  1. Don’t get too upset it is just another youngster discovering the wheel again, they do this every day and INFLUENCE the rest of the brain dead bunch to do the same.
  2. An earlier answer to mine was to put stones in a tin and rattle it when they approach you and this is good advice, however if you do the same in a large plastic water bottle and do the same it will make a louder noise because of the size of the bottle and that is enough to send them away. You do not need a lot of stones maybe 6 to 9 or twelve at most the rounder the better and of a size just small enough to go through the neck of the bottle, any smaller and they will not rattle properly.
  3. Stupid is as stupid gets that’s why the Thais are kept down, the information and advice given by monks is incredibly childish
  4. Take a look at your posture, ask your wife to watch you when you are walking, if you are leaning forward and dropping your head towards your chest it will sub consciously stay with you when you go to bed so straighten your back and raise your head on the pillow, you could even use a neck brace like the one used by people with spondylitis but only briefly no more than a week or two and only when you sleep. Probably the best way to find out if you are doing this to any degree is to lie down flat on the floor and if it hurts to put your head down so much that you have to raise your legs to do it, there is your problem SO stay on the floor and relax your neck and when you feel comfortable slowly lower your legs until you are lying flat with your entire body in contact with the floor, then slowly move your head left to right shoulder to shoulder, if it hurts stop the movement at that point, but each time you do it try to move it a little further the idea of the exercise is to regain full movement in the neck do not raise your head off the floor to do this. Do all of this as often as you like in a day and certainly every day and do not at any time force any part of the head movement further than is comfortable. When getting back up again roll over onto your knees and get up. It worked for me so Good luck. PS leaning forward and dropping the head towards the chest is an age thing so don’t be shy most of us do it but are not aware of it until someone tells us we are doing it. .
  5. Full name is’nt Stephen GOTTFRID is it?
  6. Neither would I. At the moment his friend has a piece of albut useless land that no one including him takes care of and then along comes the poster believing everything his “friend” tells him and builds a house on it, and when it is completed and BEFORE he moves in his good “friend “ decides not to be so friendly anymore because he now has a very useful piece of land with a house on it for FREE and now worth at least a couple of million. Like a lamb to the slaughter comes to mind.
  7. I believe that if you go to the lowest level and walk through the tunnel leading to magic village street food you will pass male and female toilets, just descend around the middle of the airport and you will have to pass through the tunnel.
  8. Sounds to me that you have a leak in the fuel delivery system which allows air in over night and you have to crank the engine until the fuel is pushed to the engine clearing the air and allowing the engine to start, the earlier suggestion of a leaky injector could be correct so you should check all fuel line connection's.
  9. Funny but I do not ever recall stating that others do not use telephones or technology just because I choose not to nor have I ever stated that I am not in favour of it, after all how could I be against something I use myself, the difference is that I use it in moderation and do not allow it to run my life. As for your statement that technology has not caused a dumbing down I trust that when you run down the clown who is glued to his, her telephone oblivious to anything around them and steps out in front of your car, you find some other reason as to why that person did it. It is quite obvious that to admit that technology was the cause would be a complete anathema to you. Look in any restaurant etc where you will see two or more people at dinner all of them glued to their respective smart telephones with not a word passing between them and then tell the world that media technology has not dumbed them down.
  10. My sentiments exactly digger, well said. I carry a PB only so that I can watch a movie on my iPad when doing interminably long bus journeys in Thailand and the UK, other than that everything remains turned off and never used on aircraft for that I watch in flight movies using a little gizmo that allows me to connect EarPods using blue tooth so no wires to tangle in.
  11. My telephone gets turned on for less than one hour each day just to check my emails and other messages, should I need to make a call it is done within that same hour and then turned off until the next day. I have better things to do with my time than to be glued to a technological dummy or as some would say a pacifier, I do not subscribe to Facebook, TikTok or any other of the media sites that do every thing in there power to undermine the intelligence of the individual. And before the clowns out there who put funny face emoticon on this reply, don’t, you only place yourselves in the category alluded to above and look stupid for doing so.
  12. Airlines now offer internet services for the duration of the flight so have you ever tried using your phone etc from a bag and a fire proof one at that.
  13. Does it really matter, the point is this woman did not snatch the land of these poor people and herein lies a lesson for the thousands of heartless mafia types who know full well that the interest they charge makes the debt un repayable and it is about time the banks made borrowing at a low interest rate more available to needy hard working people, there is no reason to believe that they do not have the experience to know who is a relatively good bet to lend to, and that alone will undermine the loan sharks by about 95%
  14. Absolute RUBBISH ! Upon further investigation it may well be found that the item was a Chinese knockoff readily available on the streets of Thailand. Most Quality power banks carry a kite mark denoting it’s from a registered quality producer, my own PB has this mark and I always give it to the security staff to to check it when I go through the X-ray, and it is the first thing they look for, usually those who have inferior products get it confiscated, and rightly so. In my estimation the staff were not on the ball in this case and further training would not go amiss. I always carry a spare phone with me in my iPad bag and a PB beside it and if I should forget to take it out the staff have ALWAYS asked to to see it but ignored the phone, so well trained staff can always tell the difference
  15. It is called CONTEMPT for all who are / were loyal to them. I fly 4 times each year and used to fly all over the place in domestic but up to now after god knows how many years I do not appear to have accrued enough Airmiles for even a ONE WAY internal flight after spending thousands of GB pounds with them
  16. Just how SAFE are you if you die in an accident ?
  17. I was once told by a Thai hotel receptionist that all over yellow cabs are predominantly run by mafia types and I have to say that has been my experience at the airport
  18. If as you say “don’t do F ALL “ you are actually doing everything.
  19. What always amazes me is how according to the reporter the VEHICLE always loses control which begs the question what the hell was the driver doing? Surely the vehicle is only doing what a vehicle will do if the DRIVER is not in control. RIP young man.
  20. So Thailand just who is going to monitor this and act when a transgression is spotted? I sincerely hope it will not be the likes of the cop who today stood idly by as a pickup up truck driver ran a red light and forced me to stop walking across the marked crossing on the road narrowly missing me, the clown in brown just watched and did nothing, obviously there is absolutely no connection between scratching his a - - and doing what he should have in accordance with the law. So will this new emissions law be implemented ??? Off to 7/11 now to buy more masks.
  21. At last someone who reads and understands the entire article as written, well done! However I am more than surprised that you have not been castigated for doing so. Guess I will be though for pointing it out
  22. Yes because it was untreated and no attempt made to compost it over time, just dump it and spread it.
