actions on the matter have been demeaning and negative which does not help anybody at all. That's why.

    Didn't take long did it? Point proven.

  4. Type CTH Lamai into Google. It took me .59 seconds.

    You could have also not wasted 15 secs with that smart arse response. If you are still bored and lonely perhaps you could tell me if its still open and operating from there today?

    What is smart arsed about that? It states that there is an office on the ring road and it also gives you a call centre number.

    Stupid questions by lazy people! Simple as.

  5. If you break something, pay for it, simple! The charge might have been a little excessive but factor in that it may well have been part of a set, the inconvenience of having to find a replacement etc etc and it is not excessive at all. Accidents happen but if they happen on a daily basis, the costs incurred soon mount up. I am sure next time - you will be even more careful. :)

  6. Mrs South got her ILR touching 25 years ago (she is on her 5th Thai passport now) and when asked, she'll produce the passport first used and her present document. The others, she also carries but has never been asked to show them. When asked years ago if she wanted to go for British citizenship, her response was, "No, I am Thai and proud to be Thai."

    To this day she still travels on a Thai passport with no problems at all. She comes with me through the UK (Euro or whatever it is now) lane, has travelled throughout the UK, Africa, Asia and Australia and has never had a problem. In fact some years back we drove into Swaziland from South Africa and the border guard there shook her hand as it was the first Thai passport he had seen/stamped! Never had a problem ... anywhere.

  7. As you have been married for 12+ years, there shouldn't be too much of a problem as long as you can show evidence of the marriage AND that you (your Mrs) will not be a burden on the British economy. The rules have changed apparently but when my wife first applied for a UK visa it was a fairly easy affair, albeit it was over 20 years ago.

    IMHO, if you are doing anything 'important', it is always best to do it in person.

  8. As to responses from folks like Ulysses. G .....Well, anyone with 27,000+ posts obviously has no life whatsoever and therefore has no experience of how life is

    The old "too many posts argument". How clever. laugh.png

    But true, is it not?

    As to responses from folks like Ulysses. G .....Well, anyone with 27,000+ posts obviously has no life whatsoever and therefore has no experience of how life is and is in my opinion in no position at all to comment on others. Simple as that..

    Here we go again.

    Surely everyone has a right to make a contribution to this debate without being slagged off?

    You state that UG is in no position to comment on others... yet that is exactly what you are doing - commenting on others.

    What gives you that right? What on earth do you know about UG or anyone else who contributes to this debate? You judge a man purely because he has made 27,000 posts on an internet forum.

    Even five times married alcoholics and posters with 27,000+ posts to their name have a right to an opinion?

    Disagree with them - by all means - but slag them off! why? Does it make you feel good?

    Slagging nobody off at all - just stating (if you care to read) that anybody/any poster who has that number of posts spends ... again, IN MY OPINION, an extortionate amount of time in cyberland. That's one good thing about the www. everyone can have their voice. I only used UG's name because it was there within the thread, could have been anybody.

    What exactly is the difference between disagreeing and slagging off then? What exactly are you doing? Does it make you feel good? coffee1.gif

  9. All depends on who/what your Mrs is/was in my very humble opinion. Touching 24 years now happily married. Any faults in the marriage are/were my own fault. As a percentage, 98% happy. Not many couples can have that rating,

    As to responses from folks like Ulysses. G .....Well, anyone with 27,000+ posts obviously has no life whatsoever and therefore has no experience of how life is and is in my opinion in no position at all to comment on others. Simple as that..
