  1. Nothing wrong with my calculator, just my brain , I get what you meant now.
  2. I think UK population is around 70 million so its more like 1/70th isn't it ?
  3. So you were apologising, and now you feel embarrassed, good
  4. I don't think the photo was taken in Thailand at all
  5. Your placing of the word in parenthesis implies a kind of apology There is absolutely nothing wrong with profiling be it racial or otherwise, It makes for much more efficient law enforcement when utilised correctly
  6. Well 20 years ago my mother sent me £40 on my birthday, The card arrived but the envelope had obviously been opened, needless to say the money was gone. does that count. Who said the GT-200 was a fake eh ? oh it was me
  7. And what if they scan the package with one of those GT-200 detection devices ? I heard every post office has one in fact if the op took his viagra in combination with some iron supplement he could perform a similar function, He might even be able to hire himself out to the military, they fell for it once before,
  8. I sincerely hope you are a Thai national directly related to Pita, otherwise your comment is just plain weird and more than a little disturbing
  9. my grandfather recently confessed to the family that he regularly used viagra, we were all shocked.....but nobody took it harder than grandma
  10. I don't think it would be "too hard " if you just put them in your pocket
  11. There's a new one available called viagra "lite " not that effective in the bedroom but you will look pretty impressive in a pair of speedos
  12. Hmmm thats a hard one (or maybe not) The absence of reports of contraindications from others makes you confident enough to shovel them down your neck without concern, have you heard of any instances of problems posting them ? Anyway if you did get caught the sentence probably won't be too stiff
  13. Thats scary I'd bin it, or at least earth it! on my consumer unit there is a switch which says off / on for the elcb but when it was switched "on" it didn't trip when i pressed the test button, I asked crossy about it , turned out that the switch related to a bypass for the elcb ( not sure what purpose that served ) and should be set to "off" good job I asked, Nothing on the box indicated this!
  14. Regardless of your memory being right or wrong he'd get a "shock" if he ever comes to work here
  15. Hardly my opinion, I quoted exactly what he wrote, however I agree to disagree with you, how could I do otherwise
  16. And that is not, in anyway, limited to zebra crossings.
  17. probably wouldn't be difficult for him to feign incoherence if he thought it would help mitigate his punishment, they know every trick in the book, and the authorities fall for it every time. Thankfully I doubt a social worker will be provided to argue his case for him, unlike in the west.
  18. No it was not, he stated that the victims of such cowardly attacks were never Muay Thai boxers or others who are strong, here is what he wrote , you might like to read it again before you make a bigger fool of yourself "It seems that these "hallucinations" are quite selective in targeting children, women, old or disabled people. For some reason athletic men, Muay Thai boxers, or anyone who appears to be strong is never a target..." Which part of that are you having trouble understanding? Where does he suggest, strongly or otherwise that all Thai men are muay thai boxers Looks like you have enjoyed another good lunch, Two days on the trot Answers on a postcard please
  19. He also mentioned the potential risks of family groups travelling together in rented vehicles during the long holiday period. Yet no details of these potential risks were given,? How is driving a rental car more risky than driving their own badly maintained car
  20. The problem is certainly about probing, not sure if "depth" is the issue, from what I have heard the chinese are not generally equipped to probe too deeply, but it appears they can probe just as effectively the rest of us
  21. Again I don't have the answers, But I can't see any reason why an adult should be able to access the kids toilets, except in some sort of emergency situation, give each kid a swipe card to gain access, with just one available to adults for such emergencies which must be signed for, is the best I can come up with off the top of my head. Or maybe some sort of non intrusive CCTV ? neither of which is totally foolproof Drugs are a different matter, which I have not really thought about, whilst use of illegal drugs it not necessarily indicative of being a pedo I do agree that it is far from Ideal, I guess like many here, I was once reluctantly persuaded to visit a local school to speak a bit of english to some kids for one morning. I was invited and agreed to stay and have lunch with the teachers. there was plenty of alcohol on the table and from what I could see in the recycle bins that was not a one off for my benefit. So they could start with addressing that. I really have no experience in these matters , and some of my Ideas may sound ridiculous, my kids have long grown up and left school, but I still find it concerning, Who wouldn't
  22. Difficult question, to which I don't have an answer. Clearly the current safeguards are not enough, but what other options are there? Background checks to weed out those with "history" could no doubt be improved, perhaps some sort of international database could be set up, if there isn't one already, I'm guessing most of the abuse takes place on a one on one basis, so there should be no opportunities for any teacher to be alone with a child. I'm also assuming that most of the abuse takes place outside of the school / classroom, Is there any reason for a teacher to have any contact with the kids they teach outside of working hours? If so then maybe some sort of chaperone system should be implemented, this would protect the children and also prevent false accusations being made against teachers I doubt Increasing the penalties for abusers would achieve much the consequences for those that get caught are already quite severe yet the abuse continues, and the death penalty never stopped murder . Educating the kids and parents to help them identify abusers would also be a possibility but bearing in mind the reluctance of many teachers to even discuss things like birth control I can't see that being anything other than , of limited use , There is an old saying, "it takes one to know one" perhaps convicted pedo's could be used to help identify potential offenders, along the lines of the role played by hannibal lecter and others like him in the movies. There are endless possibilities, that could be explored, If only science could develop some sort of "pedo test" along the lines of the polygraph lie detector test But, would it even be allowed, ? I have heard some astonishingly shocking reports mainly from the USA. of progressive liberals arguing that pedo's should now be classed as "minor attracted people" the first step in an attempt to normalise their behaviour. God forbid that,such a test, if one existed, could, in the future be considered to be contrary to their "human" rights For those that think that would never happen, just remember, Homosexuality was Illegal and generally reviled in many countries until relatively recently. I'm not homophobic and I am not saying that it was right. But it is an example of how attitudes can change, Things once unacceptable become acceptable, and vice versa, Pedophile is a considered a rather unpleasant adjective at present, lets just hope that "pedophobe" doesn't take its place
