  1. Costs of a UK will using a solicitor vary enormously depending upon the solicitor concerned and the complexity of the estate. A rough figure might be between GBP 500 and GBP 1,000. As for your Thai estate, you would be intestate. I believe that stepchildren are not on the list of statutory heirs. Your wife (assuming you have a legal marriage, not a village or temple one) would inherit your Thai estate. However, better to make a separate will covering your Thai assets to make things absolutely clear.
  2. I guess you missed the animal cruelty and his hiring a large number of Thai police officers for a game of hide and seek.
  3. He has a non-B visa and work permit based upon employment by My Mate Nate Studios Ltd.. Source: https://www.khaosodenglish.com/news/crimecourtscalamity/crime-crime/2017/07/17/mate-nate-charged-railway-obstruction-photos/
  4. Not run again and miss the opportunity of selling vast amounts of overpriced tat to his ardent followers? Don't believe it.
  5. Au contraire. Have you never heard of being "egg bound"?
  6. This website will almost exclusively used by people outside Thailand. The Thai authorities can only block sites accessed in country or are hosted here.
  7. Long gone are the days when only sailors and prostitutes in the UK had tattoos. Either that, or there are a hell of a lot more sailors and prostitutes than I ever thought possible.
  8. Just a suggestion, but if the tags are useful (which, personally, I doubt), why not move them to after the topic titles? That would alleviate the problem.
  9. The new "tags" in the News forum are unhelpful. Previously one could scan down the list of topics. Now one's eyes have to dart left and right to accommodate the varying length of the tags. It slows down reading and reduces comprehension.
  10. You're far to mealy-mouthed with your words. He's not a "sex pest", he's a rapist. He's not a "cheater" but an adulterer (many times over). And to be honest, I'm not sure he's a "shameless liar". Definitely shameless, but does he even know that the garbage he spouts is actually lies? I suspect he lacks the self awareness to know.
  11. Nope. They did it because God in his infinite wisdom commanded it. No need for logic. "The pig is also unclean; although it has a divided hoof, it does not chew the cud. You are not to eat their meat or touch their carcasses." Deuteronomy 14:8 "For the generations to come every male among you who is eight days old must be circumcised" Genesis 17:12
  12. Given the recent death of the supreme pontiff I thought it might be appropriate to post a link to a video that helps explain the true, profound nature of Roman Catholicism.
  13. A common misbelief. "frequent marijuana use is associated with the development of physiological dependence, a distinct withdrawal syndrome, and addiction." https://americanaddictioncenters.org/marijuana-rehab/is-it-addictive#:~:text=frequent marijuana use is associated with the development of physiological dependence%2C a distinct withdrawal syndrome%2C and addiction.
  14. So you and Trump have something in common: incapable of reading more than a paragraph or two.
  15. It's in the name: chicken balls. Only made from parts of male chickens which are a.k.a. cocks.
  16. In the past these sorts of changes have been grandfathered. Probably nothing to worry about for people already with a visa, even if these rumours are true.
  17. At 224 lb and height of 6'3" he's a fine specimen of humanity. Plus he can ace an incredibly challenging cognitive ability test. He'll be around for a while yet. Let's hope he lives long enough to find himself behind bars. That said, the moment he finds himself in a courtroom he'll undoubtedly suddenly develop the need for a wheelchair and claim dementia.
  18. Trump should do the world a favour and get rid of another menace, himself.
  19. I believe that only applies to people in the UK. Those living abroad can't pay on line.
  20. That's shown when you check your National Insurance record online.
  21. My attempt to pay voluntary NI contributions hasn't gone smoothly. Last October I 'phoned the Future Pension Centre. They checked my record and told me to complete the online form "Apply to pay voluntary National Insurance contributions when abroad", which I did. I then checked when I could expect to receive a reply, and discovered it would be in January. In March I submitted a complaint saying that I hadn't received a response. After a bit of toing and froing I got details of the bank account through which I would pay and told to give my NI number and name as the reference - no PIN number. Now they've got my money, how are they going to know which years to allocate it to? And how should the process have worked? Any thoughts? Thanks
