It's very brutal I have been twice to arranged low level fights because my daughter does the training for it. She wants to fight too. But we have said a definite no to that. The training keeps her fit and strong and she knows how to look after herself if need be. Went to the fights with her so she could see how brutal it really is, didn't put her off. I will be using this as another deterant for fighting. But she will be 18 next year and off to uni.

Both him and Musk are both totally underestimating the work involved. Neither Musks Mars project or this will happen in the near future. Maybe this is where the money saved by Trump in slashing jobs will be going so the rich can enjoy their fame at the expense of the poor.

Did 2 transfers yesterday on my laptop. A bit more longwinded these days as they have to send a pass no. But no issues for me. Both transfers almost instantaneous. Think it must be your internet speed or connection.

They are out and about. Collecting the brown envelopes.

As an expat here. I am bringing over less money now, not because I'm poorer or the exchange rate is bad. Just watching and waiting on the tax situation. Spending more of my money on holidays outside of Thailand. Laos and Vietnam gain at Thailands expense. I can't be the only one . Agree many shops always seem over staffed, not sure about Big C or Makro as there is never anyone on our check outs, in Sattahip.

Should add UK passport holder. Thais get less time but it's longer than the 2 weeks we are going for.

Haven't been yet, but I checked online and it appears we have up to 45 days without needing a visa. We fly early next month.

It will take at least a year to assess the implications of Trumps actions. Halfway into his presidency and you have a good idea. Good or bad.

10 years imprisonment would sort these odd balls out.

Deported to Isreal I hope.

I taught the solar system to P4 kids in English. I decided to do everything to scale. Sun was bigger than a basketball which we stuck to the board nearest the window and Neptune ended up outside the door. They were shocked how small the planets actually were. I was asked by one lad why I hadn't put the asteroid belt up. So I explained that they are so far apart from each other and so small, that NASA don't even take them into consideration when sending probes to Jupiter and beyond. Then blew the ones listening away after asking where they thought the nearest star might be in this scale. Beyond Bangkok. Nice to get some reaction, but science is always best for that. They are generally discouraged from asking questions as often the teachers can't answer, so lose face, and that can't happen.

So what are they?

Shame it's going, it's been really helpful for me sorting out my private pension issues. 20 to 30 calls over a six month period. Called HMRC on it several times this past year and kept waiting on the line for some time , very cheap so it didn't matter. Also had an issue when I had to call about the UK government pension several times again long queues for staff all cost less than 20 quid must have been on the phone for hours, in total. Also had a few calls to my bank in the UK. I use messenger or WhatsApp for personal calls to mobiles but that's no good for business.

All the relevant Thai goverments should hang their heads in shame detaining them for over 10 years. It would be hardly surprising if they actually had chose a return to China than continued incarceration in Thailand. Obviously they should have gone to Turker years ago.

Me too had a fever and got through that but can't shake off this awful cough. Definitely a virus maybe flu going in to the third week now drugs seem powerless.
