    if you think weed did that you don;t know weed.

    recently got a deal with nordvpd, $2.40 a month for two years. great price, very happy with the product. (plus, means i don;t get bugged by ads ???? )

    agree, i see far too many guys cede control to their other halves, like they are scared to stand up for themselves in the relationship, don't know whether it's a lack of confidence, or low self esteem but seems to happen much more here than back home.

    arm the receptionist, arm the nurses, arm the doctors, give the patients a gun on arrival - just in case. next.

    sounds good, but, the airport facial recognition didn't recognise me last time i arrived in the uk, the IO at the desk cleared me in 10 seconds...

    common sense is related to having adequate insurance, especially medical insurance. he chose to self insure, a risky strategy in thailand, he lost, why should other people bail him out? where are his family? where are his friends? does he have assets; car, home, he should sell them.
  7. it is what it is
    what's cool is that people have the choice, and are 100% free to express their opinion and their choice.
  8. it is what it is
    don't need an expert to explain this, it's pretty obvious to anyone following current affairs, domestic/international news
  9. it is what it is
    SNAFU?
  10. it is what it is
    however mad and crazy thailand can seem, the good ole usa trumps it every time (no pun intended)
  11. it is what it is
    world economy issues, retail has been/is suffering in many/most countries, not a 'big c' problem, they are part of a massive corporation (with connections), they'll be fine

    the slightly surprising, but also heart warming, part of the story is that a 58 year old lady is seemingly able, without much effort, to find love/affection/action. as for advice to the OP, if someone lied me and, was actively looking for and/or went off with someone else i'd be out of there. life's too short.
  13. it is what it is
    agree, if a uk citizen get back asap. anyone planning on leaving the uk make sure you get and stay registered with a GP
  14. it is what it is
    i attach my laptop to tv with hdmi cable, works fine.

    bog standard mandatory tourist insurance policies would be hugely expensive if they included cover for motorcycle riding and other risky activities. the situation would be the same; it is up to the individual to ensure they have relevant and appropriate insurance for the activities they undertake. people have to stop this reckless 'entitlement' behaviour expecting complete strangers to bail them out when things go wrong.
  16. it is what it is
    because succession to the British throne is determined under common law, and not by the people.
  17. it is what it is
    tbh most people in the uk have bigger things to worry about. and there is another side to consider; the tourists seem to love the monarchy, and where there's tourists there's brass
  18. it is what it is
    exactly. if you're going to ride a motorcycle make sure you wear a helmet, appropriate clothing and have adequate insurance, it's a no brainer. personally, i wouldn't go near a motorcycle, not because i can't ride but because i don't trust the other guy.
  19. it is what it is
    riding a motorcycle he should have ensured he had insurance, he surely knew the risks he was taking. it's pretty sad if he genuinely has no family or friends prepared to help him out, it's not a huge sum he requires.
  20. it is what it is
    thai guy to his mate; you know what gets me about farang in issan, the way they go on and on and on and on and on...
  21. it is what it is
    or another family member, or a friend, it's not difficult
  22. it is what it is
    the thai friend's children work as, for example, accountant, economist, lawyer, business owner, most went to ABAC, CU or TU and several did Masters abroad. good jobs are there if you're smart enough to get to a decent uni, work hard and have the right attitude, very similar to my friend's kids in the uk.
  23. it is what it is
    don't faff around, send her the money, solves all your problems. next.
  24. it is what it is
    also... take a look at the type of thai adult that participates in the water throwing, they are almost entirely the lower class uneducated thais. my thai friends are educated, middle/higher class professionals who find the slinging of water in the street childish and irresponsible. they do however celebrate traditional songkran with their families.
  25. it is what it is
    agree, but that festival is confined to an area, therefore it's easy to avoid and people outside that are are respected. the problem with songkran is that you're seen as fair game even if you clearly indicate you don;t want to participate.
