55555.....can"t believe you have just written that....unless it is sarcasm?

So they have stood by and 'allowed' the slaughter of 1000's with their infamous "fence sitting" foreign policy....but now it is inconvenient to have a trickle of refugees come across the border they spring into action....what a farce.

Ah!.....The "Best of British" on display for the world to see.......makes you proud doesn't it......doesn't it? Obviously fake or maybe leftwing 'agent provocateurs' led them astray and encouraged them.

I know the case is about falsifying business accounts...but this was good.

Packing as we speak..........soon be on my way to Chang Mai.

...and at the same time an article was published yesterday saying Pattaya hotel occupancy was well down????

Give me a bell and I'll explain it to you.

During covid mask wearing every Thai girl was to die for.

I got stung for 1000B once....but I was well gone.....555

Twice half its length. In BKK....... lady drink probably 200/250B

Pretty sure you can't pay PEA from your Bangkok Bank app.....we send money to a niece who pays the bill from her bank account...crazy.

Eastern Star Golf club house is quite nice Or the Lord Nelson right on the beach.

Haven't read the thread, but my understanding is that the 'beach deckchair people' paid good money to have the original trees ripped out so people would have to pay for shade.

Third world and developing nations just don't appreciate how hard life can be in the west.

The worse the service the bigger the tip and the more heartfelt the the thanks with a loud, friendly the goodbye.......just to embarrass

Let's hope they have some tech savvy folk there to sort this site out.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pensions_in_the_United_States

A report from the House of Commons Library shows that the pension systems of Ireland, Denmark and the Netherlands are arguably good European comparators for the UK State Pension system. This is because like the UK, these countries also provide a flat-rate state pension based on the number of qualifying years a person amasses during their working life. Ireland Ireland pays a non-means-tested, flat-rate pension to people from the age of 66 who have made enough social insurance contributions. The full rate is available for those with 48 or more qualifying years. As of 2021, the full pension amount is €248.30 (or £214) per week. Netherlands The Netherlands follows a pension system that consists of a basic state pension that is linked to the country’s minimum wage. A single pensioner gets an amount worth up to 70% of the net minimum wage. A pensioner couple gets the equivalent to 100% of the net minimum wage (50% each). The pension amounts are revised each January and July, alongside the minimum wage itself. The pension system is also residence-based. Individuals accrue 2% of the full pension amount for every year they reside in the country between the age of 15 and the pension age (up to a maximum of 50 years). Currently, the full pension amount stands at €1,218.19 per month (around £260.84 per week) for a single person. For married or cohabiting couples, it is €832.86 per month (£178.33 per week).

Need to hammer all those wealthy British expats on their big fat (worst pension in the western world) pensions.

Yes.....thought I had uploaded...but somehow they hadn't and had to either do again of do on a different screen or in a different section????....soz...can't remember the details.....but did get them to upload and it all worked fine.

I had the same problem.....I'm pretty sure I was not uploading the documents correctly...... can't recall what I did wrong or how I corrected it, but it was definitely related to uploading stuff.

The only surprising aspect here is that anyone is bothered about keeping this deal a secret.......he has money, he can do what the hell he likes.

UK interest rate cut hopes fade after inflation falls by less than expected.......how the markets view this amazing news.

I’ve always sent mine to my IO.

Bathroom plug?
