  1. Near the BTS? Any address/directions?
  2. Are they getting into your house or do you have an unfenced yard/garden?
  3. Can You Catch a Cold? Has not been recognized or debated in a single reputable medical or academic venue. Its support comes from extremist, alternative-health proponents, not mainstream experts. The central premise—terrain theory—contradicts established infectious disease science, which confirms that pathogens like viruses and bacteria causally drive illnesses. Koch’s Postulates (1880s) Robert Koch formulated criteria that link a microbe to a disease: The microbe must be found in all cases of the disease. It must be isolated and grown in pure culture. It must cause the disease when introduced to a healthy host. It must be re-isolated from the newly infected host. Animal Challenge Studies For over a century, scientists have isolated bacteria/viruses from sick people, infected healthy animals under controlled conditions, and reproduced the same disease. Influenza: In 1933, British researchers (Smith, Andrewes, Laidlaw) isolated the influenza virus and transmitted it to ferrets, showing reproducibility. COVID-19: In 2020, SARS-CoV-2 was isolated and shown to infect human cells and animal models (ferrets, hamsters, macaques), causing identical respiratory disease. In Vitro Cell Culture + Electron Microscopy Viruses like measles, polio, HIV, COVID-19 have all been: Isolated Cultured in cells Imaged via electron microscopy Sequenced genetically Polio virus was first cultured in human cells by Enders, Weller & Robbins in 1949 — winning the Nobel Prize in 1954. COVID-19 virus was visualized and sequenced within weeks in January 2020 — genome published publicly. PCR and whole-genome sequencing allow scientists to track pathogens during outbreaks (e.g., Ebola, SARS-CoV-2, H5N1). These tools link specific microbes to clinical cases of disease across millions of patients. Vaccines only work if the germ they target causes disease. Polio, measles, rubella, smallpox, diphtheria, COVID-19 — all controlled or eradicated by vaccines that target specific viruses/bacteria.
  4. Four comments in three minutes......calm down dear, calm down.
  5. Just been looking at the condo rents in BKK........unbelievable how much the prices seem to have dropped. Is this just down to the Chinese downturn??
  6. I think reintroducing that 300B tourist tax would boost tourism, along with a more complicated TM6, and more days when alcohol sales are banned. That should do the trick....oh and a general, across the board, price increase on everything to make up for the downturn .
  7. Three/four times.......I'm full of
  8. Right load of cobblers.....the guy sounds like a real heel, obviously has no soul. Should be laced up to the nearest tree and given a good shoeing or at least a good tongue lashing.
  9. .....and the other 50% were conned or simply lied?
  10. Quite possibly......and as it is optional.....don't do it.
  11. I would imagine the same traits that make any marriage successful....... bar girl or not a bar girl. No idea what those traits are though.
  12. BENEFITS OF GOING DIGITAL 1. Faster Border Crossings Facial recognition e-gates can eliminate the need to show your passport manually. Expected to cut wait times at airports, especially during peak travel. Similar systems already work well in places like Singapore, Dubai, and Australia. 🟡 Caveat: Not available at all entry points and still requires valid identity. 2. Convenience & Mobility The GOV.UK Wallet app allows you to: Store your passport, driving licence, residency permit, etc. Prove your ID instantly at banks, rental services, or online platforms. No need to carry paper documents everywhere. 🟡 Caveat: You’ll still need the physical version for most international travel until other countries accept digital versions. 3. Reduced Risk of Lost Documents You’re less likely to lose your ID if it’s stored securely on your phone. Remote revocation: If your phone is stolen, the ID can be disabled, unlike a lost passport or licence. 4. Improved Security & Fraud Prevention Digital credentials include biometric verification (like Face ID or fingerprint). Harder to forge than paper documents. Helps tackle ID theft, immigration fraud, and benefit fraud. 5. Cheaper & More Efficient Government Services Cuts down on postage, printing, and bureaucratic processing. Helps modernize public infrastructure. Could streamline services like the NHS, benefits system, and voter verification.
  13. No. This is just an app for secure digital storage of key documents and is optional. The documents will continue to exist and be required at airports for example.
  14. Gone are the good old days when the illegal bars were plenty and stayed open regardless.
  15. I find this accusation incredibly hard to believe.
  16. That being the case, and you may well be correct, I would push like hell, if i were Trump, to get all this out in the open (unless of course it gives him massive leverage over the guilty).
