  1. Who said nurses were selling food bank food to buy drugs?
  2. If that is the attitude then us British that still live here don't want you here. For Gods sake nurses are paid so badly they have to go to food banks. Your son doesn't know what he is talking about. May be a few do but "many" is simply rubbish.
  3. The first thing I did was get the lights adjusted. Main beam was set to pick low flying aircraft.
  4. The trouble is I am not sure how I can make a garage understand what it is I want done ie improve the lights. As far as I can see judging by the fall of light on the road by other cars all Thai cars have crappy lights. May be they put cheap under powered bulbs in to save money.
  5. Yes I saw how to polish plastic lenses. To be honest whilst the lenses are faded I don't think that is the issue. Main beam is ok. Just dipped lights are useless.
  6. I am suprised how fast it accelerates. gf also has an Altis and that takes all day to accelerate. The gf is constantly telling me to slow down.
  7. The head light glass is faded and scratched anyway so may be a good idea to change the whole thing.
  8. Early last year I bought a used Altis to use when I am on holiday. Car is ok, very fast, no idea the size of the engine. But the lights are awful. Main beam is ok but dipped is little better that driving on side lights. I dislike driving the car any distance after dark. Where there are no street lights it is dangerous unless I can use the main beam. Can I get an LED conversion? If so are there special lighting suppliers and the likely cost?
  9. Thinking about it arriving passengers shouldn't be mixed with departing passengers so I assume all passengers in transit should be cleared. There was a case a few years back at a UK airport where arriving passengers some how got mixed in with departing passengers. They had to clear the whole terminal then re-clear all the departing passengers. Took hours.
  10. I wonder if people think if they will be one of the small percentage just before they light up a cigarette, drive fast or make a risky overtake, pop down to the shops on the motor bike without a crash helmet, travel in a Thai bus.
  11. The NHS is pushing the shingles vaccination like mad at the moment. I assume on the basis is it better and cheaper to vaccinate rather than treat this particularly nasty disease later.
  12. Shush. Don't state the bleeding obvious. And the EV bearings.
  13. Yes I get that. I was always suspicious of the ones that immediately wanted an email address. I assume before the site closed down the profile. And exchange photos so they can build up their library. And the ones who wanted your skype account, who uses skype to chat now days?
  14. I was on a dating site a year ago and contacted quite a few Thai women and so many scammers. I usually just blocked them but one I played along. Talking about much she would want in a relationship and she demanded 140,000 baht a month. I never even met her and she even said as we were now friends could I sent her 33,000 baht a month until we met when it would go up to 140,000.
  15. Untrained so probably looked left right and left again not right left and right again. But then I looked at the video again. It appears that she looked left as she approaches the stop line, doesn't look right at all and just pulls out. Seems totally surprised at the motor bike skidding in front of her.
  16. She did just ride off, as it happens.
  17. Staples Corner to be a bit more exact. Or nearly Staples Corner.
  18. I didn't notice Bicester Village on the itinary. Mind you if you are the PM I guess you aren't after discount stuff.
  19. Did you see his latest youtube clip extolling the virtues of migrants and how much they contribute to the economy. If he is so English why can't he give some praise to how much English people contribute to the economy. And Scots, Welsh and Northern Irish of course.
  20. hahahahahahaha oh <deleted> I just split my sides laughing.
  21. Yes a great negotiator. "During his campaign, Donald Trump said repeatedly that he would be able to end the war between Russia and Ukraine in 24 hours upon taking office."
  22. Are the diesel engines running on diesel or will they get some back street workshop to knock up a CNG kit.
  23. The US has an $11.9 billion annual surplus with the UK but it is the UK that is freeloading and needs tariffs applied. China should have tariffs because of the trade deficit. The UK should have tariffs applied because of the trade surplus. The US should trade fairly or not at all. Sorry US you can't have it both ways.
