  1. Do a little research, some decrease and some increase every year however the total area remains constant and sometimes increases but photos are managed and posted of certain areas to give the effect they want, data is picked to promote their agenda. It would have more credence if they picked one date in time for all aspects. The west's model is flawed however the Russian model is far more accurate. (Note I'm not a Russian fan boy).
  2. And London and strange as it is they are all still here, infact you can get 30 year plus mortgages... Ha ha ha Banks are so stupid the world is about to end or is it the Sheeple who spout this cult nonsense? Hasn't it been 7 plus mad predictions by people like gore (who flies around on his private jet making millions a year from talking climate cult). The panic this man has caused to millions: Great lakes dry! No highest level ever recorded, No ice caps (some decrease and some increas as have done for millions of years), poor bears gone yet highest populations since records began infact so high they are starting to cross mate with Great Brown bears. Not on prediction has come true.
  3. Not really, hitting your head on concrete etc can be very deadly especially the weak back of the head. Really sad and his friend will now carry this guilt for the rest of his life. I had 2 friends in my youth "teens" they were inseparable and would die for each other. However one day they got into a fight at home and one brother picked up a golf club hitting his brother once on the head "Dead!" He was never the same again and I would be very surprised if he is still alive as he carried so much guilt.
  4. Still very considering. I never ever ran with the herd, I was not influenced with other soldiers. If I had not gone to Hong Kong I would never have got any tattoos as I did not like the thick lines of the ink in the UK. In Hong Kong the art was very good, so good that 20 years later a guy came upto me who I was teaching Scuba to asked me if I had got them at Jimmy's in Hong Kong. Apart from the admiration of the tattoos at Jimmy's alcohol played a big part in the decision making process of this young man 3 times = 2, 2 and 1 over a year.
  5. So I'm an idiot? I have 5 tattoos all of which I got in Hong Kong as a young soldier because I liked them. The question is do I regret getting them and the answer is yes except one "The sweetest girl I ever kissed was another man's wife my mother" means more now as my mum passed away. I was sensible enough to have them all on my upper arms so the can be covered with a shirt. I do not like seeing women with tattoos but if the personality was there it would not matter.
  6. Well they have proven inadequate, incompetent at everything they have touched. One just has to look at the growth figures plus the Thai rankings which were all much better. I never liked him personally but he was the best for Thailand and still is. A foot not to all the fan boys out there please tell me of one single country in the world that prospered after a coup, just one?
  7. Need to get out of the red light areas and talk to real expats. I personally haven't had many conversation in fact non that started with ""Sex" but then again most if not all I talk to Thai or expats married or in relationships.
  8. What about a rigged senate, a man in power who was not on a ballot, a man who broke his own made up constitution with rigged judiciary, rigged election. One could go on and on about the breaches of "The Party" but pointless but there is one thing for sure the PTP will be prevented from taking part or there will be a fixing of the result "How long are they keeping hold of the ballot boxes again?" There is only one way to take back the country, the same as it was taken. Its time!!!
  9. Basically No! Peer reviewed paper just published for covid (concor I think) and the use of masks (it begs belief that all the previous peer reviewed papers on viruses and the effectiveness of masks were not taken into account by governments).
  10. Of course he did! I imagine he was very worried or even scared as Thailand has a very bad reputation relating to police, bars and Thais. I really am shocked at the number of haters on here.
  11. You concluded the tourist started it, wow! You actually sound like one of those thugs who hit people and run away or maybe just a hater who for some obscure reason hates his fellow countrymen like so many on here?
  12. Why? In the UK and Europe and other countries things are starting to unravel about the past 2/3 years. From what I'm seeing people in the UK are getting very angry with the government (both parties) and the media yet Thailand is still pushing this!!!!!
  13. Why? What a twisted nasty arrogant thing to say. A tourist gets attacked by a young Thai who ran away (this act in itself is an indication of his guilt otherwise he would have stayed and filed a police report/compensation).
  14. Personally I would break up the fight and not join in. Only join in it someone else does. Thankfully thise days are passed as age, disability have crept in...
  15. It is far more dangerous than people realise. People hold their breath and dive down. They have a great old time the pressure makes the body think it has more O2. However, as they get closer to the surface the body is saturated with Co2 only inches from the surface and they pass-out AKA Drown..
  16. I can assure you I had enough income to stay in Thailand. Money was not the issue; uncertainty with ever changing rules. There was the over hanging threat of compulsory insurance because 8 years prior I looked into it for just my wife and son (my age would have been shockingly high) and it was far cheaper for me to buy a nice vehicle and my motorbikes all of which could be sold if needed and every 3 years I had a bonus on selling a vehicle which I would never have got with insurance). There was also the thought of walking about with a 400/800k target on my back. Thailand is a country that has had cases of families tortured and murder over 100k. The final straw was being told by an imigration woman who I had seen every 90 days and yearly for 8 years said "it's only 800k".
  17. The Thai military (being an exsoldier it is very hard for me to call them that) have a reputation for murdering their own people.
  18. No! However, they should. That is a much needed foreign currency. Thailand (not the majority of the people) hate you and want to squeeze every drop of blood they can and the Thai attitude of tough if you don't like it leave under the belief there are always more queuing up to come and live. At some point a while ago that changed and the realisation any sane person wod have people aren't blindly retiring in Thailand. People now research and also may expats come to a tipping point and decide to leave. We did that in 2019 "the whole family back to the uk" left our house etc and it was the best decision we have ever made. Life is good cold but good.
  19. Well done but some on here just can't help their negative remarks.
  20. And that's what you took from it! I never said fighter jets used against students. That's some leap.
