  1. The last game I went was on Boxing day at Old Trafford in the late 60s. United playing West Ham. Dennis Law was captain I think and Knobby Styles was in defence.
  2. Personal Loan - Chinote is held by lender, money given to borrower, when borrower repays loan they get the chinote back
  3. After two lean years with no business all tourists should be prepared to pay a little more to support small businesses
  4. Nobody suggests Thailand was never invaded. The claim is that Thailand was not colonised (by European powers.)
  5. The Orville is a comedy Sci Fi series in the style of Star Trek and is quite engaging. I've just started watching it so it remains to be seen what level of meaningful satire it might engage in. It has potential.
  6. I too felt Hit and Run was not as good as Fauda. There was less English dialogue too and I find subtitles a bore sometimes. I'm always on the lookout for new stuff from the ME. I enjoyed Tehran and Baghdad Central.
  7. Hhmmn Yes I recollect they fought as allies of the Japanese against the British around world war two. As for the insurgency in the south I thought they were Thais albeit muslim fundies not democracy demonstrators, students or nurses... but basically since the end of world war two the Thai army has primarily been fighting Thais to ensure the army runs the country...Er....such as now...
  8. The righteous campaign against the stinking Sheesha continues as does the campaign against the vile, e cigarettes. Great work and good decisions by the Thai authorities- especially when linked to the decriminalisation of dope.
  9. I was thinking in the last 200 hundred years as it seems the main enemy seems to be unarmed Thais.
  10. Someone who has never been to Thailand least of all Issan is starting a thread of dubious merit or use. I find such threads and their creators potentially vicarious Is it just me or do other people who actually live here find such threads vaguely voyeuristic- experiencing Thailand, the people and their culture through the eyes of others? There are two other similar posters generating endless threads non of which are important or merit serious attention. I query their motives but do should they? BTW The answer to the OP's question is Nong Khai not Burriram as most people believe.
  11. Unlikely if you were drinking.....
  12. Oh it will be! Probably first in the pubs of Pattaya and Pratumnak where die hard farangs insist there's no reason for masks, vaccinations or handwashing yet still moan about getting about long covid!
  13. The real talent was PJ Proby. Englebert was a gimmick and Tom a bore.
  14. Move it to different geographical locations If the problem persists buy a new device or take it to be repaired.
  15. Police? To apply which laws? Schools? To promote which values? Roads? To where? Hospitals? Sounds great idea but in Britain taxes pay for fertility treatment, transvestite operations, breast enlargments and INFURIATINGLY the Breeders and their kids.
  16. I believe mask wearing is an excellent idea my real issue is why more people don't wear masks more often as the Thais, Japanese, Chinese etc do. Hopefully Westerners will learn. I noticed recently in a recent trip to a major issan city there was 99.9% mask compliance which I was pleased to see. Its only in Thai cities polluted by Farranagance and fantasies of western superiority that poor hygiene seems to be returning.
  17. Thanks for your input. "Do you know what the cost differences are if you just used the wise transfer system directly from your UK bank account to your Thai bank account and is there any difference in the time they take?" BUT How can I transfer money or leave money with WISE without having a WISE account?
  18. Hhhmmm. I believe you have explained some problems I've been having. Thank you! I stand corrected
  19. Why so few holidays in USA?
  20. Hard to understand the unbridled enthusiasm for the channel. Its embarrassingly bad and lacking in any kind if critical awareness. Its a pity the government didn't kick him out
  21. Tax evasion is legal. Anybody who pays taxes they are not legally obliged to pay is stupid.
  22. Hopefully The British both in Asia and back home will learn about the benefits of masks. I remember when I lives in Saudi, Kuwait, and Libya also having to wear masks.
