  1. Is it a climate emergency?
  2. Absolutely no need for that, I'll say. It's a tiny burger, padded out with some veg and stuff and you've been charged 1/2 lb price. You were done.
  3. Cool. I'm guessing you've contracted wokeness somewhere along the line. Can be absolutely debilitating if not treated early enough. It's almost as bad as gambling.
  4. Looks okay but a tiny burger compared to the overall dimension.
  5. Never had this problem with Grab.
  6. You could try the international hotels websites in case any of them serve fish and chips on a particular day. Obviously more expensive if there is, but I reckon they'd make a better job of it than the regular outlets in Patts/Jomtien. Also, a traditional UK fish and chip shop will have salt (sometimes pepper) and vinegar on the counter as free condiments. Tomato/brown sauce, mushy peas, curry sauce etc., are extra. Other side orders can include pickled eggs (truly evil), pickled onions (very nice), fish cakes, sausages, saveloys and pies. A UK fish and chip shop will also serve a range of fish and not just cod (including fish roe - again, truly evil stuff). My Thai wife loves rock (cue the jokes) and invariably opts for rock over cod, but we don't have it too often because it's so expensive now.
  7. The Black Swan on Sukumvit Soi 19. Used to be located on Sukumvit Road but moved not so long ago.
  8. Pop's is reliving his youth and quite normal. I suppose you could relay to the daughter to throw an Apple AirTag in his luggage and track him down - almost certainly to Patts, but to have a good think about this approach because sometimes ignorance is bliss (remembering you can buy absolutely anything in Thailand and certainly not limited to ladies of the night or new girlfriends, if she gets my drift).
  9. If my wife and I are out and about and she mentions being hungry, I promptly find the nearest eating establishment to ensure the condition doesn't escalate.
  10. The price of fish and chips in the UK now is rather hard to swallow (excuse the pun!). Our local is over twenty quid for one large chips and two cod.
  11. Try this: Change iPhone location
  12. You need to change you location to Thailand in iPhone settings. I suspect your location is set your home country.
  13. I do partake in a couple of three alcoholic beverages to help me sleep. As well as two or three in the lounge for good measure.
  14. In fairness, the NHS are finished, with or without WW3.
  15. Legal challenges galore. Pathetic attempt trying to stem the tide of migrants. Actually laughable. The Tories are toast. It's what replaces the retards that concerns me most.
  16. Disappointing. I've been working hard on acknowledging my white privilege and recently made reparations.
  17. It would be a terrible incident if Greta was accidentally struck across the head with a police baton. Probably best move to China where they're far more tolerant of anti-government protests.
  18. Check Flightradar24 over Ukraine for latest aeronautical activity and don't forget MH17.
  19. I know it's not the done thing to comment on moderation, but I might get away with suggesting the moderators appear to have collectively developed a recent sense of humour. Nice! 😀
  20. You're a master in backhanded compliments.
  21. Haha. Where are all these warriors hiding? Try a general military call up in the UK and see who signs up to fight Russia. Will be lucky to enlist of a couple of non-binaries who won't fight Monday through Friday. Blimey.
