    As seen on Al Jazeera, massive demonstration outside the building, and the israeli contestant was booed very loudly inside at a rehearsal.

     

    Why is israel even part of it? The Middle East is not in Europe.

     

    The organisers should be regretting that they didn't ban the israeli contestant. It's going to be real on the night if she shows up, even without flags inside.

     

    They have been in it, a very long time.

     

    Israel has won the contest on four occasions: in 1978 with the song "A-Ba-Ni-Bi" performed by Izhar Cohen and the Alphabeta, in 1979 with the song "Hallelujah" performed by Milk and Honey, in 1998 with the song "Diva" performed by Dana International and in 2018 with the song "Toy" performed by Netta Barzilai.

    Yes, there are many radio hams in The Phillipines, so no problem there.  I have joined a Facebook group for expats living in The Phillippines and am getting good advice about retiring there.

     

    There you go, sorted.

    Now  all you need,  is the location over there.

    Luckily for me, ex #3 is absolutely fine 🙂 (She is not the 'mad' ex #2...).  We divorced perhaps 10 years ago but stay in regular touch.  She is intelligent and hard-working and also rarely visits Ao Nang (the air is too humid for her delicate skin).

     

    I am also considering retiring to The Philippines because:

    - My UK state pension will not be frozen

    - I can find a rural location with healthy sea air etc

    - No 'baggage' from ex-wives

     

    Whatever I decide to do, I need to visit the location to check out all factors.

     

    Ok, Yes the Philippines, not a bad idea. ( pension and all that )

    and like you say, no ex wives around. :thumbsup:

    Can you still do your hobby there ( radio Ham )

    if so, why not do that.

    Not offering. You can always beat yourself off with one of the old Sylvia Krystel films, in an aircraft toilet.

     

    That's called the Half mile high club. :giggle:

     

     

  5. Uk properties,  unfurnished, fully managed,  12% gross to letting agent.

    Insurance, up to date total rebuild cost, plus the usual stuff, plus public liability cover, plus some legal cover.

    Not had any real bad tenants, you just need to be prepared to throw money at a situation,  until it's fixed.

    Can't complain,  it pays for me to live here, and if all goes south at some point, places to go back to.
