Will B Good

Just reading the above is enough to make me give up alcohol.

It was meant to be a compliment.

Yes your right....dripping improves the taste compared to lard.

Middlesbrough.....that"ll convince me things here aren't so bad.

Yikes!

As soon as i see CH is commenting I know I can sit back in the knowledge my comments would be superfluous .

We see a lot on our walks in the wilderness......the wife has a fit when she sees them............she knows how painful they can be.

The truth? You can't handle the truth.......only joshing...on my third glass of 'wine'.

More than happy for 'outsiders' to be held to a higher standard......especially when you see the low life that comes here.

Only found out last week that they still contain quite a lot of fat....... there to help them cook!!!

Now that is odd....I find the complete opposite.....but the UK to me is Yorkshire...maybe that's the difference?

Frozen chips cooked under the oven grill.......nothing like chip shop chips fried in 'proper' lard, but perfectly palatable.

What else am I going to buy to get my spending up?

You do know they are a drop in the ocean compared to legal migration? Don't believe everything you read in the Daily Excess.

As much as I am thrilled that the Tories are toast they were correct in allowing people in with the skills we need......from fruit pickers to brain surgeons.....surely???

Which countries are encouraging this to happen?

WOW! I remember living off beans as a student '75-'78 and beans then were 11p.

How do you remove limescale from tiles and windows? A rather expensive water treatment setup. POE filters, gravel, sand, carbon filters and water softener.....not cheap!

Yes. Agree That is always in the back of my mind.....but at 68 with range of health problems the cost of health insurance is rather prohibitive. It is a gamble though.

Wife bought the land (2 rai) and paid for the house (three bed, all ensuite about 2 million). No health insurance as I keep my UK residency rights. No car. Biggest bills are electricity and food. Neither of us smoke, wife doesn't drink. One return flight a year 800 GBP. All in all not a bad deal.

Thai wife, plus, saving money like there's no tomorrow......'only' spend 40k a month in total.

...or we could all just be miserable .........ers

So down to 2% with the wallet?

Really small print...right at the end?

Got one three months ago, Chaiyaphum,....took a load of fuss, wrong form ,then wrong coloured ink, but they finally gave in....and it was for free.,
