That is a great idea - set the weight limit at 120Kgs and if they cannot fit in the 'trial seat'.

Been there done that - you can still here some screaming babies from there - one reason never wasted the money again.

Reminds me of a long flight I had, where this bloke in the window seat was drinking beer heavily and would get up for a pezz every 15-20 minutes. After 4 or 5 times I said 'why dont we swap seats' and he said eff off I wont the window. So I said 'this is the last time - slow down the drinking'. He ignored me. I again packed up my laptop and work documents and stood up to let him out - and did that again when he came back. 15 minutes later he wanted to go again - I said 'No - pezz in a bottle". He complained - I refused - he called the stewardess. When she arrived he went off - I said nothing - when she asked why I refused to move, I said he has had at least 8 beers and goes to the toilet every 15-20 minutes and has done that 6 times so far, which means I have top pack up all my gear to let him out, and again to let him back in. I said that I offered to swap seats but he was offensive and refused. She asked him 'is all that true' and he said 'Yeh, so what - I can go to the toilet if I want'. She then said to me 'we have a spare seat in business class, would you like to move?' She helped me pack and carry all my gear to business class, and she did not say another word to the ars****. Winner winner chicken dinner. Sad thing is that less and less stewards are like that these days.

Conservatives dont have a 'Leader' unlike you woke cult socialists - we have someone that we agree with.

Trump was right about everything - and he is still winning. I know this because the woke liberals are constantly attacking him. Therefore he is tearing down their world and making a positive difference. When he stops winning they will go quiet - then I will worry.

Good point. But I am OK with that - as long as they start to do something about it.

I dont not give a rat's rear end what you do.

BS - at the top are Thai Trucks Drivers - especially on the highways.

When this next screws up - and it will - dont come back here mate. Dr Jack told you who to contact - but you phoned "Immigration". And you believed what the person said based on what you said - ROFLOL. Get real - and go away.

IMO anyone over 120Kgs should be forced to buy 2 economy seats, or use business class. And children under 4 years old should be banned on all long-haul flights over 4 hours. \\\

as sharp as a bowling ball

No answer? I will answer for all the woke liberals. Because I have a mental problem that denies anything that Trump does can be good - I see nothing but bad things when Trump is mentioned. I hate him and everything he stands for - Democracy, National Pride, Capitalism, Self Reliance, Rule of Law, Deporting Illegals, Equality of Rights but not Outcomes, and last but definitely not least The Constitution of the USA. Back to me. One issue I and all rational sane people noticed during Trump's first term, was that when the USA stock market dropped it was all Trump's fault, but when the stock market increased ................. crickets in the night. And they are doing the same - any drop is the end of the world and any increase = silence. Much like when they are asked a rational sensible question like yours ............... they have got nothing but feelings. Imagine a world that has been run based on people's feelings and not based on rational logic about what is best for the majority of people. Well that is where we are now - did you see the last Olympics - have you seen all the 3rd world illegals invading 'woke progressive' 1st world countries - what as absolute farce. Trump and all the successful right wing politicians and causes (like Brexit), are becoming more the normal, and those who are not 'normal' and their 'feelings' are being more and more ignored. Things are changing for the better - it wont be always perfect - but it will be better.

Says the bloke who stated about Expats on this forum - quote ;- "You forgot to mention how spiteful these idiots are. Fancy getting bent out of shape just because people are enjoying themselves." When I threw a little sarcasm at you for making that comment, you not only did not get it - but when told what it meant you run away screaming 'troll'. Now that is the literal definition of the Pot calling the Kettle black. Maybe the term Stones and Glass Houses rings a bell mate. Thanks for the laugh.

sharpest tool in the shed?

You still have not 'got it' have you? Any ideas yet - or is that dope addled brain still not working.

For some inane reason silly ignorant and stupid people feel the need to 'follow' things that are patentably not true or cannot be disproven. Whether it be some form of religion or astrology or climate change or woke liberalism or no borders or free gaza or gay rights or the latest shampoo that is made from orangutan's urine, they want to believe in something and they need to be seen supporting something and protesting against something. It is like they need to feel they are doing something as a form of narcissistic virtue signaling - but personally I dont understand why some people are like this. But I do know that they started getting louder and more demanding ever since the Vietnam War and Berlin and USSR protests succeeded. Nowadays they all want and demand that the world change to suit their own idiotic beliefs. They are IMO exactly like those religious fanatics that kill people who did not agree with their religious beliefs. Whether that be Christians in the past or Muslims now - they are all demanding their views be accepted by others - and they are happy to use force and that includes use of legal means, to force their opinions and views on others. Some things are a fad and last a while and then peter out - but some of them become a cult and they last a long time and theose who 'believe' will do anything to keep that cult alive. There is one fact that shows which ones are real (Vietnam War etc) and which ones are not and that what they want is wrong. Proof. They cannot provide any proof. They have feelings and opinions - and their delusional minds justify that to themselves that these are facts - it is called cognitive bias. There has been claims of climate disasters going back to the 70s and the fact that they have not happened is proof that it is a cult - and I for one do not believe in cults.

That was you on the bus wasn't it? It sure looked like you. Maybe I have been smoking too much weed and the old brain aint working so well anymore.

Like I told you last week mate - jerking off in the bus in front of other people is not acceptable - and we dont care how much you are enjoying yourself.

Good question - wait to see what they do - proposal then talk then committee then agreed payments then over to the public servants - then some time later (1 week to 5 years) there will be great fanfare and it is then approved within a week and takes effect immediately. Enforcement? Another process altogether - this one will start quickly (for media stories) but it will eventually include discussions over the amount of agreed payments.

I agree - but I think as a result of the very negative social media comments by Thais and Tourists about the issue, there will be a crackdown by the Police - once it is declared a controlled substance. At the moment anything that is keeping the Chinese tourists away is being addressed - and this is one of them. How long it will last - who knows - but in the early days it would be wise to keep the old noggin under the radar.

I must have not made that clear - my bad. The only 12 months non-immigration 'Retirement Visa' available from a home country is the O-A Retirement Visa. The 12 months O Retirement Visa is only available when you are in Thailand. Yes you can get a 3 month 'Retirement Visa' in your home country (some of them) but is is not the full O Non-Immigrant Visa - you have to then apply for the full 12 month Visa as the basis of your extension to stay in the country for 12 months.

He did - and I did not even start to read it. And as you suggest I have blocked him.

I agree 100% and have done what you suggested mate. Unbelievable.

He is a nutter mate - and he has totally destroyed the Aussie forum - he dominates every issue and refuses to shut up. Blocked him.
