    Seatbelts are only worn by wusses in Thailand........anyway, if you have a half decent amulet you won't need a seatbelt.

    Just take your phone to shop with a printer.....email the TM47 to them whilst you are they and they will print it out for you......that's what I do anyway.

    The only downside to his demise is the fact that the fat, lazy, ignorant b*****d will still make millions from destroying so many life chances and damaging the UK's economy for decades.

    I wonder how many of the committee are middle aged men?

    SOLUTION: All sugar cane must have leaves left on and the processors (the ones making a fortune at the expense of the farmers) have to strip the leaves and then.......???......mulch them, put into landfill, bundle them, find some use for them....??? Only on-cost, ignoring what the processors would have to do, would be an increase in transport costs.

    I'm coming to that conclusion........choking to death in Isaan

    Very little is burnt as it stands in the fields......labour rates are so low and the price of burnt cane so low it is more profitable to strip the leaves and burn them as the lie in the field.

    Farmers would need to be earning as much doing that as they earn from harvesting a crop or they won't do it.

    The owners are basically penniless farmers......fining is not a sensible option.
  10. Will B Good
    Incorrect.....the leaves would be cut off the cane and then burnt on the ground......in fact it is unusual to see sugarcane burnt as it stands these days.

    We are rarely at home.....travelling, housesitting, visiting the UK......just do one TM30 for your wife's address and you're done.

    Sad that it takes a civilian with a public profile to bring about any action on a topic everyone knows is endemic within the RTP......corruption.

    Agree....100% In my experience the Dr's we had on our staff were, by and large, very poor teachers........but their qualifications look good on the staff list for the Head and parents who don't know any better.

    I think you'd be surprised how many teach subjects at GCSE for which they don't hold a degree.
  15. Will B Good
    Unless you are teaching to advance levels, it is more important that you are 'able to teach' rather than have particularly advanced knowledge of your subject. I taught Mathematics, Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Business Studies and Music to 16 year olds for 25 years, but wouldn't claim to be an 'expert' in any of these subjects.

    'Moral' and 'Pattaya' in the same sentence.....must be a first.

    I drive from Nong Bua Daeng to Chaiyaphum and I am horrified to witness the risks drivers are prepared to take........overtaking at high speed on bends, brows, dips,.....it is no wonder these accidents are so common.

    If you were an ardent supporter of Brexit or the Tories, I would have thought it best not to do any fact checking.

    Love doesn't have to hurt? The severe rash I keep breaking out in says otherwise

    Any drink you buy a lady 'working' in the bar......and not sure.....freelancers and side-liners also?
  21. Will B Good
    I did seem quite popular for a while......strange that!
  22. Will B Good
    Whatever advice you receive, don't forget to factor in 'lady drinks'........they could amount to 20% of your expenditure........managed to run up a 2800 baht bar bill the other night on soi 8.....and I was only there a couple of hours.
  23. Will B Good
    Quiet a different account in the paper we can't to which we can't refer.
  24. Will B Good
    The hills are alive with the sound of....... crackling......quite a spectacle on a night to see the flames......been burning for at least two weeks here and there is not a snowball's chance of anyone doing anything about it.
  25. Will B Good
    If they make a decent return on their efforts they will do it....I agree.........but that return has to be equal to or better than the money make doing something else like cutting more sugar cane, harvesting yams etc.
