The claim is that of representative sample, not a referendum. 

I bet you the area of the sample wasn't some tourist area 😄

Should be an automatic jail sentence for fleeing the scene of an accident here unless you can prove you went straight to a hospital for treatment and reported what happened there .

Going by this guys relationship methods I better give my wife the bill for the last 16 years ! 🙄🙈😂

Were they armed ? 

Loan sharks will be rubbing their hands !!

What adaptations in Thailand of Western foods do you find strange and/or unappealing?

 

For me it's ketchup on pizza, corn in yogurt, salt in fresh squeezed orange juice, coconut ice cream served in hot dog buns, American fried rice, condensed sweetened milk on thick pieces of white bread toast, or how about those black colored "horse urine eggs"?

 

 

Yip the tomato sauce on pizza does me in . I make pizza for wife's young relatives that stop in now and again , they get it and put sauce all over the top. I point out you do know there is a load of tomato sauce under the cheese already, but they just laugh and walk off 🙈

The corn is a nope from me also as is seafood on pizza . Also not into any of the cold drinks they sell at stands like the coffee or ones that look like frog spawn in them .

Someone call the thought police !! 

Why was she paying rent for something she hadn't seen and was doing nothing with 🤔😂

I have a chocolate teapot factory for sale if interested .

Can I get that in writing ? 😀

Wonder how much it would take to make that standing stone fall .

Yes I’ve known people with same problem they couldn’t claim anything for two years

Yes I was told needs to be two years total out of a three year spell . So I could have left after first year for a year then returned for another year seemingly.

Opted to just leave after almost first year and not return 😁

Pretty sure car theft of high end cars less likely here , as is not getting mugged for wearing a decent watch .( Most probably think it's a fake 🤣 )

Violent assaults or attacks here with knives etc seems to be mostly for a reason and Thai people knows to victims. Be it money dispute, girlfriends finding a new guy or people being blind drunk on Lao kow arguing over the next drink.

In UK it's gangs of feral kids stabbing each other , random people, robbing anyone in broad daylight of phones , watches , scooters ,bikes etc .

As she has been out of the country she would not be entitled to free health care for a period of time and I doubt that she even has a GP in the UK which makes the situation even worse Being under the impression that she could land at Heathrow and be admitted straight to a hospital is pie in the sky if she entered the UK via Dover in a rubber dinghy she would have a lot more chance of being taken care of and that’s very sad !

When I went back I had to register with a GP. Ended up taking 2-3 months before I was in the system.

When on the phone to DWP offices while asking why I couldn't claim benefits for disability I said to the guy I bet if I rocked up in a dinghy at Dover I would have no problem getting everything I said. 

He said we'll no it doesn't quite work like that . I pointed out all the claims I had made took me 2 weeks to find and send off applications as most were not in plain sight to apply. Yet people in dinghies would have someone filling out every form possible to apply for asylum seekers. Where I as a UK citizen was left to my own devices . 

Needless to say I have zero intention of returning to the UK apart from visiting family.

I returned during COVID and tried to claim disability benefits as I can't work due to my disabilities. Was told I couldn't get anything from any place I applied as I would need be in the country 2 years before being able to claim . I Think You'll Find it's 180 Days in Any TAX Year Apri l6th to April 5th.......Plus I doubt she would get much in the UK after being away so long . She WOULD They have to SUPPORT Her...

Not if you have been out of the country continually for 3 years or more I was told by the DWP.

Easily pleased ! 🙄
