  1. I should imagine that mincing around the Russian side of the border with Finland is significantly less dangerous than deploying to Donbass as a "volunteer battalion". Mind you, probably not a good idea to upset the Finns, they can get quite "kinetic"!
  2. By way of an update, I have just spoken to my daughter who has a dormitory room in a block between the Obajour School and Sports complex and the main road. She tells me that the water there is 10cm deep, and rising. Luckily she is on the first floor (UK parlance) and has moved her scooter to a friend's house on higher ground.
  3. I see no reason to believe that she did not write it herself. She is, after all, an intelligent and articulate young lady, who is in particular known for encouraging young people to register and vote. I am sure that the Democrat campaign were aware of what she was posting, but there are no grounds to start a conspiracy theory! Incidentally it is significantly more credible than the buffoonery suggesting that she was endorsing Trump. Certainly it will enrage many within the "Trumpeters", I doubt somehow that she cares!
  4. An argument to be made yes, but I was commenting on the suggestion that she was not qualified to be President in comparison to Mr Trump.
  5. Word reaches me of significant flooding in Chiang Rai city today (11 September). I have to visit the Immigration office in the basement of Central Plaza tomorrow or Friday. I would like to know if they are affected by flooding, or open as normal. No luck trying to raise them on the phone, and I don't want to drive in 30kms on my motorbike, in this weather, to find it closed, so if any kind soul is wiser than me, and yes that is a very low bar...

  7. I don't think she is promiscuous - boy was I prepared to try, but I had, on reflection, to conclude that I wouldn't get anywhere!🙂 Still there is always the music and the photos!
  8. Kamala Harris had, at the time she declared her candidacy for President, according to one source I watched, some 34 years in public service, the greater bulk in elected positions. Trump, at the he declared his candidacy had zero, no, years in public service. Now, in his present campaign, he has, 4.
  9. The US Presidential election, because the USA is the world's greatest military and economic superpower, and the US dollar is effectively a world currency, is of great importance and significance to the rest of the world. That is why so many of us watch with interest, and can have strong views on the candidates. Whatever the outcome on November the 5th matters very much to the rest of the world. For those of us who live in democracies it is of consequence because it shapes the future, for those who live under various oppressive regimes it is even simpler - America for all that we criticise is a beacon. We cannot afford to let the light be dimmed, or perish the thought, be extinguished. It is not often I agree with the poster I quote. In this case I do.
  10. The would be Presidential version of "the dog ate my homework"!
  11. When faced with the lies, obfuscation and good old fashioned bigotry which defines much of the Trump/Vance campaign taking the Mickey in this way is effective, and almost impossible to rebut!
  12. Signing off as "childless cat lady" was brilliant. How to express your contempt! PS - gorgeous picture in OP!
  13. If he is from Dorset, then electronics is limited to: red to red and black to black, switch it on and stand well back!
