You're welcome, don't mention it. Always happy to help.

Well, I actually leave it to soak in vegetable glycerin and use it in my vape.

Have you tried snus? Got to be better than starting up smoking again. You do need to be careful of the nicotine levels though, as when people switch from vaping, they often underestimate the absorption levels.

Last time I renewed my licence, you could watch the video online then they give you a certificate to print out. So much easier.

He's defo British, from up north, Leeds or somewhere around that area.

But there is still the baseline of 20%, or is it 10% now? It seems even customs aren't sure anymore. If Trump had gone about these tariffs in a slow and steady way, he may of garnered some respect and possibly achieved something. But no, he had to go about it like some crazed chimpanzee on acid until no one knows what the hell is going on. I really can't see any business setting up in the US in this climate. All tariffs might be cancelled next week for all we know.

It's been a while since I traded options, but I suspect a lot. Here's the latest S&P 500 options. Some are up nearly 10,000%. So you put a billion in and get 100 billion out. https://www.barchart.com/stocks/quotes/$SPX/options?expiration=2025-04-09-w

And there we have it, the great depression of the 21st century was avoided because people were getting 'yippy' I thought insider trading was illegal. Oh, it's Trump, never mind then.

I agree, but it's my private pension fund. I don't have much control over it, it's either all in or all out and it takes them several days to switch it over. I made well over 100%, so can't complain. But yes, time in the market vs timing the market, or however that saying goes.

There was a rumour picked up by CNBC, I believe, that Trump was mulling a 90 day pause on the tariffs. The news sent the S&P 500 into the green, but then the White House quickly denied the claim and said it was fake news. They could have just kept quiet unless Trump really does want to tank the market. Glad I got out 6 months ago.

Try Tiktok for videos of damage to condos. This one is in Chiang Mai.

Estimated magnitude 4.9 earthquake

OOh that was a biggy. Felt like I was sitting on a bus.

I watched ' The Pale Blue Eye' and really enjoyed it. A great performance from Timothy Spall. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt14138650/?ref_=nm_flmg_job_1_cdt_t_2

People often accuse Truss of not being very bright and here she has just proved them right. If anything, Musk IS the 'deep state'. An unelected billionaire elitist running the show from the shadows to benefit himself and his ilk.

I think when he was pushing Ivermectin as a cure for Covid, he was ridiculed by the MSM, and something seems to have snapped.

Is this some sort of 'joke'?

Completely misleading article. He was fired because he highlighted the fact that $500m worth of food was going to waste because of the freeze on USAID. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/usaid-inspector-fired-trump-freeze-b2696917.html

Slightly OT but you normally get free shipping from Lazada if you order on your phone and collect the tokens.

If you watch the beginning of the interview, the little boy is standing next to Trump and says something like,' You're not the president, and you need to go' Quite bizarre.

Propaganda. With Musk owning Twitter and Facebook rolling back fact-checking, it can only get worse.

Sourdough has a lower glycemic index than ordinary bread. Even better if it's made with some wholemeal flour.

So all those people being rounded up and sent to Guantanamo Bay without trial can just say they are having a tough time of things lately and will be set free?
