Yes he does, Only ADMIN can delete posts WHOOSH! Gawd... I was referring, tongue-in-cheek, to this part of his comment... "...so I can look like an idiot".

Not "disconnected" enough to be a full IATA member, though. Could be that the number of people who recognise scat as an activity is very restricted, to the extent of being insignificant to normal air travellers but hilarious to AN members by which, of course, all standards are measured!

Sounds like you are annoyed about the rules. Not at all, but it does look as though you can't understand my comment.

It’s complicated Wasn't that complicated, many were able to do it, without issue.

just the travel costs were keeping her down. tough being a single mum with 5 kids in the Philippines Bizarre, unfounded speculation.

What is odd is you misquote, or twist to simply cause an argument. Yet you cannot provide one example of that! And you seem to assume (wrongly) that you have the ability to know what other members' intent is...how could you ever know that?

They're here, many of them!

He loves to argue and will twist words or even completely change them to get an argument in when there was none. it is his style. To justify that accusation, an example of my "loving to argue" and "twisting words for an argument", as opposed to expressing an opinion that may differ from other's, would be interesting. It's odd that so many posters see my opinions, on a forum that encourages opinions, to be "argumentative" simply because they differ from theirs!

Doesn’t change things, who said it does? Well, you seemed to be suggesting that it may have done!... "Dates seem to match up with Covid".

Growing up in poverty, widowed, family to support and caught out by Covid. She was poor, really, but she wasn't so poor that she couldn't travel to Thailand twenty-six times? What's her being a widow got to do with it, even if she is? What family was it reported that she had to support that those of us who comply with the rules don't have? Provisions were made by the authorities for those stuck in the country, due to Covid restrictions, to be legal, so how did she "get caught out" by it?

"I wasn't making any claim that there would be any sort of "legal protection" applicable here". Really? Your post suggested that there is..."Historically, places of worship have been sort of like sanctuaries, and in some cases, legally such". "I also didn't claim or even remotely imply that acts of war would be applicable here, so why on earth would you mention that?" I mentioned it because you brought it up... "This protection can also be seen in how places of worship are given special consideration during war" and I didn't want you to cloud this issue with it. "Remedial reading 101..." Indeed. Perhaps you should do some, there is no such deficiency in my English-reading ability.

Yes, you probably are. Why should there be any empathy (or sympathy) for those who deliberately abuse the system, from those who comply with it? Is she special?

Did you need their assistance for that?

I don't think it's too difficult to grasp. Historically, places of worship have been sort of like sanctuaries, and in some cases, legally such. Any examples of the "legal protection" you claim that places of worship have that give that would be applicable here? Acts of war are not.

do tell us all what is relevant since you seem to know it all.....oh great one.....enlighten us common people Work it out for yourself but the description of the type of bus involved is irrelevant to the accident.

the Holy One has spoken...obey or suffer the consequences!... Are observations made by me not permitted here now?

Are Russians not allowed to live here, yet you are?

Why such guesswork?

No fossils were discovered, only skeletons.

What difference does it make? Why was the other vehicle described as a truck, not a lorry?

Seems the bus hit the back of the truck... nuff said. ...seems that the bus hit the truck that U-turned in front of it.

One - that's irrelevant to the circumstances. .

Where did it report that she entered with no valid visa?

Yes, but they allowed her to hide her identity completely, so no issue from a recognition point of view.

A disgusting waste of time and life. ...by her.
