  1. Kind of irrelevant, he's widely popular and had garnered strong international respect. But to answer your question he was voted in by a big margin. He was a popular comedic actor TV star who played at being the president of Ukraine. Just like now.
  2. I get readings like that if I miss my swimming regime for a couple of days I'm seriously considering getting back to my "pre-Covid days" walks up Monkey Hill in Phuket Town. When the virus arrived, they blocked the road up the hill, but I think it's open again now.
  3. I am so sorry to hear that. You must be devastated. Nothing else I can say.
  4. I've got one. I take pills at 8pm and measure the systolic, diastolic & pulse at 10pm. Sometimes I forget to take the readings, but I have about 2,600 readings written in a note pad. I recently stopped taking the pills for 5 days. The readings went from about 115/65 pulse 65 to 155/85 pulse 70. I'm back on the pills now.
  5. Two people I know have died of cancer - one very recently. I wonder if they had known the months of "zero quality of life" awaiting them, whether they would have - or could have - ended the agony earlier.
  6. Of course they don't. They also didn't want to be bombed by the Kiev government in 2014.
  7. Don't ascribe to me feelings that I do not have. I read what is going on from more sources than you, and I report on what I read. As for your "FYI": 22% of Ukrainians declared Russian as their native language but 36% said that they speak Russian at home.
  8. Take it back to where you bought it.
  9. I second this, I know many farmers that take HUGE pride in the welfare of their animals - this makes not only moral sense but financial sense. Happy, well content & stress free animals produce better So this: "Babies still wet from birth were tossed into flimsy outdoor plastic huts" - is possibly not exactly true?? ???? https://animalequality.org/blog/2022/03/08/our-global-mission-to-expose-dairys-hidden-cruelty/
  10. But don't cows like to be milked? And then we get butter, too. Win-win situation?
  11. Job done. Decided to suffocate the little ******s: So I did: And that plastic bag is now inside a big dustbin liner in the shed out back. I'll leave it for a week or two. I'll check the new post box daily and give it a spray with Chaindrite.
  12. I just put a small jug 1/2 full of distilled white vinegar in the box. I covered half the top of the jug with strips of sellotape so if my electric bill comes tomorrow, it hopefully won't get wet.
  13. "My" wasps have quite a narrow single yellow/green band around their abdomen, near the end of the abdomen. Not sure if the colour is important - could be caused by the blue post box reflecting its light onto the wasp.
  14. I was actually thinking of writing a warning in Thai, something like: "Beware! Bees inside!" and sticking it on the post box. But then I thought maybe I'd be sued by a stung postman for not getting rid of them sooner ???? . So are they bees or wasps? This better photo should clear that up:
